It is not uncommon for most people to exceed their daily calorie needs during a Superbowl Party. 

Here are some tips to cut down on the calories without cutting out on the fun!

• Save your calories for the food. Cut out sugary/high calorie drinks.

Light beer ~100 calories per can          3 cans in a night ~300 kcals

Regular beer ~ 160 calories per can     3 cans in a night ~ 480 kcals

Can of pop ~ 150 calories                       3 cans in a night ~ 450 kcals

• Substitute greek yogurt for mayo or sour crème in veggie and taco dips. Or use low fat versions. 

Veggies and dip with greek yogurt or humus can be a healthy tasty snack.

• Use re-fried beans as the base in your taco dip. Load it with veggies. Light on the cheese.
• Substitute baked breaded strips of chicken breast for chicken wings. Cutting out the calories from the saturated fat found in the skin.
• Make a veggie chilli with beans instead of a meat chilli. Or substitute extra lean ground meat, chicken or turkey.
• When ordering pizza- make it thin crust with veggies ~125calories per slices vs. a regular pepperoni pizza ~360 calories per slice (double the calories!).
• For a sweet snack serve fruit with low fat vanilla yogurt to dip.

Just do it! No one will even notice the difference!
