Fantasy Football Draft Snack Suggestions? page

[Krist]

Okay, this is going to be a little tough. I'm having several friends over for our draft on Sunday of Labor Day weekend, and I need to come up with some yummy Primal snacks that don't "seem" Primal or over-the-top nutritious. I want to be able to wow these guys with some awesome, tastey snacks that are Primal, but don't want them to realize they are getting healthy snacks.


Does that make sense? Most of these guys aren't into fitness and nutrition, but I'm sure the topic will come up because they all know that I'm into it and I haven't seen most of them in a while. I want to be able to say...."You know that awesome snack you're eating right now? That's Primal!" to maybe open some eyes and try to shed the misconception that this is some crazy, cult diet.


I'm struggling to find "football" kind of Primal snacks, so please fire away with some of your recipes for yummy snacks that I can try out on this bunch!

chicken wings

nuts

teriyaki steak skewers (make with tamari and no sugar)

BBQ ribs

bacon wrapped just about anything, scallops, hot peppers, whatever you can find in the kitchen

deviled eggs.


that's all I got for now, but I'm sure there are 100s more

Pork rinds, cream cheese and homemade salsa -- great for the potato chip munchers. Or bacon-wrapped jalepenos stuffed with cream cheese. Sensing a theme? And if you need a non-fruity snack with all that testosterone flying around, you can't go wrong with Son of Grok's Dinosaur Droppings (*). Every guy has an inner boy that giggles at poo jokes!

Shelley, whose Garlicky Zucchini Fritters, were featured on MDA y'day has some great recipes on her blog. She had a "Deviled Eggs from around the world" recipe that would be a perfect party-pleaser. Let me find her blog.
