A snab is a Salusian root vegetable, similar to a white potato. Belgad is the meat of a Corellian herd animal of the same name, and is more or less interchangeable with beef (as indeed it must be in many 25th-century implementations of older Earth recipes, since belgad are much more commonly raised around the galaxy than Earth cattle).

Snabs and belgad takes many forms; the most common are something not too dissimilar to pot roast and a slightly more elaborate version that is basically cottage pie.
