Fun-fact: I slept through the Super Bowl last year. In my defense, we were living in Switzerland.
Here are my top 5 NTG Super Bowl snacks that won’t send your blood sugar intro overdrive. They’re also super delicious. My picky, eating hubby approves.
All are gluten and soy free and can easily be made vegan!
