Avoid a Fumble with Protein Packed Tailgate Snacks
It’s Football Season! The time of year when we get together to cheer on our favorite teams. Whether at home or the stadium, food and drinks at watch parties can present an extra meal time challenge.
High calorie, high carb slider foods are pretty common on the buffet table. If you are not prepared, it could be difficult to stay on track with weight loss or maintenance goals.
Here are a few tailgating tips and recipes to help you stay on course and still have fun!
- Eat before the game (don’t go to an event hungry)
- Stay hydrated - keep flavored water with you
- Look for the veggies and fruit platter, or offer to bring one yourself
- Bring your own UNJURY Root Beer float or Cherry Cola.
- Get creative with high protein, low calorie dips. See below.
- Focus on the game, friends and a good time.
