Here's your cheat sheet for the best tasting and easy-to-make healthy appetizers, hor d'oeuvres and finger foods to serve at your next Super Bowl or tailgate party.

Creamy Avocado Yogurt Dip Recipe

This healthy and simple Creamy Avocado Yogurt Dip is made with avocados, plain Greek yogurt, garlic, cilantro, lime, jalapeño, and ground cumin.

Ham & Cheese Pretzel Bites

YUM!!!!

Sriracha Garlic Wings

These delicious Sriracha garlic chicken wings can be made with common pantry ingredients. The key to Sriracha wings is marinating for at least 3 hours.

Better than Beer Nuts

Skip the peanuts and grab a handful of this. But do be careful, a handful of nuts is still a portion size, even if it's Football Sunday!

Guilt-free Chicken Nuggets

Most kids love McDonald’s Chicken McNuggets. I’m sure many grown-ups do too. But, they are so unhealthy! Happily, not my skinny ones! No deep frying

The skinny for 6 chicken nuggets only 203 calories, 4.7 grams of fat and 5 Weight Watchers points - score!!

Hot Asiago Crab Artichoke Dip

A lightened up creamy and cheesy baked dip loaded with crab, artichokes, and Asiago – and you’ll never miss the calories!

Spinach Artichoke Cups

Individual spinach artichoke dips prepared in wonton cups

Picadillo Poppers

If you want a sauce to serve with these Mexican bites, thin one 8-ounce carton of sour cream with a little milk and stir in 1/2 cup ground toasted almonds or pecans, a squeeze of lime juice, and a pinch of ground cinnamon.

Avocado Hummus

I've seen avocado hummus at the market lately and thought, "I need to make that." Then I'd forget until I saw it again the next week. This happened my last four trips to store. This week, I actually bit the bullet.

Crispy Baked Zucchini Fries

A fun way to serve zucchini – as crispy zucchini fries!

Individual Seven-Layer Dips

We keep it pretty minimal when it comes to toys for our kids on Christmas but yet somehow I feel like there's STUFF everywhere! Anyone else feel this way? We're swimming in Legos over here and just when I think I've cleaned up the last...

Mozzarella, Cherry Tomato and Basil Skewers

I don't know about you, but i'm so craving simple italian food these days. Its something about italian, when made right, that is so amazingly tasty. You just need really good ingredients. This is my favorite "go to" snack. Little...

Take The Devil Out Of Your Eggs

Egg season is approaching and, frankly, I LOVE deviled eggs. Most deviled egg recipes feature mayonnaise as a primary ingredient.

Skinny Buffalo Wings

These Skinny Buffalo Wings are a great substitution for traditional full-fat wings on game day!

Guilt-Free Cauliflower Pizza Bites

Check out my Guilt-Free Pizza Bites (Cauliflower Pizza Bites). This recipe is gluten-free, low-carb, higher in protein, guilt-free, low in fat, high in fiber and freaking the best craving solution ever!

Perfect man food, serve them on skewers!

Guacamole Bruschetta

As a California girl at heart, I will find any excuse to enjoy homemade guacamole. This time I’ve put a spin on my traditional guac by serving it up as the centerpiece in this simply delicious bruschetta recipe.

Skinny Mini Lasagna Cups

Hi, and welcome! Raise your hand if you like lasagna?  *raises hand* Raise your hand if you find it a pain to make?  *raises hand* Raise your hand if you think traditional lasagna is high in calori...

Sliders with Shallot-Dijon Relish

These mini-burgers make fun and tasty appetizers. Although we enjoyed them on Parker House rolls, they would also be tasty on small dinner rolls or sweet Hawaiian bread rolls.
