Confession time.
Sports just don’t do it for me. I never know what team belongs to which city or any of the names of the top athletes. The only thing game day has going for it is the camaraderie and the food.
Of course sports food is notorious for deep fried, high-carb and super processed. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Consider making a chili bar with a variety of toppings like:
avocado
red onion
jalapeños
sautéed onions
roasted corn
scallions
fresh radishes
fresh tomatoes
cilantro
bacon crumbles
full fat sour cream
cheddar cheese
dairy-free cheese dip
corn chips
plantain chips
You can make this chili vegetarian by leaving out the turkey and doubling the beans. Just serve the meat on the side.
Enjoy!
