SuperBowl Snacks -
We had a few people over for the Superbowl yesterday, and we know 2 things for sure about the Superbowl...there will be a winner and there will be unhealthy food!
I am trying not to have 'cheat days' or an exact time frame for this project because I want it to be something that I can continue and I can keep up in ANY circumstance. I was on a mission to find snack foods that will be healthy and within the guidelines of the food I want to fuel my body with.
As a reminder I am only eating Fish and eggs as my animal protein, no wheat, no dairy, no processed sugars, and almost no processed foods.
This is what I decided to serve, and what I ended up eating....
- Veggies and Hummus
- Fruit (apples, pear, strawberry)
- Popcorn (just salt added)
- Multi Grain Corn Chips (Should Taste Good brand) with homemade Guacamole
- Roasted Potato / Pineapple / Red Peppers / Chicken Meatballs baked together in the oven (I had sauteed shrimp in mine)
- Gluten Free Cookies from Sweet Cakes (and cake pops)
I had mostly popcorn and veggies...I had 2 cookies and 2 cake pops. I was drinking champagne and a glass of wine at the end of the night. This morning I feel puffy and a little bloated:( I could tell a big difference in how I felt by not having the proper portions and way too much 'empty' calorie food (corn chips, popcorn, sweets).
It was good tho, cause now I know it isn't worth it and I wont be tempted to eat it again...even on special occasions like the Superbowl.
