If you're feeling stressed with the upcoming game on Sunday because you're trying to stay on track with your plan, don't worry! Watching football doesn't have to only involve highly processed fried foods and simple carbs. Here's a roundup of healthy side dishes to bring to your party so you have something yummy to snack on.

Corn Casserole

This cozy, warm dish is perfect for the winter weather we have in Kansas City right now. Plus, it's packed full of vegetables and can be customized to have meat or be made vegetarian or vegan.

Creamy Buffalo Chicken Soup

"If you believe there isn't a substitute that can fulfill your buffalo wing craving, think again! This healthy swap hits all the right flavors, right down to the Frank's Hot Sauce. But instead of a fried dish where the healthiest part is the celery sticks, this crockpot or pressure cooker recipe incorporates lean chicken breasts, cauliflower, and the unmistakable kick of buffalo sauce."

The Best Guacamole Recipe

Guacamole is such a great option for a healthy snack because the avocado provides healthy fat that will fill you up and keep you satisfied. Plus, you can throw in so many other veggies. If you want to make it totally carb-free, use celery, sliced bell peppers or sliced cucumbers to scoop the guac instead of chips.
