It’s a bummer, but true. Traditional door-to-door trick or treating probably isn’t happening for most of us this year. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t have a little bit of fun this Halloween. Whether you’re planning to dress up in costume and walk your dog around the neighborhood or stay inside and watch scary movies, you’ll need some snacks to keep the festivities going late into the night. Why not make this Vegan Halloween Snack Board?!
You might notice a critical component missing from this Vegan Halloween Snack Board. Candy! While there are many vegan candies out there, I wanted to keep this snack board healthy. If you want to enjoy a handful of Jolly Ranchers or Now and Laters on the side, go for it! PETA has a good list of surprisingly vegan candy they regularly update on their website. To start making this board, you’ll first want to make the mandarin orange pumpkins. How adorable are these little guys?
Then you’ll scoop your dips into bowls. I used a package of our Garlic & Herb Cheeze Spread and some guacamole. You know, because it sort of looks like slime? I think you can see where I’m going with this. I picked up some goldenberries from the grocery store, which are sweet and tangy and super delicious. If you can’t find them, swap them out for blackberries or your favorite fruit.
Next, add clusters of grapes to the board. I like snipping the grapes into small clusters so they’re easy to grab without disturbing the surrounding components.
Petite carrots are great dippers for both guacamole and the Garlic & Herb Cheeze Spread.
Finally, add some pita crackers, tortilla chips, and popcorn to the board. They’re perfect for dipping or just plain crunching.
And there you have it! A Vegan Halloween Snack Board for your Halloween celebration at home this year. If you make this board, make sure you tag me on Instagram so I can see!
Peace.Love.Plants.
