Healthy Football Recipes

A roundup of healthy football recipes to help you celebrate the Super Bowl or any other football game day with delicious, lightened up recipes!

 

America’s favorite weekend for football is quickly approaching! Most people fall into one of two categories (or somewhere in between): 1. I LOVE FOOTBALL! or 2. I LOVE SNACKS!

I’m personally in the latter category, a little bit because the Cowboys are never in the Super Bowl, but mostly because, snacks.

 

 

And even the people who fall into the first category still want piles of food while they’re cheering on their favorite team. Do you have your snacks ready?
