    Sandwiches, or pita poackets stuffed with salad, I do this for my hubby:
    Lettuce cut up
    onions
    pepperoni
    italian dressing
    cheese
    stuff it in a pita, I do a chicken and ranch salad and stuff it for me....

    you could pack hummus and veggies for munching..

    If you are grilling, Veggie and Chicken Kabobs. Make them seperate because you want to make sure the chicken is cooked through and the veggies don't burn.

    I need help with this too, going to my last college football game as a student :/ And in repsonse to the wings, I've tried all the highest rated baked wings recipes out there and unfortunately none of them compare to the fried and they are not even that much healthier to make it worth the downgrade.... I save my calories and splurge once in a blue moon with max 2 wings (but they are fried and delicous)

    Turkey options to normal tailgate food is what I would go for (turkey kielbasa or burgers, etc.)
    Go out to skinnytaste and find some good sides.

    Or...you can take this as a one time event, kick back and let go for an evening. Don't go crazy, but don't be strict. Have a brat, have a dog, have a brew (or three :drinker:) and have a good time and not worry about it.

    OMG - I am the wing girl LOL

    I do baked no skin wings like this:

    dash them with mega garlic powder, onion powder and some sea salt (let them sit overnight).

    Then I drizzle raw agave nectar on top and toss and add alittle more garlic, onion powder toss and bake on 375 degrees for at least 45 minutes.

    My friends always bug me to make them.

    I do sometimes bake them with the skin on (I admit), but they are good both ways.

    Thanks Nyla, I am a garlic and onion powder addict!! So my mouth is already watering!! Was it easy to find skinless wings in the database when you entered the recipe?
