Healthy Super Bowl Snacks!

Hey everyone,

With the Super Bowl coming up this Sunday, I was wondering what some of you were doing in terms of a healthy alternative for the Super Bowl?

    Skinny Buffalo Chicken dip in the slow cooker - replacing the sour cream with goat yogurt though.

    I am having an Un-Superbowl Party (and watching movies). I am making chili and Rotel so indulging a little bit with the Rotel but my chili is pretty healthy. = )

    Check out skinnytaste website and look through appetizers and they might even have a superbowl section.

    It's one day, and it won't kill your diet.

    That said, check out www.skinnytaste.com, or Google "healthy Superbowl snacks". A lot of food magazines/websites run a special "SuperBowl week" or whatever leading up to the day.

    Stick to your guns, be good to yourself and try to enjoy the day, will ya? It comes around once a year!

    Veggie platters.
    Baked tortilla chips with salsa or rotel with low fat bean/cheese dip.
    pretzel rods.
    Chicken wings no skin (i use low sodium teriyaki or a buffalo sauce).
    Chicken breasts in slices (almost the size of a chicken strip) wrapped each with one slice bacon - baked.

    just a couple ideas, although there's hundreds more.

    Flour-less pizza? that sounds interesting. Gonna have to give that a go!

    Haha, usually I would agree with you! But this time around I'm going the opposite direction.

    Nacho polenta

    Slice polenta about half an inch thick, thinner if you can without it falling apart
    Top each slice with fat free refried beans, ground turkey taco meat (or lentils with taco seasoning), salsa and shredded cheddar cheese
    Bake at 425 for about ten minutes or until cheese starts to bubble.

    If you want this to be finger food, you will probably have to make your own polenta and bake it into an appropriate size.

    Veggie platters with laughing cow herb and garlic, instead of dip.

    Laughing cow mixed with thawed and drained frozen spinach also makes a good dip, someday I may even have artichokes on hand when I do this. Use veggies or multi grain pita chips.
