Game Day Snacking Tips
1. Diversify Your Menu – Plan your menu to include a variety of options. Choose some easy appetizers that you can prep ahead of time and have ready in the fridge. Dips are great for this!
Also, by choosing a dip and a wing options, you can sneak in the veggies and protein, which will keep your from crashing later
2. Make it Easier – When you are choosing your menu be sure to choose recipes that you can whip together and let them cook in the crock pot or instant pot. This will help you not feel rushed at the last minute or from having to fit everything into your oven at once.
