Ditch the Crackers: 20 Gluten-Free Party Snacks Recipe Roundup

A box of crackers and a few types of cheese may be one of the easiest party snacks ever, but what do you do if some of your guests can't eat the crackers? When making gluten-free nibbles for a party, we gravitate toward foods that are inherently gluten-free, like popcorn, nuts, vegetables and cheese. Crisped, toasted, spiced and stuffed, these snacks are so good, no one will miss the crackers.

2 Kale chips
3 Wasabi-toasted nori crisps
4 Spicy baked plantain chips

Nuts & Other Nibbles
5 Roasted chickpeas
6 Baked, spiced "Corn Nuts"
7 Chez Panisse herbed almonds
8 Ina Garten's chipotle & rosemary spiced nuts

Popcorn

10 Za'atar popcorn
11 Maple-butter spiced popcorn
12 Bacon fat popcorn

Cheese
13 Goat cheese balls with herbs, pecans & bacon

The World's First Voice-Activated Popcorn-Shooter: The Popinator!

2012_09_21-Popinator.jpgI know what you're probably thinking. Why would you need an automatic popcorn-launcher when you can toss popcorn into your mouth perfectly well on your own? And to that I say: Why wouldn't you want a machine that uses the voice-activated command "Pop!" to shoot a piece of popcorn directly into your mouth? Still don't believe me? See it in action below.

Say the word "pop" to the Popinator and it will locate you based on the sound of your voice, and shoot a piece of popcorn at your mouth. As far as we know, only one prototype of the Popinator exists, at the headquarters of the company Popcorn, Indiana, but the inventors' enthusiasm about the machine's potential whether as a fun game or as the next logical step in popcorn convenience has me wondering if we'll see the Popinator on shelves someday soon.
