With spring around the corner, it’s the perfect time to refresh your snack game. Whether you're celebrating St. Patrick’s Day or the first day of spring, veggie-forward snacks are the best way to bring color and crunch to your plate, while also being greener for the environment.
Here’s a roundup of our favorite healthy snack recipes to celebrate the season. Eating green has never tasted so good!
BBQ Chicken Salad
A salad that’s smoky, creamy and crunchy? Yes please! This super-green BBQ chickpea salad will be a crowd pleaser at all your spring events with its homemade vegan ranch dressing and crispy chickpeas. Using Kibo Chickpea Chips as “croutons” adds an incredible crunch and an extra 6 grams of protein.
Chips and Guacamole
No springtime celebration is complete without a bowl of fresh guacamole! This guac recipe calls for all things green: avocados, jalapenos, cilantro, limes, and olive oil. Serve with our perfectly scoopable Kibo Chickpea Chips, hardy enough to stand up to your favorite dips. We love the Pico de Gallo flavor pairing here!
Jalapeño Popper Bites
These deconstructed jalapeño popper bites make the perfect canapes for any green-themed party and come together in a snap. Simply mix together cream cheese, jalapeños, bacon (optional), and onions and spread on top of your favorite flavor of Kibo Lentil Chips. For extra spice in your bite, we like Spicy Ranch.
Celery Cucumber Salad
Full of garden-fresh veggies, this celery cucumber salad makes the perfect spring side to any meal. The ginger dressing adds a mouth-watering tanginess to the crispy vegetables. Lightly crush a bag of Kibo Pico De Gallo Chickpea Chips to add the perfect crunch.
Vegan Dill Pickle Dip
Looking for an easy green recipe to wow your St. Patty’s guests? Look no further than this dill pickle dip. It’s tangy, creamy, and best of all, vegan! Pair with light and crispy Kibo Lentil Chips for a match made in heaven.
Herbed Baba Ghanoush
If you’re in the mood for Mediterranean this spring, homemade baba ghanoush is easy to make and tastier than the store-made stuff. The addition of fresh herbs like basil, rosemary, parsley, and mint adds a touch of green and a fresh, bright flavor to the dip. We like the Mediterranean Herbs flavor of our Kibo Chickpea Chips for this pairing.
Zucchini Fries
These zucchini fries are the tastiest and most guilt-free fries you’ll ever eat! Our recipe uses Kibo Lentil Chips to create delicious, protein-filled “breading” without all the grease. Serve with your favorite marinara dipping sauce!
Vegan Ceviche
Craving something fresh and light? Give citrusy vegan ceviche a try. With loads of fresh avocados, cilantro, and tomatoes, this recipe makes an easy, balanced meal when served with our Kibo Lentil Chips.
Creamy Tofu Avocado Dip
Tired of guacamole? This creamy tofu avocado dip is a great alternative to use up your ripe avocados and sneak some more protein into your diet. To top it off, this dip can be made using just a blender. Garnish with lime zest or pickled jalapenos for an extra pop of green, and serve with Kibo Lentil Chips.
