Low Cal Appetizers for Football
Last Updated on 2023-01-14 by Linda
I may have mentioned already that in January of this year Kent and I embarked on a journey to reduce carbs. We decided we needed to reduce the carb and sugar intake and lose a few pounds.
OK true confession we didn’t decide, the doctor kind of encouraged it. Searching for low cal snacks can be challenging. Plus we can only do so much with cauliflower and zucchini right? So how about cream cheese and sriracha? A Low Cal Appetizer that makes Superbowl or Grey Cup still fun.
Superbowl Snacking
It is the apex of professional sporting events in North America, the game that brings together fans and non-fans for an exhibition that combines athletics with pop culture and music — not to mention an extravaganza of advertising and marketing.
And when the grinding season of America’s most popular professional sport comes to an end, people are gathered with a smorgasbord of food and drink taking in the spectacle that is the Super Bowl. The game itself, in many cases, is immaterial. What people remember is the good times spent with good friends, and the food they were eating as the action was taking place.
It is also a gut wrenching heartbreak of an occasion for those of us trying to watch our waistlines. OK I sound a tad overdramatic but it feels like a Shakespearean tragedy when I want snacks and I am dieting. Anyone else out there trying to figure out what the nest day/week/month is to start a diet without a food holiday to tempt us?
Low Cal snacks are a healthy option and this one can be on cruncy nachos, or carrots and celery your choice.
Staying Healthy for Football
After embarking on a get healthy journey I needed to discover some healthy snacks. With Super Bowl Sunday upon us I needed ideas, Pinterest helped but I started getting creative. This little snack was my number one for crunch effect and then there was my cauliflower bread
This particular snack works because you can use veggies or various low cal snacks. And the selection of whipped dips is signifant.
