Clean Eating Appetizers?

Improvised
Posts: 925 Member
Hi,
I've been wanting to throw a little get together with my friends. I'm trying to eat healthier recently. The only thing is, I LOVE serving appetizers, rather than an actual meal, but the only thing I can think of is sliced fruit and veggies, lol.
Any recipes or tips would be appreciated.

Hummus, yum. And bruschetta. Whole grain pita slices for dipping.0

- Spinach dip
- hummus with whole wheat crackers
- cut up pitas and bake them and you can use them as chips with salsa or other dips
- tortillas with some low fat cream cheese, grated cheese and cut up peppers with green onions. You roll up the tortillas and bake for about 8 minutes and then cut them and arrange on a plate...very yummy and nice to look at.0 -

Slice cucumber
Top with smoked salmon and a dollop of the yogurt/dill combo.

Dolmades are stuffed grape leaves! Yummy Greek recipe!
I was going to suggest some nice vegetarian spring rolls! Just get the won-ton or spring roll wrappers; slice up carrots, cucumber, red bell pepper, and avocado into matchstick shapes; add some bean sprouts and cilantro; wrap them all up and seal the edges with a bit of water. Serve with chili sauce or soy sauce for dipping!0 -
