And not super foods that provide the most nutrients for their punch. You do not have let a party derail your nutrition plan.
The true "dorky dietitian" healthy way to go is kick off with fresh vegetables and low-fat dip, fruit kabobs, whole-grain breads and a variety of lean meats for sandwiches. During the second half, snack on popcorn, pretzels with mustard dip, baked tortilla chips and salsa, apple slices and low-fat caramel dip. Post-game, offer your guests fruit parfaits or angel food cake with chocolate sauce.
A more moderate approach would be to follow these simple strategies:
•Have a small snack before going to a party. Going out hungry often results in overeating.
•Use a plate for even the smallest snack. You’ll eat less.
•Moderate your alcohol consumption. Alcohol causes blood sugar to drop, which leads to hunger.
