Vegetarian Junk Food: PERFECT for Green Super Bowl Parties
Throwing or attending a green Super Bowl Party this year?
Serve some tasy vegetarian junk food.
Wait...vegetarian junk food? Yup, that's what I said.
Check out these great vegetarian junk food recipes!
Ha, I bet you thought that vegetarians were just all health freaks that sat around eating nuts and veggies all day?
Not necessarily.
Vegetarians, like anyone else, have plenty of junk food options to choose from.
I'm not saying that these recipes are healthy by any stretch of the imagination (they are junk food!), but they're definitely better than regular junk food full of processed sugars and hydrogenated vegetable oil.

You Won't Even Know the Difference
Give one of these vegan or vegetarian recipes a shot. Here's a fun idea, don't tell anyone at the party that it's a vegan or vegetarian dish...
...I seriously doubt they'll even know the difference!
What's your favorite vegan or vegetarian comfort food?
you're welcome. it was an awesome article! thanks for clearing up the difference between ganache and magic shell...I edited the post to reflect your comment. you rock!
thanks for the link to my site for the Magic Shell recipe. A minor quibble- it is *not* ganache. Those are two very different things. Vegan ganache does not contain coconut oil, but would be a vegan cream combined with chocolate instead.
Magic Shell has two states: hard and liquid. Ganache is more a state of soft.
