Bariatric Friendly Snacks for Game Day
Game Day is coming up fast. What’s your plan? It may or may not include a large-scale viewing party due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but it almost certainly involves food! Are you set with the right types of food?
The BariatricPal Store has you covered. Whatever you like to eat while watching the Big Game, we have a healthier version of it for you. Chips, brownies, nuts, fried chicken, and hot chocolate - they’re all on the guilt-free table this year!
Crunchy Snacks
Chips and dips are a must at a game viewing party, but who can handle the excessive carbohydrates in bowlfuls of chips? And why would you want to, when you can have low-carb, high-protein versions?
Flavors run the gamut, including Ranch, Sour Cream and Onion, Sea Salt and Vinegar, Barbecue, Nacho Cheese, and Dill Pickle.
And look no further if you need some dips. Dip your raw vegetables or protein snacks into Protein Cheese Dip, salsa, or homemade guacamole. Yum!
Ingredients for Pizza and More
You can serve hot favorites without too many carbs. Regular frozen or restaurant versions of pizza, fried chicken, and tacos can be high enough in calories and carbs to throw you off for days. But you can make your own, low-carb versions, thanks to ingredients from the BariatricPal Store.
- Low-Carb Pizza Crust or Pizza Crust Mix topped with pasta sauce and shredded cheese
- Burrito Bar with Eat Me Guilt Free Protein Tortilla Wraps, cooked ground turkey, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, salsa, and sour cream.
- Baked fried chicken coated with low carb breadcrumbs.
Cookies, Cakes, and Brownies
Sweet somethings can be a fourth-quarter treat, but if you cannot resist, you can dig in earlier. The BariatricPal Store has sugar-free, keto, and high-protein choices for every sweet tooth. Low-Carb Cookie Bites in flavors such as Chocolate, Red Velvet, and Gingerbread, Keto Brownie Mix, and Chocolate or White Keto Cake Mixes are just a few.
Ready-to-eat Protein and Keto Cookies and Brownies minimize the effort so you can eat straight from the bag. And our low-carb and keto Baking Mixes let you serve freshly-cooked desserts that come out perfect every time. You can also find single-serving options such as Protein Mug Cakes, Protein Chocolate Chip or Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, and High-Protein Cakes and Brownies.
Nuts and Other Munchies
What will you put out for your guests and yourself to munch on? Fresh fruits and vegetables are always a great idea, and you can serve them with prepared Peanut Butter Protein Powder. These are some other snack ideas.
- Keto Glazed Pecans
- Gourmet Flavored Pumpkin Seedz
- Salmon Skin Cracklets
- Meat and Fish Jerky and other Meat Snacks
- Keto Marshmallows
Hot and Cold Beverages without Sugar
A few cold beers add calories and carbs, and can lead you to make worse food choices. But you don’t have to turn to sugary punch. Instead, Protein Fruit Drinks and Protein Smoothies are low in sugar and carbs, but refreshing. If you want something warm instead, Protein Hot Chocolate and Acid-Free Coffee are there for you.
Big Game, big party? Go for it! Just choose wisely. The BariatricPal Store has everything you need for Game Day to get your protein and keep sugar down. Have fun!
