NYC is going crazy for the big game this weekend.... but as we are coming down from the holiday hype (Thanksgiving to New Year's!) and are headed toward Valentine's Day (chocolate!), November to February is a season filled with so many excuses to party, celebrate and overload our appetites with unhealthy options. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the Super Bowl -- a family tradition of four in a row Buffalo Bills loses, I know you're shaking your head -- but the food is one of the best parts: pizzas shaped like footballs, the wings(!), dips galore.... but here are a few
healthy options to consider:
A few major switch-a-roos for simple yet effective substitutes:
- choose baked, not fried
- choose a bean base, not cream base for dips
- use lean turkey breast for burgers or chili
- use unsweetened chocolate or cocoa for desserts
If all else fails and you find yourself surrounded by the delicious, unhealthy stuff -- decide it's a splurge day and get back to your healthy living on Monday!
Go Giants!!
