Five hot super bowls for your diet plan that will have you screaming 'Diet Touchdown' as you run for the goal - your Diet Weight Loss Goal, that is! These super bowls are packed with taste, with leanness - no meanness, and with great filling power. The best part? You can enjoy all five at one sitting! We're mixing it up, too - with a starter, a main course, two vegetables, and a sweet dessert. Five bowls, about 500 calories. The only thing missing is lite beer and those outrageous commercials. Super Bowl #1 - Grandma's Glass Bowl We're starting off our meal with a bowl of Grandma's favorite soup - the store bought kind. Just kidding. Take 1 can of any clear chicken broth (99% fat free) and add a bit of chopped cilantro. Simmer about 10 minutes, remove and add 1/4 cup of cooked, shredded white chicken and a bit of cracked pepper. A squirt of lime will set off the flavors in the soup, but is totally optional. The soup can be prepared ahead of time, then warmed right before game time - or meal time. Super Bowl #2 - The Cotton Fields Ain't Rotten Bowl Grate up 1/4 head of purple cabbage. Green cabbage can be used as well but purple sure is pretty. Peel, then shred or grate one small carrot and add to the cabbage. Add 1 Tablespoon of milk and mix (whole/skim/any kind at all will do). Next, add 1 Tablespoon of light Mayo, a dash of celery seed and a few packets of no calorie sweetener if you like a sweet slaw. Super Bowl #3 - The Orange Ya Glad You're on a Diet Bowl Beautiful orange carrots glaze our Super Bowl bounty! Steam/boil/or microwave 2 cups of baby carrots and drain OR, use full-length carrots chopped into small pieces. Next, spray the carrots with no calorie butter spray. Sprinkle with a bit of ground cinnamon. Next, drizzle with 1/4 cup of sugarfree maple syrup OR use several packets of no calorie sweetener. Super Bowl #4 - The Rosey Bowl 1/2 small can of solid white tuna (albacore rocks!) in water. Drain the water; add 1/4 head of iceberg lettuce CHOPPED VERY FINE, a bit of diced onion (totally optional), salt, cracked pepper, chopped celery (optional) and 1 Tablespoon of light Mayo. Next, toss in 15 small corn chips (as in Fritoes - regular size) that have been slightly crushed. Mix and enjoy. Super Bowl #5 - The Sugar Free Bowl Measure out 2 cups of frozen strawberries and pop into the microwave for about 1-2 minutes, until thawed, yet firm. Stir, then sprinkle on a few packets of no calorie sweetener. Add 1/2 teaspoon of REAL vanilla and stir slightly. Top with light whipped topping. Stay tuned to Diet Bites for diet tips & motivation.
