50 tasty snack recipes
Even before the coronavirus pandemic, global cooking trends were showing an uptick in people cooking at home. Gallup and Cookpad's latest report published Dec. 17, 2020, showed that through 2019, a growing number of people around the world were cooking at home rather than going out or eating pre-cooked meals.
In the U.S., the swelling popularity of at-home meal prep subscriptions from Blue Apron to Hello Fresh! and the growing prevalence of grocery delivery underscore a renewed interest in prepping meals at home. Then as COVID-19 spread, mandatory restaurant shutdowns and capacity limits drove a dramatic jump in home cooking—not to mention demand for recipes and sales of things like yeast and kitchen appliances.
But while the thought of home cooking conjures images of meal times and dessert, many of us revert quickly to store-bought when it comes to appetizers and snacks, from grocery store hummus to frozen spinach artichoke dip. That may be about to change, as Stacker has compiled a list of appetizer and snack recipes from Allrecipes.
Keep reading to see if any of your go-to snacks and appetizers made this list of straightforward dishes you can try at home.
