If your appetite for cannabis is high, the appetite for food following your smoke-out session will surely be too.
If pop-culture cannabis icons (such as Cheech and Chong) have taught us anything, it’s that tokers love good food.
For many years, debates amongst scholars over the best foods to eat while high have persisted, although, it’s a near-impossible conclusion to make in a laboratory setting.
If the truth must be known, there is no single-best snack or appetizer to satisfy post-high munchies, for a couple of reasons.
For one, dependent on the strain smoked, you may be in the mood for something savory, or, something sweet.
Sometimes, you may be in the mood for both (we’ve all been there).
Today, we’re presenting a definitive list of the most popular cannabis appetizers.
Spice up your munchy experience, review the appetizers below and prepare to tackle the munchies like never before with dishes that will leave no room for disappointment.
Supreme Pizza Nachos
This cannabis appetizer-favorite is likely giving you deja vu as you’ve likely dreamt of this dish in the past (well, here it is).
A magical combination of pizza and nachos has become a personal favorite of mine for satisfying my hunger pains and taste buds; it’s delicious, inexpensive, and easy to make
While the full recipe can be found here, the main ingredients you’ll need include an oven, pita chips, pizza-related toppings (of your choice), nachos, and of course, a pizza.
Loaded Baked Potato Quesadilla
Sorry to disappoint you, but you weren’t the first to have the idea of turning a baked potato into a quesadilla.
We too weren’t the first to incept the idea, so if you’d like, feel free to take the credit, if you desire. If you do, your friends will likely be as baked as the quesadilla so they won’t fact-check your claim.
It’s a simple recipe to make, doesn’t require too many ingredients, and can be made in as little as thirty minutes (follow directions closely).
Queso and Chips
How does creamy, warm, and delicious queso made with homemade salsa sound? If we guessed right, your answer should be “DELICIOUS”.
Queso is an underrated appetizer for those needing to satisfy cannabis-induced munchies.
The warm creamy consistency coupled with homemade salsa makes for a delicious snack that will surely over-satisfy hunger cravings.
Enjoy with friends and family and be sure to have a party-size bag of tortilla chips.
This queso recipe is one for the books, trust us, you’ll need plenty of chips.
Fried Cheese Curds
Did someone say fried cheese curds? Oh yes, we certainly did. Those on the West Coast know this recipe all too well.
If you’ve yet to have fried cheese curds you are missing out; that’s actually an understatement. For all practical purposes, consider them to be tiny-sized mozzarella sticks but with incredibly more flavor and a robust encrusted taste.
Chorizo, Potato, and Egg Burrito
Are you an early-morning toker that wants a quick pick-me-up appetizer that’s filling, delicious, and easily made? Well, search no further, here it is.
Whether for breakfast or lazy-couch smoke out sessions, this cannabis-smoker favorite is jam-packed with flavor.
Made with eggs, sausage, and potato, you’ll want to hang on to your burrito for dear life when grappling back to reality from 420 land.
French Toast Pizza
Some people believe that pizza is best cold, and I won’t argue with those that do, but the french toast pizza is anything but the standardized pizza that so many resort to.
There’s not much to say about this appetizer, it’s as delicious as it looks, tastes incredible, and will likely leave you wanting more (we warned you).
Butcher Sandwich
Recreating the original dish is unlikely, although, you can get pretty darn close.
A cooked steak, bakery-style bread, and your favorite condiment toppings are all you need to make an out-of-this-world sandwich that won’t disappoint you, your taste buds, or the hunger pains that make you feel you haven’t eaten in weeks.
SPAM and Cheese Ramen
Growing up, Ramen was one an all-time favorite of mine. From near-empty-pocket days to days I needed something quick to put together, Ramen was my go-to (cheap and easy).
Here’s a secretive recipe not too well-known by the masses, if you enjoy eating ramen, you will enjoy this appetizer.
This in-bag recipe only requires a couple of ingredients and since no dishware is required you won’t have to clean any on 4/21. How is that for an amazing recipe?
Kimchi Grilled Cheese
Grilled cheese sandwiches are a staple in American heritage. It’s also one of the pinnacle appetizers for tokers, for good reasons too.
It’s cheesy, bready, warm, and can be made by a 3-year-old (so under fair-to-partly-high conditions, you should have no troubles making one).
This recipe was created by Deuki Hong; a co-author of the popular Koreatown: A Cookbook. This fun twist on grilled cheese sandwiches was a needed one and made it increasingly more tasteful than an originally-made one.
A Granny Smith apple, nori seaweed, kimchi, Mt. Tam cheese, and Hawaiian rolls are all you need to make the most flavorful grilled cheese sandwich you’ve had. Oh, one other thing, don’t forget to layer the Hawaiian rolls with some gochujang mayonnaise; a recipe-must.
