The start of school and the decreasing temperatures brings one of our favorite times of the year, football season! We love spending our Saturdays tailgating and watching our favorite teams take on their opponents! People tend to think that football season is a time to “splurge” in the food department, because let’s be honest, it can be hard to make tailgating a healthy affair. We’re here to tell you that, in fact, you can still attend a tailgate and cheer on your team without sacrificing your health goals.  To make it easy, our dietitian team put together five groups of our favorite tailgating items.  We like to call it a “party in a picture”!
