Super Bowl Sunday is America’s second largest day for food consumption, surpassed only by Thanksgiving.

Pizza, chicken wings, pretzels, potato chips and dips are some of the top selling foods. Even with smaller gatherings, these foods will be bought/ordered more so than ever this year. Large pizza chains have forecasted that their Super Bowl Sunday sales will be five times greater than that of an average Sunday. These popular convenience foods are packed with saturated fat and over the top in sodium. Fruits, vegetables, beans and whole grains are often missing from Super Bowl feeds.

This cooking demonstration will feature how to make Heart Healthy Pizzas and a Pizza Soup to bring America’s favorite food to your winter food fare whether for Super Bowl Sunday or any day.

Recipes that will be shared after the demonstration include:

• Italian Pizza

• Margarita Pizza

• Italian Sausage made with ground turkey

• Pizza Sauce

• Pizza Pasta Soup

• Lower Sodium Potato Chips

• Hummus Dip

• Lower Sodium Nuts

• Fruit Tray
