Vegan Snacks for New Year's Eve
10 Vegan Snack Ideas for New Year's Eve | ElephantasticVegan.com

In this post, you’ll find everything you need for the perfect New Year’s Eve party: crackers, bread chips, vegan cheese sticks, hummus, guacamole, and many, many more recipes! These are real crowd-pleasers!

Vegan Snacks for New Years Eve

If you’re looking for vegan recipe ideas for New Year’s Eve.. you’re in luck! In this post, I’ve collected my all-time favorite snacks that will keep your guests and yourself happy.

For me, parties are all about snacking (and drinks, of course) and New Year’s Eve isn’t an exception.

I’ve provided some simple recipes for snacking (including my favorite cracker recipes), dips, as well as a recipe for a vegan chili – because what is a New Year’s Eve party without a huge pot of chili?! I’m sure your guests will love these party foods!

At the end of the post, I’ve also included links to two of my drink recipes if you still need some inspirations for booze.

Now I can only wish you a Happy New Year and I’m so excited for the next year! I do have amazing vegan recipes lined up, you do not want to miss those! Make sure you subscribe to my weekly newsletter so you get all the recipes delivered to your inbox!

Vegan Snacks and Finger Food

Homemade Crackers

I know you would be disappointed if crackers weren’t at the first spot of my New Year’s Eve Snacks Round-Up! Crackers are easy to make, the perfect crispy vehicle for all your dips and you can add pretty much any herbs and spices you want!

Vegan Cracker Recipes

These are some of my favorite homemade crackers: Vegan Everything Crackers, Za’atar Crackers, and Black & White Sesame Seed Crackers (follow the Everything Crackers recipe and only add black and white sesame seeds on top). And here are even more vegan cracker recipes!

Grissini & Breadsticks

Grissini are the fancy way to snack bread during a party! You can twist them or don’t! They will look cute either way.

sesame grissini breadsticks
Sesame Grissini / Breadsticks – Love the breadsticks at restaurants? You can now make your own sesame grissini at home with this easy recipe!
Vegan Za'atar Breadsticks served with vegan cheese sauce
Vegan Za’atar Breadsticks – These vegan Za’atar Breadsticks are the perfect party snack. They are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. So yummy! And you’ll only need 6 ingredients!

Pinwheels

I love how easy pinwheels are to make! They look much more complicated than they actually are! Promise! I always use store-bought vegan puff pastry dough and spread it with different sauces. Roll it in, slice it up, bake it, done.

Vegan Pizza Pinwheels with olives
Vegan Pizza Pinwheels – filled with vegan cheese and green olives! These are a must-make for literally any party!
Wild Garlic Pesto Snails | ElephantasticVegan.com
Wild Garlic Pesto Snails – filled with homemade wild garlic pesto and vegan parmesan!

Pumpkin Basil Pinwheels – these are a crowd-pleaser for sure!
Vegan Arugula Pesto Pinwheels | ElephantasticVegan.com
Vegan Arugula Pesto Pinwheels – similar to the Wild Garlic Pesto Pinwheels these are filled with homemade pesto.

Pretzels & Pretzel-Style Snacks

With a simple baking soda bath, you can make any bready goods into pretzel-style goods! Here are a couple of my favorite ideas:

Vegan Pretzel Garlic Knots | ElephantasticVegan.com
Pretzel Garlic Knots – When you can’t decide between Pretzel Knots and Garlic Knots and you end up making vegan Pretzel Garlic Knots – and you don’t regret it one bit…
Vegan Soft Pretzels
Soft-Baked Pretzels – Top them with coarse pretzel salt for the ultimate finish.
Vegan Mini Pretzel Pizzas with Cider Cheese Sauce
Mini Pretzel Pizzas – with Cider Cheese Sauce and caramelized onions. If you love pretzels, you have to try these!

Mini Calzone

Mini calzones are the party-friendly version of pizza! But beware, these vegan pizza pockets will be devoured faster than you can look!

Vegan Mini Calzones | ElephantasticVegan.com
Vegan Mini Calzones – filled with mushrooms, spinach, and homemade vegan cheese sauce!

Vegan Cheese Sticks

Oh my god. Cheese Sticks were one of my guilty pleasures before I went vegan. Now, they are still my guilty pleasure because I’ve been making these using a vegan cheese block. Easy cheesy! (sorry)

Vegan Cheese Sticks | ElephantasticVegan.com
Vegan Cheese Sticks – Deep-Fried Cheese – is there anything better?! I’ve used a store-bought vegan cheese block to make these.

Bread Chips

Potato Chips aren’t the only chips you can serve at parties. These homemade bread chips are the perfect alternative!

Crispy Bread Chips in Spinach Hummus
Bread Chips – coated in garlic and herb oil and baked until perfectly crispy. Serve with hummus for example!

Edamame – The healthy option!

If you want to offer a healthier option for your guests, Edamame is the perfect choice!

Edamame – This is a simple recipe for basic Edamame (boiled soybeans in the pod). With only 3 ingredients – this is the easiest snack or appetizer ever.

Easy Vegan Dips

Hummus

I know, I know, I know. Hummus. Classic. But there’s a reason why it’s at every buffet/party. Hummus is amazing, easy and quick to make, plus you can add whatever spices and herbs you want to make it unique! Here are my favorites:

Cracker dipping into Homemade Hummus | ElephantasticVegan.com
Homemade Hummus with parsley – I consider this one a very basic hummus recipe that leaves enough room to add your own twist!
Oil-Free Spinach Hummus with crispy Bread Chips
Oil-Free Spinach Hummus – Make your hummus green by adding fresh spinach! This vegan, oil-free, and gluten-free spinach hummus is perfect to enjoy with crackers, veggies, or bread chips.
Roasted Pumpkin Hummus
Roasted Pumpkin Hummus – Serve the beautiful golden hummus with homemade crackers for a real crowd-pleasing snack!

Vegan Cheese Sauce

You don’t need dairy to make an amazing ooey-gooey cheese sauce.

Vegan Nooch Cheese Sauce with tortilla chips
Vegan Cheese Sauce – no nuts, no soaking, no blender. This Vegan Cheese Sauce is mind-blowing!

Salsa

Salsa is refreshing, colorful, easy to make, and a must-have at a party!

Easy Pineapple Salsa with tortilla chips
Easy Pineapple Salsa – You’ll only need 5 ingredients for this Pineapple Salsa.

Guacamole

There’s no party without guacamole. Serve it with crackers, tortilla chips, or any of the snacks above.

Guacamole | ElephantasticVegan.com
Guacamole – it’s a classic, and it’s so fast to make! My guacamole recipe is party-friendly: no onions, no cilantro. Of course, if everyone is on board (or if you just don’t care about your guests), you CAN add them in.

Crowd-Pleasing Chili con TVP

I usually make one large pot of stew for each party. Keep it on low heat throughout the night, so if anyone feels hungry, they can help themselves to a bowl of warming, filling chili with textured vegetable protein (soy granule).

Vegan Chili Sin Carne
Seriously, what’s a New Year’s Eve party without chili?!

Cocktails and Drinks are important, too.

If you’re still looking for awesome drinks to serve at the party, make sure you check out my Watermelon Amaretto Bowls and these awesome Pineapple Coconut Cocktails.

    You are the queen of vegan snack foods, Bianca! We have no plans for New Year’s Eve (with 3 young kids, we’ll be partying by ourselves at home, haha) but I think it would be fun to make all of these snacks instead of dinner :D
