I’m not going to pretend that I like keep up with the happenings in the football world. However, you would most likely find me at a Super Bowl party this year if we weren’t in a global pandemic. I’ll be the one tasting and testing what everyone has brought to the party!
As I personally eat plant-based, so I would supply plant-based snacks/treats. My goal is never to “convert” someone to this way of eating, but simply introduce new options that they may have not tried before! And heck, it’s never a bad idea to eat more plants!
Check out my favourite Game Day food options below and watch me make them on Youtube!
