Here in Connecticut, everyone is preparing for an evening filled with chicken wings, Budweiser beer and cheese whiz!

Personally, I like watching the super bowl to check out the new advertisements and see the half-time show (this years guest is one of my favorites, Tom Petty!) The other night when I phoned my friend in UT she didn’t know much about the event. To some, it’s just another sporting event. But to many, it is THE game!

For those that are more into the food than the game, you will enjoy tuning in to see how the Super Foods compete against the Junk Food.

I am certain there will be loads of junk food at the party I will be attending tonight. In these circumstances I always bring a healthy, fun dish so that there will be something there for me to indulge in.

Here are some tips for those of you that are trying to figure out what to bring tonight:

• Organic Blue Corn Chips with Salsa
• Homemade popcorn drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and sea salt
• Cut up veggies with a veggie hummus
• Shrimp with cocktail sauce
• Quinoa crackers with goat cheese
• A large salad filled with grilled chicken and all the fixins
• Organic turkey roll-ups using spelt wraps

Have a healthy filled Super Bowl!
