Let's Play Ball!!!

ball park nutrition

Peanuts, popcorn, cracker jacks, cotton candy, hot dogs..........  As baseball season starts, consider your healthiest options at the stadium.

You may find the grilled chicken sandwiches, all beef hot dogs, and even build your own quesadillas with peppers, onions, chicken and salsa.  Make sure to include a protein.  So even if you are going for a pretzel eat half and grab a bag of peanuts to include some heart healthy fat and protein.

As for your alcohol at the game.  As always drink in moderation and alternate with water between.

Enjoy the game without derailing your healthy nutrition plan.  If you go often, you cannot indulge at each game.  Try choosing to indulge only one time per week.
