Football and food. Food and football. One without the other just seems wrong and honestly, a little offensive. And sure, you could hypothetically eat food without football – but can’t we all agree that food tastes way better when the game is on? We rest our case.

Surely we could do better, right? There must be a way to hang with your crew, enjoy the big game, and binge some tasty eats without feeling like a bloated mess come Monday morning? The answer is yes, and we got you covered.

Here are a few of our favorite gameday snacks that are healthy, delicious, and easy to make for your gameday get-together. Enjoy!
