Don't get us wrong, we love watching football. What we don't love is the greasy, heavy, gut wrenching snacks that go along with it. We needed healthier options on game days and figured you did, too!

So, we came up with some very tasty recipes that bring the flavor, not the Tums. These healthy game day snacks can be made to enjoy at home, or pre-made and packed for a tailgate. Oh, and these recipes require four ingredients or less and all take less than 20 minutes to make...so no excuses!

HEALTHY GAME DAY SNACKS

Goat Cheese Stuffed Dates with Prosciutto

• 6 dates, pitted
• 2 oz goat cheese, whipped
• 6 slices Prosciutto
• 1 tablespoon Chile Olive Oil

Healthy Jalapeño Poppers with Strawberry Balsamic

• 3 Jalapeno’s, halved and seeded
• ¼ cup cream cheese
• ¼ cup Monterey Jack cheese
• 1 tablespoon Strawberry Balsamic Reduction
• Drizzle of Balanced EVOO

Peach Balsamic Candied Almonds

• 5 ounces Peach Balsamic Reduction
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3 cups blanched almonds

In a medium sauce pot, bring Peach Balsamic Reduction and sugar to a simmer. Let simmer 3 minutes. Add almonds and allow simmer for 5 minutes. Pour onto a glass pan to cool. Once cool, break apart and serve.

Do any of these sound like a good substitute for pizza and wings?
Let us know which snack you'll be making for the next big game!
