Actually, I bet those aren't low carb. I also love gherkins rolled in proscuitto but those aren't vegetarian! Heh :) toughie. cfmama 11-18-2009, 04:58 PM Can you do eggs? Deviled eggs would be a good choice. celery stuffed with laughing cow wedges fruit platter with yogurt beerab 11-18-2009, 05:03 PM fried zucchini :D cfmama 11-18-2009, 05:14 PM NUTS! A nut platter would be good! various cheeses and pickles nelie 11-18-2009, 05:23 PM One of my favorite things in the world (besides hummus) are roasted chickpeas. This is a really good recipe: http://viveleveganrecipes.blogspot.com/2007/10/tamari-roasted-chickpeas.html Only problem is I consider chickpeas finger food, not sure if others do as well :) You could also do grilled veggie kabobs with little skewers. nelie 11-18-2009, 05:29 PM Oh and I just had an idea but looks like someone beat me to it! Do you eat quinoa? You could make quinoa sushi. Here is one recipe I found for it: http://vegweb.com/index.php?topic=17493.0 CLCSC145 11-18-2009, 05:33 PM How about Caprese bites: A small piece of fresh mozzarella, a cherry tomato, and a basil leaf all speared on a toothpick. They look pretty on a platter and taste great. http://www.letschow.net/2009/08/03/simple-caprese-bites/ So easy! Oh yeah, and they are Christmas colors! kaplods 11-18-2009, 06:33 PM Spinach dip (the standard - drained and squeezed frozen spinach, Knorr soup mix, sour cream, mayo, waterchestnuts, green onions), but in a bowl instead of a bread bowl (I use light sour cream and Hellman's canola mayo - which is half the calories of regular). I double the spinach (it's more a spread than a dip consistency). Awesome with veggie dippers - slices of bell pepper, seedless cucumber, baby carrots, celery, baby bok choy (seperate the leaves), snow or snap pea pods, broccoli, cauliflower. walking2lose 11-18-2009, 07:10 PM How about Caprese bites: A small piece of fresh mozzarella, a cherry tomato, and a basil leaf all speared on a toothpick.

Those caprese bites sound great! :T paris81 11-18-2009, 11:04 PM Baba ganoush--it's like hummus but with roasted eggplant instead of chickpees--you can use veggies to dip instead of pita bread. ubergirl 11-18-2009, 11:30 PM One of my favorite things in the world (besides hummus) are roasted chickpeas.

I'm a low carber and while I'm not a vegetarian, I do like veggies. I may have to make this dip/spread for Turkey Day.
