Healthy Super Bowl snacks
The Super Bowl is as much about food as it is about football. Chips, beer, beef and cheese. I think that pretty much covers it all, right? You can cut out thousands of calories just by being a bit more picky about what you score for Sunday’s game. Here’s one recipe that sounds pretty easy and tasty! Who doesn’t love guac?
Low-Fat Guacamole
1 1/2 cups frozen green beans, thawed
1 small avocado, cubed
2 large cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped jalapeno peppers
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
In a blender or food processor, puree the green beans, avocado, garlic and lemon juice until very smooth. Stir in the peppers and cilantro.
Pair this with some tasty All-Bran crackers, warmed pitas or blue corn chips.
