Here are Some Nutritious Snacks for Watching SuperBowl?

There's something about watching football (especially when your team is losing) that makes you want to snack; maybe you like to nibble on something salty and crunchy, or something deliciously sweet.
Some people say you shouldn't eat while you watch TV. I don't think that snacking while watching the tube is a bad thing, just don't turn into a mindless munching zombie. That's how you wolf down too many calories.
The best football snacks are lower in calories, high in vitamins and minerals, and preferably, not too messy. Here are some favorites:

Raw Vegetables

Fresh raw veggies are good because you get a nice satisfying crunch and tons of nutrition. If you like a little extra flavor, serve them with a little veggie dip or salad dressing. Carrot sticks, celery, broccoli and cauliflower are all good choices, but try raw green beans or asparagus for a nice change.

Popcorn

Popcorn is good too, because it's high in fiber. Nix the extra butter. Try air-popped popcorn. If you like a little salt, use some butter or olive oil spray -- just enough so your salt sticks to the kernels. You can also buy low-fat microwave popcorn, or save yourself some money (and avoid ingredients you can't pronounce) and make your own microwave popcorn with a paper bag. One teaspoon of vegetable oil or a couple of teaspoons of butter is enough fat for one-half cup of kernels.

Nuts and Seeds

Nuts and seeds have such a tasty combination of crunch, flavor and salt. Raw nuts and recently-roasted nuts and seeds have healthy fats, which is good, but it's not a case of 'a little bit is good, so more is better.' Nuts and seeds are high in calories, so if you need to watch your weight, you'll also need to watch your portion size. Pour a small serving in a dish -- don't take the whole can of nuts.

Fresh Fruits

If you need your sweetness fix, grab an apple, pear, peach or nectarine. Or poor some berries into a bowl and add some almond milk and a few nuts. Fruits are good for you because they've got vitamins, minerals and fiber.

Better Chips

If you really love your chips, and you have the time, try making your own healthier versions. You make pita chips with a little olive oil, low-fat baked tortilla chips or try some non-fat microwave potato chips that don't suck. Serve with fresh salsa, homemade guacamole or hummus.
