New Year’s Eve is around the corner, and what better to serve at your gatherings than some fun, vegan appetizers? In this round-up you’ll find a variety of dips and finger foods ranging from light eats to the… not-so-healthy. Below, I’ve categorized them by dips, bites, and the rest (there will be some crossover)!

Vegan Dips!

Spicy, cheesy, rich, and oil-free options abound; having dips on hand is a great way to keep folks satiated but not stuffed. Plus, you can have fun with the dippers!

Minimalist Baker’s Spinach Artichoke Dip

White Bean Beer Fondue

Creamy Cauliflower Pesto Dip

Vegan Bites!

Food is cuter when it’s smaller, right? So that must mean it tastes better, too? I don’t think there’s scientific proof of this, but let’s just go with it. You can’t lose with the finger foods below!
