It’s almost Super Bowl time! Just because you are vegetarian, doesn’t mean your game day food doesn’t have to taste good. No more plates of celery for us! This year, let’s make your meat-free Super Bowl eats as memorable as the commercials. Less time stressing, more time watching the game (or the commercials). Let’s kick off the party with a few of my vegetarian Super Bowl recipes that actually taste good!
Tara’s Tuesday Tips:
Top 10 Vegetarian Super Bowl Recipes that Actually Taste Good
Message to my non-vegetarian friends: just because we are vegetarian, that does not mean we do not enjoy football or foods that actually taste good.
So, if you want to put out a spread this game day that everyone can enjoy, be sure to include one of my favorite meatless recipes! I’ve compiled a list of hassle-free, yummy recipes for you to make for your favorite vegetarian party guest. Let’s do this.
Vegetarian Chili
Chili is always a crowd pleaser. This one can be made ahead of time and reheated just in time for the game. Leave a big pot on the stove with some bowls + toppings of dairy or vegan cheese, chips, hot sauce or sour cream. Definitely a winner.
Easy Black Bean Hummus Recipe
If you ask me, my ultimate party food is hummus. You can change up the flavors, the serving dishes, the chips or veggies or crackers that go with it. Inviting a vegetarian to your party? Definitely make hummus!
Try one of my other favorite hummus recipes:

Buffalo Cauliflower Pizza
Anything buffalo screams game day, vegetarian or not. This pizza can be made on a store-bought crust, is topped with an amazing homemade dressing, and can be prepped ahead of time and assembled when the game starts. Make this one!
Tempeh Sloppy Joes
Make me this if I come to your party! The instructions are easy to follow, you can change it up with by using different buns + use a variety of toppings. The best part is that you can prep the filling ahead of time and let your meatless friends make their sandwiches any time they want during the game!
Easy Vegan Taco Pasta
This one is just fun. It is even more fun if you put it in a football bowl, IMO. You wanted hassle free, this one is it! Choose any style pasta, put out a few jars of salsa for the top, maybe some chips or guac to go along with it, and you’ve got yourself some happy vegetarians.
Air Fryer BBQ Cauliflower (No Eggs!)
I know many of you will have your BBQ going on game day. If you want a vegetarian Super Bowl recipe that actually tastes good, put BBQ sauce on it! Cauliflower is just one way to use my recipe for Easy Homemade Vegan Barbeque Sauce. You could also make BBQ Chickpea Veggie Burgers or Air Fryer BBQ Chickpeas.
Avocado Corn Salad (Oil-Free!)
This is the most requested party food in the MVF house. Seriously the best salad you can serve. You can prep the corn ahead of time (or simply use a frozen bag of corn in place of the fresh cobs), chop everything up, and put it together when guests arrive. Make this!
Meatless Eggplant Meatballs (Vegan + Gluten Free!)
Who doesn’t love a meatball sandwich. I certainly do. However, I do not like meat. So, this is perfect. You can prep these eggplant meatballs several days in advance, cook them, and store them in your refrigerator until game day. On game day, heat them in your favorite sauce, cut up some bread + you are all set with a meatless meatball sub!
Need a vegetarian Super Bowl sauce recipe? Try one of these: 4-ingredient Spicy Marinara Sauce, Meatless Marinara Sauce, Habanero Jalapeño Hot Sauce Recipe.
Avocado Tomato Cucumber Pasta Salad
Everyone loves pasta. At the same time, the host of a party needs a few things on the to-do list that are easy. This one checks all the boxes: first of all it is vegetarian + vegan. Secondly, it is easy + hassle-free. Third of all, it is healthy. Ultimately, it can be prepped ahead of time, can be doubled or tripled to feed a crowd. Trust me on this one, it is so good!
Easy Air Fryer Nachos
Have you ever made nachos in your air fryer? Well, today is your day. For the pickiest of eaters nachos is perfect. You can have different chips, salsas, and toppings. Simply put your chips, meatless meat, and cheese in an air fryer tray or cake pan, air fry until hot, and apply toppings. Your vegetarian friends can make individual nacho plates in the air fryer without the concern that their food has any meat in it! Options for meatless meat crumbles include: Copycat Chipotle Sofritas, Tempeh Taco Meat. For the toppings you can choose from: Roasted Jalapeno Blender Queso (Dairy Free + Easy!), Vegan Potato Cheese Sauce (nut-free + oil-free!), Chuy’s Salsa Copycat Recipe, Habanero Jalapeño Hot Sauce Recipe.
Food For Thought 🏈
Whether or not you are a football fan, you might find yourself at a football party this weekend. If you are the guest, now you’ve got something to bring! On the other hand, if you are the host, remember your friends that don’t eat meat but do like food that actually tastes good! No more plates of cold vegetables for your vegetarian friends! As with any celebration, food is so much more than just food. Food brings us together around tables + TV’s this Sunday and every day. Above all, remember to appreciate all types of eaters and above all enjoy good food in the company of good people. Happy Super Bowl (and commercial watching) Sunday, fam!
All the best,
Tara 💚
