Touch-Down: Super Bowl Snack Ideas That Score!

Posted by Kristi Bergeron on Thu, 30 Jan 2014 Recipes & Cooking Demos

Got your team picked for Super Bowl Sunday? Then it’s time to pick your line-up for your Super Bowl snacks…

Here are some winning plays from Lou Ann Chvatal, MS, RD, LDN, Biggest Loser Resort - Chicago Dietitian:

1. Trick your taste buds! Flavor your water pitchers with slices of citrus fruit, chunks of melon, cucumbers, to name a few.

2. Swap ingredients smartly. Switch out the sour cream in those dip recipes with non-fat yogurt. Greek yogurt is an even better swap as it’s a good source of protein.

3. Power up for the team! Start the day out with a healthy breakfast, such as a bowl of steel cut oatmeal with a handful of unsalted almonds and a half-cup of berries.

4. Take a Pass! Switch out the chips ‘n dips for a handful of unsalted nuts, or some avocado slivers…healthier fats score!

5. Fill ½ your plate with fresh veggies before checking out the Half-time show snack table.
