From crave-worthy dips to bold Mediterranean twists on game-day classics, these easy Super Bowl snacks are the kind of recipes guests will request long after the final whistle! They won’t just remember the score, they will remember your game day snacks too.
I may not be the biggest sports fan, but my husband, Saba, is! If there’s one thing I’ve learned after years of hosting game day parties, it’s this: people may forget the final score, but they never forget the food. Superbowl snacks should be bold, generous, and easy enough to manage that nobody is stuck in the kitchen, missing the fun.
Of course, because this is still me, these Super Bowl snack ideas still lean Mediterranean. They’re healthy options that incorporate some Mediterranean Diet principles, but the flavors are big and the snacking vibes are strong. If you want some help making healthy Superbowl snacks, your friends and family will hover over and talk about long after the last whistle, I’ve got you!
Chips and Dips (Because It’s Not a Party Without Them)
Whipped Ricotta Dip with Pistachios, Olives, and Harissa Oil
A new favorite, this dip is a combination of creamy whipped ricotta with briny olives, herbs, and crunchy pistachios. Everyone will want to know what’s in the final drizzle of spicy harissa oil!
Creamy Whipped Feta Dip
This ultra-creamy whipped feta is salty, tangy, and irresistibly scoopable. At my house, it’s the must-have dip. Good thing I can make it minutes or hours ahead of time, which is exactly what I want when hosting. Set it out with warm pita or crunchy veggies and watch it disappear.
Shrimp Ceviche
This zesty combination of citrus-marinated shrimp with creamy avocado, tomato, jalapeño, and fresh cilantro is a bright, refreshing appetizer that’s easy to prep ahead and perfect for snacking.
Baked Pita Chips
Crispy, golden, and sturdy enough to handle the heartiest dips, homemade baked pita chips are a Super Bowl MVP. They’re inexpensive, endlessly snackable, and far better than anything from a bag. Best of all, you can bake them a day ahead and focus on the fun.
Layered Hummus Dip
Creamy hummus with colorful toppings easily feeds a crowd. For hosts, it’s a low-effort, high-impact dish that looks like you tried much harder than you did.
10-Minute Citrus Avocado Salsa
My Mediterranean twist on guacamole, this chunky avocado dip is a welcome contrast to heavier game-day fare. Citrus keeps it lively, while the creamy avocado makes it feel like a festive guacamole. It is one of the first sides to go!
Wings, Nachos, and Finger Foods
Mediterranean Chicken Nachos
These aren’t your average nachos! Pita chips are loaded with seasoned chicken, Mediterranean toppings, and a drizzle of creamy feta dressing in place of the melted cheese; they’re built for serious snacking.
Air Fryer Chicken Wings with Harissa Hot Honey
Make this recipe for anyone who loves a classic buffalo wing. Using the air fryer makes wings healthier (and less messy), while the sweet-heat of the hot honey harissa sauce is exciting and a little unexpected. These wings vanish quickly, so consider doubling the batch!
Baked Wings with Tzatziki Sauce
Oven-baked chicken wings paired with cool, garlicky tzatziki strike the perfect balance of rich and refreshing. They’re lighter than fried wings but still snack-worthy and perfect for the big game. For hosts, they’re hands-off and easy to scale for a crowd.
Greek Meatballs (Keftedes)
My recipe for juicy Greek meatballs is always a hit at parties. Serve them with toothpicks for effortless snacking. They can be made ahead and reheated or kept warm in a crockpot which makes them a stress-free Super Bowl staple.
Greek Salad Skewers
Add a little something extra to your veggie tray with these colorful salad skewers. They bring some freshness and a pop of color to any spread of snacks. No cooking required!
Easy, Crunchy Snacks
Roasted Chickpeas
Crunchy, spiced roasted chickpeas are the kind of snack people keep reaching for without realizing it. They’re inexpensive and a perfect healthy (and gluten-free! and vegan!) option for grazing.
Stovetop Popcorn
An underrated party snack! Why buy bagged popcorn when it’s so easy to make at home? A drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of Mediterranean spices make it party-worthy.
Spiced Nuts
Mixed nuts are ideal for setting out early and letting guests nibble all night. This version, made with honey and Aleppo pepper, is a particularly good Mediterranean combo.
