While I was having my mini-vacay this weekend, I started to think about some real hard-hitting stuff. Like… What am I going to eat during the Super Bowl on Sunday?! Life changing, I know.
Either way, I was getting all excited about what food I could prepare for friends to snack on while watching the big game. I am admittedly not a big fan of football, but I am a big fan of looking cute in a jersey. Yes, I am that girl.
So here is what I came up with. I thought I would show you two of my “appetizer hacks” in my new Super Bowl Snack series. These appies seem really impressive to guests but are stupid easy to make. Let’s be real here. Nobody has time to spend hours prepping food that will be inhaled in less than a minute. AND, we need to maximize our time allotted for putting together cute outfits to watch the game in. Priorities, people.
Today I will show you one Part 1 of my Super Bowl Snack series, and I will post Part 2 on Sunday morning. (You will see why when I post!)
If you cant already tell from the photos, these are little Caprese Salad Poppers! They are low in calories and look/taste freaking amazing. All you do is buy the mini-bocconcini cheese, grape tomatos, and fresh basil. Go ahead and pop those bad boys on toothpicks like I did in the photos above.
In a little bowl mix together extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt. This will be your dip for the Caprese Salad Poppers! These are so fresh and healthy, and chances are they will be a nice refresher between the sips of beer that will undoubtedly be happening.
Hope you are just as excited about these little treats as I am!! Have a great rest of your week, and make sure you stay tuned for Super Bowl Snacks: Part 2 on Sunday morning <3

With a low car beer, that’s a nice appetiser for someone looking to not indulge in too many carbs on superbowl!
Sounds great to me!
What a fun (and yummy) idea! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for commenting Danette 🙂
Yes..please. My favorite snacks on one stick, I love it. How would you describe the taste of mini-bocconcini cheese? Is it like mozzarella?
Yes! Kind of like mozzarella, it is very mild 🙂
Oh WOW! How adorable are these? What a great, healthy and easy snack! I love how colorful they look! Great post 🙂 & thanks for sharing!
Thank you!! Yes they are definitely very colorful, a big part of the reason I love them!
Yummm, the combination of fresh mozza, tomato and basil is a winner. I like to wrap that all up in some prosciutto (for the less healthy days :P).

These make me hungry. Sometimes the easiest things in life are the best!
