Don’t get us wrong; we love and appreciate a big eating day as much as the next guy. Maybe even more, given that we’re a food and drink site. But when you’re trying to stick to a New Year’s resolution of being healthier and a day like the Super Bowl comes around (with the Valentine’s Day candy-fest arriving shortly after), a day loaded with horrible-for-you foods isn’t ideal. If you’re hosting a Super Bowl party, you don’t have to cheat guests out of a tasty experience just so you can stay on track. There are plenty of healthy options to serve at a Super Bowl party that are just as flavorful and satisfying as some junkier foods we could name.
“Holidays” like this one are all about mindless munching, so one way to help yourself stay on track is to surround yourself with healthier munch-worthy snacks. To help you do this, we pulled together 11 tasty and healthier dips that will work perfectly for your Super Bowl Party. In fact, they are so good, your guests won’t even miss the calories!
