DASH diet & Superbowl party?

If you are on the DASH diet and have any interesting recipes for a party I would love if you shared them!

My brother-in-law is on it and its really working for him and I know if he eats too much junk he feels ill so I'm looking for some interesting recipes!

If you don't know what the DASH diet is, its basically a healthy diet with a lot of vegetables and fruit, very limited salt and sugar, and a reasonable amount of protein.

Some of these appetizers looked yummy although I'm sorry to report I don't have any experience with these or any original recipes. Hope you get some answers!
Good luck

Seeing what is actually under the hood..?

I am a surgeon assistant in a major hospital in Chicago.
You would not believe what I see. I see first hand during by-pass procedures, the sludge that is caked up inside the arteries from an individual who consumes a diet saturated with animal fats. The funny thing? In my entire career of 18 years, I have yet to have had the opportunity, if you can call it that, to have a vegetarian/vegan admitted for such a procedure. Food for thought....
(And I do eat meat by the way) Seriously considering otherwise. Does anyone here know of a good informative website that has recipes for vegan food?
Thanks
