Healthier Tailgating Snacks

My family and I have been on a mission of eating more healthier foods. For the past six weeks, we've been eating more veggies in our meals.

We tried to go cold turkey and only eat plant-based foods and my daughter and husband has even lost some weight. But that lifestyle has proven to be very hard. Instead we've decided to include more veggies into our diets wherever we can.

For example, my guys love football and eating snacks so I've got to come up with healthier tailgate and homegating recipes.

That's where MorningStar Farms® comes into play. Did you know that MorningStar Farms is America's number one veggie burger brand? I remember tasting MorningStar Farms food for the first time at a Twins game last year and the food was absolutely amazing! You honestly could not tell that it was veggie. My son even liked it and that's saying something!

But the cool thing is that MorningStar Farms products are not just for vegetarians. It's for regular every day people like me that want to provide healthier meals for my family.

And Save $3 on the purchase of 3 MorningStar Farms products while you're at it!

So I decided to take a quick trip local Walmart to make a few tailgating recipes with MorningStar Farms.

I bought MorningStar Farms® Buffalo Wings and MorningStar Farms® Veggie Dogs. The Veggie Dogs are perfect for grilling but it's not necessary for the recipe that I'm going to show you later.

Here's how we're adding more veggies into our lives by switching out veggies for meat in our meals. Take a look at the two healthier tailgating recipes I came up with.
