Perhaps it’s time to skip the wings and pizza this year, don’t you think?
Admittedly, indulging in delicious food while watching sports is a major highlight. It’s almost unimaginable to attend a game without getting a hot dog and some crispy fries. The same goes for watching the game at home; it’s a customary tradition to relish in heavy, saucy dishes. However, considering the events of the past year have raised awareness about health, and the likelihood of staying home, how about making this year’s Super Bowl a slightly healthier affair?

To begin with, the usual go-tos like buffalo wings, pizza, and most types of chips are out. So, what’s left? Quite a lot, actually! You don’t have to ditch chips altogether; just opt for something healthier. Popcorn is a great alternative, or even better, opt for organic tortilla chips. If organic chips aren’t your thing, you can customize them with healthy dips like guacamole, hummus, or salsa. For a personalized recommendation, pickles offer that same satisfying crunch as chips and come in a variety of flavors.
When it comes to deli classics, if you crave some meat, consider opting for leaner options like turkey sandwich sliders. You can also whip up delicious tacos and burritos using plant-based protein tortillas and your favorite vegetable fillings. For dessert, fresh fruits are an ideal choice, but if you need a little extra, dark chocolate-covered almonds can certainly satisfy your sweet cravings.
Prepare a delectable platter, and if you have guests, ensure everyone maintains a safe distance. Enjoy the game, and try not to be disheartened if Tom Brady steals the spotlight. Again.
