What Are Some Healthy Snacks For My Super Bowl
Party?
So when it comes to the Super Bowl, everyone associates unhealthy
snacks with watching the game. Well it doesn't have to be that way. You can
still enjoy the biggest game of the year and have good, healthy snacks that
everyone will like. First, instead of serving those fatty dips, try a
substitute like hummus, homemade guacamole or low fat plain Greek Yogurt with
a little seasoning for dip flavoring. Second, instead of those horrible white
tortilla chips, try organic whole-wheat tortilla chips. Third, instead of those
greasy finger foods try for some fresh cut vegetables like peppers, cucumbers,
celery, little cherry tomatoes, broccoli, cauliflower or even some carrots.
Instead of ordering wings make your own barbecue or buffalo wings---this
way you can control how much sauce is put on them. If you have to have
pizza at your party, try to order pizzas that aren't loaded up. Keep it simple
with cheese or maybe even vegetarian style pizza. You can never go wrong with
vegetables. When having drinks, go light beer or a glass of wine is fine. But
have other choices that are healthy such as bottles of plain water
or organic fruit juice of any flavor you like. Lastly, enjoy the
big game with family and friends.
It’s usually more about how much you eat than what you eat.
If you are eating all day 5,000 calories of healthy snacks is still 5,000
calories. I'm the last guy in the world to ask about eating healthy for the
super bowl. To me the super bowl is just like a religious holiday. My routine
consists of going to breakfast at 7:30 am so I am home in time to start watching pregame
at 9. From the moment pregame comes on, myself and a few friends generally eat
and drink all the way until the game is over.
The week leading up to the game, my diet is perfect and I will be sure to work out at least 4 times that week. No large meals, no happy hour, no going out to eat, NO EXCUSES. I don't care what my friends are doing. I don't care if my house catches fire. I don't care if the devil himself comes to me and says I will take your soul if you don't eat Chinese food with your co-workers at lunch. My diet is perfect the week leading up to the super bowl, and I will work out at least 4 times that week.
