Will you be watching the big game this weekend as The Chiefs take on The Buccaneers?  I know I will! Of course, the safest way to watch the Super Bowl this year is at home with people we live with. For anyone who chooses to attend a larger Super Bowl event this year, like a watch party, the CDC suggests following these guidelines to be safer.

The Super Bowl is an unofficial American holiday that is celebrated with lots of food and drink. It can be so much fun and yet disastrous for anyone trying to eat healthy.  Typical Super Bowl party food is loaded with sodium, sugar, saturated fat, and calories. But with a good plan, you can indulge and enjoy yourself without overindulging and feeling sick and guilty.

Use these 3 tips and have a truly “super” day!

  1. Make a plan of what you are going to eat for the day. Be sure to include a nourishing breakfast and a light lunch.  Actually, write down your plan and stick to it.  Don’t go to the party hungry.
  2. fill your plate with lots of colorful veggies. This easy taco recipe for easy taco recipe will help you do just that. If you are a guest, offer to bring these tacos to the party.  They’re a real crowd-pleaser and will help you stay on track with healthy eating. Note: chicken can easily be substituted for the tofu if you’d prefer.

  1. Keep yourself well hydrated by alternating alcohol with water if you plan on drinking. Start out with water or seltzer before you have alcohol.  Sip your drinks slowly.  Set a limit on alcoholic drinks and keep to it.
