Great ideas!! And thanks for the reminder on the Beanitos! I had seen these somewhere a while back and meant to check around in the stores around here, then I forgot about them. Most likely, due to where I live, I won't find them, but I can order them online. They have different flavors, do you have a recommendation on which one is best or which you like?

Thanks!

1. Deviled eggs, if your sleeve likes eggs.< /p>

2. Cucumber slices (instead of crackers) with chicken salad, hummus, or tuna salad for dipping.

3. Chili!!

4. Roasted nuts--just take some nuts, a little olive oil, whatever herbs or spices sound good, mix, and put on a cookie sheet in a 400 degree oven until they're lightly toasted--watch carefully, as they can burn.

5. Mozzarella and cherry Tomato skewers with pesto to dip.

6. If your local store carries "Beanitos," some of those with bean dip or cheese dip or other high-Protein dip.

7. Veggie sticks with ranch-style Greek yogurt dip.

8. Cold shrimp with cocktail or remoulade sauce--yum!

Hey y'all:

Beanitos are "chips" made of Beans instead of corn. They are higher in Protein and wow are they good! I like the pinto bean and flax (don't knock 'em--they really are good!), and I like the cheddar flavor, too. I haven't tried the chipotle bbq, but the regular black bean ones are delicious, too. My favs are the plain pinto and flax, though. They taste like a regular chip with a very, very mild taco flavor. Yum! Here's their website: http://www.beanitos.com.

[Dooter 1,457]

These ALL sound so good! I'm almost pissed that Im gonna get full off just a few bites. I will let you guys know what I made and how it turned out.

So, what'd you end up serving?

I think you can order them on their website or Amazon or vitacost.

Thanks Kelly I will check it out!

@Vance it really is!! It's very lo cal and its high in Protein. I do consider it a guilty pleasure because of the corn, but heck - it could be a lot worse right? :smile1:

I wanted to let you know we made this last Sunday! YUMMY!!!! Thanks so much for sharing!! We are keeping this one.

Great! It is wonderful, and can even be considered a nice winter comfort food.

I'm too late for Super Bowl - but I normally serve a Buffalo Wing Dip (super fattening) and this year I created a Buffalo Wing Chowder instead which was delicious and SO great on my sleeve - as Soup generally is for me.
