We’ve got you covered with a lineup of slam-dunk snack ideas that will keep you cheering all tournament long!

1. Loaded Cauliflower Crust Nachos

Start your March Madness festivities with a healthier twist on a classic favorite. Start by baking Oggi’s cauliflower crust according to the package instructions and cutting it into small triangles. Then, top it with shredded cheese, black beans, diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños, and avocado. Pop it back into the oven until the cheese is melted. Finish with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.

2. Tortellini Mac and Cheese

Elevate your snack game with this comforting twist on the classic mac and cheese. Cook Oggi’s frozen tortellini according to the package instructions, then prepare a creamy cheese sauce by melting butter in a saucepan and whisking in flour. Gradually add milk and shredded cheddar cheese until it’s smooth. When it’s ready, stir in the cooked tortellini, and transfer to a baking dish. Lastly, you’ll top it with breadcrumbs and extra cheese and bake until golden.

3. Buffalo Cauliflower Bites

Put a spicy spin on a traditional game day snack with these addictive buffalo cauliflower bites. Coat bite-sized cauliflower florets in a mixture of buffalo sauce and melted butter, then bake until crispy and golden brown. Serve with celery sticks and ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.

4. Crispy Ravioli Poppers

Transform Oggi’s ravioli into crispy bite-sized poppers that are perfect for munching during the game. Start by cooking the ravioli according to the package instructions, then coating them in egg followed by seasoned breadcrumbs. Heat oil in a deep fryer or skillet and fry the tortellini until golden and crispy. Serve hot with a side of marinara or ranch dressing for dipping.

With this snack lineup, you’ll be the MVP of any March Madness party. Whether you’re craving something savory, cheesy, or downright indulgent, there’s a snack on this list for every craving. So grab your plate, settle into your favorite spot on the couch, and let the madness begin!
