30 Healthy Super Bowl Recipes

January 26, 2020 By melissafischer25 No Comments

I’ve rounded up my favorite 30 healthy super bowl recipes from gluten free favorites, to paleo friendly snacks and everything in between, to help you have the best game day food in town!

I’ll be honest I am not really much of a football fan. Growing up my dad was a huge Los Angeles Rams fan. I remember coming home one night and he was watching the Super Bowl from the early 2000’s. It was mid – April 2010. Needless to say it wasn’t something I could get behind.

But what I can get behind is the delicious Super Bowl spread. Endless amounts of chips and dips, different types of meats, and whatever that thing is sitting in the corner that Aunt Karen brought.

So in the spirit of Super Bowl season here are 30 healthy super bowl recipes to help you get your game day feast on.

Is there any better way to spend a lazy, rainy Sat

Is there any better way to spend a lazy, rainy Saturday than diving into a cozy bowl of paleo rice soup?🤷‍♀️ This is one of my favorite soups to make not only because it’s super easy, but because it’s also loaded with veggies and my favorite @bonafideprovisions bone broth. While I was working on healing my gut issues I made sure to incorporate a lot of bone broth to help with the extra collagen and glutamine, and I can’t think of a better way than with a loaded bowl of soup. What I use:
1) 1/4 cup diced carrots
2) 1/4 cup diced celery
3) 1/4 cup diced onions (omit for #lowfodmap)
4) 1 tsp minced garlic (omit for lowfodmap)
5) 3 tsp parsley
6) 1/2 tsp rosemary
7) 1 1/2 tsp thyme
8) 1 tbsp avocado oil (I love @chosenfoods)
9) 1 package @bonafideprovisions chicken bone broth
10) 1 lb cooked pasture raised chicken breast
11) 1 cup @traderjoes frozen cauliflower rice
12) 1 handful kale
13) 1 lemon
14) salt and pepper to taste Start out by heating a large pot over the stove on medium heat. Add in the carrots, celery, seasonings, avocado oil and garlic and onions (if using). Sauté until they are a light golden brown. Add in the bone broth, cauliflower rice and chicken, and continue heating until the soup comes to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the soup to a simmer and add in the kale. Continue simmer for 5 minutes or so. Remove from heat, and add in the freshly squeezed lemon. Serve with fav toppings. #losingitwithmelissa #souprecipe #soupweather

✨Thursday morning thoughts from the bottom of my

✨Thursday morning thoughts from the bottom of my matcha cup✨ 1. You don’t have to have everything figured out by a certain age. You don’t have to have that spouse, or get that degree, or have children by a certain age. You’re not behind just because you’re not on society’s timeline. Isn’t it better to make sure you’ve found the right time, instead of settling for less than you deserve? Life isn’t a race. 2. Trust your gut, even if you don’t like what it has to say. I’ve ignored my intuition about people and instead allowed them to walk over me, completely ignoring any type of boundaries. Letting someone or something go may seem difficult at first, but really not everything that you lose is truly a loss. Sometimes these things you lose are better than you losing your sense of self worth. 3. I love good vibes, good people, and good matcha (not necessarily in that order) 4. In the end, your mental health is the most important. Driving yourself into the ground at work, or starving yourself to lose that extra pound won’t give you a gold star on the “who did it better” health chart. It’ll just leave you depleted physically and mentally. Take care of your mind first, everything else will fall into place. #losingitwithmelissa #everysquareastory #piecesofme

File this one under quick breakfast I could eat on

File this one under quick breakfast I could eat on repeat everyday. Mornings for me usually look like controlled chaos, so having foods ready for breakfast is super important. Here are some of the ways I save time on breakfast so I make sure I eat something this good on the daily: 1. Meal prepping really is a life saver. I’ll meal prep certain items like veggies or roasted potatoes the night before, and just toss them in a skillet with avocado oil the next morning to warm them up. 2. If there’s anything that I need to cook like breakfast sausages, I start cooking them on low while I’m still putting my makeup on. I’ll go out and check on them or flip them around, but it helps when breakfast is ready once the makeup is on. 3. Don’t be afraid to eat salad for breakfast. I know if you’re like me we grew up on something like waffles or pancakes for breakfast and the thought of eating salad was just nonsense. But it really is an easy way to get in some veggies first thing in the morning and it’s also quick to toss together. What are some ways you make sure to eat breakfast when you’re short on time? Drop some tips in the comments below! Pictured: 2 @applegate turkey bacon slices with @vitalfarms eggs, roasted potatoes, avocado and arugula. #losingitwithmelissa #breakfasttips #healthyeatingtips

If I had a nickel for every time I’ve scarfed do

If I had a nickel for every time I’ve scarfed down a quesadilla in my lifetime, boy I’d have a ton of nickels. This lovely quesadilla looks a little different though than the ones I used to eat, especially since I stuffed it full of veggies, and it’s not dripping in cheese. 2 @sietefoods cassava flour tortillas with roasted butternut squash, roasted zucchini, yellow squash and chicken. I roasted the butternut squash on 445 for 30 minutes. Once done, remove from the oven, smash on each side of the tortilla. Place the middle ingredients, and cook as you would a normal quesadilla. Top off with a mountain of guacamole and you are good to go 👍🏻 #losingitwithmelissa #paleorecipes #quesadilla

I went a solid year without a full night of sleep.

