50+ Healthy Football Snacks - lightened up versions of favorite game day eats

50+ Healthy Football Snacks is a collection of healthier versions of favorite Game Day foods like chicken wings, buffalo chicken dips, queso, spinach dip plus lots of other healthy snacks that will satisfy the munchies during all the games while keeping your waistline in check. Football has been a huge part of our family for as long as I’ve known my husband. I clearly remember my husband watching football in the hospital room right after our first baby was delivered. In our home, every Monday night, Thursday night, Saturday and Sunday is reserved for all the college and pro football games on TV.

50+ Healthy Football Snacks - lightened up versions of favorite game day eats

When my boys were young, I started a tradition of making football snacks every Sunday. In the beginning, I bought a lot of frozen foods and just threw them in the oven. But, over the years, I started making healthier versions of their favorite football snacks. Finger foods are always fun, so I try to include at least a couple of small bites such as sliders and wings. I also usually make a hearty dip.

Here’s a collection of 50+ Healthy Football Snacks from my personal collection as well as favorites from some of my food blogger friends. Try rotating some of these into your game day entertaining.
