Skip the fatty, fried wings and instead enjoy a lean, mean bowl of my Buffalo Chicken Chili . It’s made with ground chicken breast, so you can enjoy the rich, spicy flavors of this Super Bowl party staple without all the calories and artery-clogging fat.

Or, get your fiery wing fix from low-cal, crunchy popcorn. Drizzle air-popped popcorn or any bagged light popcorn (such as Skinny Pop or Fit Popcorn) with Frank’s Red Hot Sauce. (Don’t have an air-popper? You can pop plain kernels right in your microwave using this trick!) To really put this snack over the top, serve your popcorn with a slim-style blue cheese dressing. Mix 1 (6 oz) container nonfat plain Greek yogurt with 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese and black pepper to taste. Be sure to mash the blue cheese well with a fork to distribute it evenly throughout the dressing.
While we’re on the topic of dips, check out some of the other delicious, healthy creations in my Recipe Center. Your crowd will cheer for my Edamame Hummus, Southwestern Black Bean Dip, or lightened-up Spinach Artichoke Dip. Be sure to offer plenty of crunchy veggies for dunking along with the chips!
If you’re serving up pizza, you can slash the calories in half by ordering your pies with thin crust, light cheese, and veggie toppings instead of sausage or pepperoni. Add in one or two of these pizzas along with your usual order and you and your health conscious guests can get your cheesy fix without feeling weighed down.
Enjoy these tasty snacks while watching the big game. I know they all score a touchdown in my house!
