Handheld Heroes
Opt for bite-size options like mini pita pockets stuffed with turkey and greens, cheese cubes with grape clusters, or cucumber rounds topped with hummus. These fill you up without crumbs or greasy fingertips endangering the board.
Mess-Free Dips
Thick dips—hummus, bean purée, or whipped feta—paired with sturdy dippers like pretzel rods, carrot sticks, and snap peas offer crunch without spill risk. Serve individual portions to avoid traffic jams when bidding heats up.
No-Stain, No-Delay: Protect the Board
Baked chickpeas, lightly salted rice crackers, and air-popped popcorn with a dusting of nutritional yeast bring flavor without shine. Your banker will thank you when crisp bills stay crisp through every mortgage.
Themed Bites for Every Color Set
Serve cinnamon-sugar pita chips for brown and blueberry yogurt bark for light blue. The playful palette sparks conversation while keeping hands clean as players scramble for early bargains.
Themed Bites for Every Color Set
Lay out pretzel rods as tracks and add chewy granola bites shaped like ties. The thematic spread looks fun, travels easily between turns, and keeps engineers—er, players—on schedule.
Hydration Station: Drinks That Play Nice
Sparkling water with citrus slices, chilled herbal tea, or cucumber-infused water keep minds sharp. Serve in lidded tumblers so enthusiastic dice rolls do not accidentally flood the Chance pile.
Try rice paper veggie rolls with tangy dipping sauce, corn tortilla chips with guacamole, and stuffed mini peppers. Label clearly so everyone can focus on trades instead of ingredients.
Inclusive Options for Every Player
Roasted chickpeas, seed brittle, and olive tapenade on cucumber coins deliver crunch and richness without nuts. Communicate clearly so guests feel safe placing hotels—and taking another handful.
Inclusive Options for Every Player

Timing Your Snack Turns
Introduce protein-rich picks like pinwheels, cheese, and chickpeas when trades intensify. An old house rule here: nobody makes big decisions without a snack in hand and a napkin nearby.