I went a solid year without a full night of sleep. Between life stressors and other things outside of my control, my anxiety came alive. I was desperate for some help, and that’s when I came across the benefits of golden milk for sleep. Google coming in clutch again. Turmeric has been shown in clinical studies to not only reduce inflammation but also improve mood, which can help lower anxiety before bed. Ginger and cinnamon can assist in keeping blood sugar levels stable, as well as fats, which is why I also include almond butter so I don’t wake up in the middle of the night starving. Golden Milk Latte:
1. 1 cup favorite nut milk
2. 1 tbsp ground turmeric
3. 1/4 tsp ground ginger
4. 1/2 tsp black pepper
5. 1/2 tsp cinnamon (I usually don’t measure the cinnamon, I just go for it 😂)
6. 1 scoop @vitalproteins collagen peptides
7. 1 tbsp almond butter (I use @traderjoes raw almond butter)
8. 1 tsp raw organic honey Combine all of the ingredients into a medium saucepan on medium heat. Leek cook until it comes to a slight boil, don’t let it get too hot. Too it off with some more cinnamon and serve immediately. #losingitwithmelissa #goldenmilk #goldenmilklatte

How would you define your relationship with food?

How would you define your relationship with food? Is it something that you use for nourishment? Comfort? Punishment? The way we see our relationship with food is often something we don’t give any thought to, eating is kind of one of those things we just do. But are you being mindful of those choices that you’re making? For so many years food was a source of comfort and punishment. I turned to food to comfort myself, but then punished myself if I feel like I ate too much. Cut back, ate more “healthy” foods. It wasn’t healthy at all. Even though I had the thought that what I was doing was healthy. The only part of my relationship with food that I’ve changed over the years is the mental aspect of it. I sit down to eat meals, instead of rushing. I make sure to take a deep breath before digging in. I also pay attention to how fast I’m eating. Man I used to eat so fast 🙄 Everyday is different, but my relationship with food has grown so much into more of a mental piece of my wellness than anything else. And I’ll be honest, this has helped me more with my health than any diet plan or restrictions ever have. Tell me, what does food mean to you? #losingitwithmelissa #embraceyourself #chooseyou

I’ve been on a chicken bacon alfredo kick lately

I’ve been on a chicken bacon alfredo kick lately and I’m not even mad at it. Anyone else eat the same thing over and over when you find something you love? It’s been awhile since I’ve had spaghetti squash so I figured why not bring my new found obsession to spaghetti squash? I’ve been obsessed with @primalkitchenfoods alfredo not only because it’s paleo friendly and full of clean ingredients, it also doesn’t mess with my digestion or leave me feeling weighed down. What I used:
1. 1 whole spaghetti squash
2. 1 cup pre cooked chicken and bacon
3. 1 handful spinach
4. 1 cup @primalkitchenfoods alfredo Start out by preheating the oven to 375. I cook the spaghetti squash whole because I just find it easier that way. Cook it on 375 for an hour and let cool. Cut in half and remove the seeds. Shred the spaghetti strands. Mix in the chicken and bacon, and top with the spinach and alfredo. Place back in the oven and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Remove and serve immediately. I may or may not have ate both sides of this after it was done 🙊

💕 Happy Galentine’s Day 💕 I’ll be hones

💕 Happy Galentine’s Day 💕 I’ll be honest I’ve never had a large number of gal pals in my life. It’s always been hard for me to open up to other ladies, especially in situations where I’m worried about being judged. But over the years I’ve been lucky enough to meet some pretty rad ladies who make me feel comfortable enough to be myself. So here’s to the ladies that lift each other up, cheer successes, and stand up for your girls no matter what. Who’s the lady in your life you wanna show some love to? Tag her in the post below! Celebrating Galentine’s Day with some @simplemills chocolate cupcakes topped with their vanilla frosting and heart shaped strawberries. I added a little bit of date syrup. #losingitwithmelissa #galentinesday #paleodessert

✨My mess became my message✨ This isn’t a we

✨My mess became my message✨ This isn’t a weight loss story. This isn’t a story about how I started some magical diet or took some wonder pill to shed the weight. This is a part of my story that’s so much more than just the weight loss. This is the story when I decided to take my health back. This was the day I decided to take ownership of my own life. The girl on the left used food for comfort. The anxiety attacks became much easier with food. I used food to ease the anxiety. I over exercised, barely relaxed and was stretched out beyond measure. I was constantly exhausted and could barely walk upstairs without becoming winded. I wasn’t happy with the person I had become. Not because of my weight, but because I wasn’t living a life that felt good to me. It was when I decided to stop allowing life to run me, and when I decided to finally start taking ownership of my own life that things started to change. The girl on the right lives a life full of meaning and purpose. I decided that truly loving myself, and taking ownership of my own damn life is the best way for me to live my healthiest, happiest life. Yes I do eat a certain way to manage my autoimmune disease, and I’ve truly never felt more free in my relationship with food in my life. I’m making choices that are based on my terms, not because I’m stressed out or unhappy. I choose to love myself for who I am, not the foods that I eat. And to be totally transparent, this transformation took me years. Life didn’t change overnight. As I continued to change my relationship with myself, the weight loss was an afterthought. I share this because my mess, became my why. This isn’t a before and after, this is a story just like so many of you who just wanted to feel at home in my own body. We’re surrounded by messages that to be happy we have to take this pill or be this size. True happiness and change only comes when you decide to authentically love yourself and put yourself first. No tea or magic pill can do that for you. #losingitwithmelissa #mymessage #mystory

Self love is... baking yourself some paleo chocola
