21 Day Fix Appetizers

Buffalo Chicken DipThis recipe is mainly a red with some blue that you can easily leave out if you don’t want to spare it! I love eating this with raw veggies, but readers have used it to top salads, for pizzas, and they’ve even eaten it by itself!Instant Pot, Slow Cooker, and Oven Directions are in the post.

These Savory Dips are counted as proteins! Use these recipes or branch out and be creative. I love making a bowl of dip and adding fresh veggies–and I find that other partygoers appreciate having something healthy to eat!

Mediterranean Roasted VeggiesA great side if you know a meal will be served, or bring along some toothpicks and cut the veggies small to use as an appetizer.

Spinach and Artichoke DipAnother recipe that’s considered a protein because of the Greek yogurt and cottage cheese.

Buffalo Chicken Lettuce WrapsA little tough to transport already made, but I’d bring these to a party deconstructed for sure!
