Tailgating or watching a football game at home often means eating lots of unhealthy snacks.

You can still enjoy the game with some healthier fare, the American Heart Association says. Some suggestions:

• Lean meat, including grilled chicken tenders (instead of fried wings), and lean beef, turkey or salmon burgers — pattied out to the size of a deck of cards.
• Low-sodium seasoning and whole wheat buns.
• Crunchy raw veggies and a healthy dip instead of chips.
• Water or no-calorie soda. And avoid alcohol. If you do drink, do it in moderation.
• Eat only if you are hungry.
