Nothing says winter like hanging out on the couch with your mates to watch a game.

But what are you going to eat?

Well, we’ve come to the rescue with the uplimate line-up of snacks that won’t blow out your waistline.

Sausage Rolls

A necessity for any get-together. Packed with chicken mince for protein, we’ve cut the nasty fats out by using bread wraps instead of puff pastry.

Pizza Scrolls

We’ve even snuck protein into the dough of these pizza scrolls. Whip up a batch or two. They’re super easy and if you have any leftovers you can always pack them for lunch the next day.

Cauliflower Hot Wings

All the flavour of chicken wings but with a fraction of the fat and carbs. Whack them in an air fryer and they’ll be ready in 10 minutes.

Crunchy Chilli Chickpeas

Salty, spicy and crunchy, these roasted chickpeas are everything a we love about footy snacks. But these have the added bonus of a hefty serve of muscle-building protein.

Lime & Coriander Beef Skewers

Meat on a stick — is there anything better?! You can fire up the barbie for these, or cook them in a griddle pan on the stove. Either way, your mates will be raving about them.

Fish Tacos

If fish is more your vibe, you can’t go past these tasty tacos. They’re packed with lean protein, healthy fat and a chilli kick.

Is there a greater staple than nachos when it comes to party food? By using lean beef mince and swapping the corn chips for wholemeal mountain bread, you can enjoy these nachos without giving up on all your hard work.

Now, if you need a beer (or two) to wash it all down, we have this great list of the best beers for weight loss. Enjoy the game!
