If you want to make the food at your Super Bowl party a little more healthy this year, it’s definitely possible with a bit of planning and know-how. Celebrity caterer and event planner Andrea Correale, who’s worked with the likes of Mariah Carey, P. Diddy, Jimmy Fallon and Kevin Spacey, has some great tips on putting out the ultimate tailgate party spread while having healthy options available for guests who are trying to stay fit. Here are some food suggestions from Andrea:

Burgers:
Many Americans opt to serve big juicy burgers of the grill. Change it up and put out a mini burger bar consisting of a buffet of lean mini beef, vegetarian and tuna burgers. You can put out a fun condiments & topping for the burgers like shredded lettuce greens, tomatoes, roasted peppers, low-fat cheese and sauteed mushrooms.

Fajitas:
Fajitas and tacos can be packed with calories. Use whole wheat wraps and prepare ground chicken and turkey and offer healthy filling like onions, peppers, red beans and brown rice.

Chips & Dip:
Chips and dip are a must have. To add a healthy choice for guests serving hummus with raw veggies, toasted whole wheat pita chips or carrot sticks.

Buffalo Wings:
This appetizers if the most popular of them all but they are very fatty because of the skin and are usually dripped in butter. Try using cajun spices on boneless chicken strips and serve it up with a chipotle dipping sauce.

Macaroni Salad:
Don’t settle for traditional macaroni salad but offer a whole wheat pasta salad with fresh diced tomatoes and low fat mozzarella.
