I like to set out at least one dip, one sturdy chip or cracker, and one “grab-and-go” item like roasted chickpeas or snack sticks. That way, even if someone skips the heavier foods, they still have plenty to eat.

“Ask a Nutritionist” FAQs
Bring something that feels “normal” for game day and is easy to share: a sturdy chip or cracker, a dip, and one protein-forward snack. A simple combo is grain-free tortilla chips + fresh salsa or guacamole + roasted chickpeas or meat sticks. It covers crunchy, creamy, and filling without needing a kitchen.
Often yes, but not always. Plain tortilla chips made from corn, oil, and salt are typically fine, but flavored chips can sneak in dairy-based seasonings or wheat-based flavor carriers. Look for a “gluten-free” statement or certification and check the allergen line for milk.
Guacamole, salsa, and pico de gallo are usually the safest bets. Many hummus brands also work, but some varieties include dairy or are processed on shared equipment. The label check is quick: scan ingredients, then look for the “contains” allergen statement and any “may contain” or shared-facility notes if you’re sensitive.
Think fiber plus protein: roasted chickpeas, pistachios, and meat sticks tend to keep people satisfied longer than chips alone. Pair one of those with popcorn or crackers so you still get the classic snacky vibe without relying on just one type of food.
Bring your own serving spoon and keep your snacks in a separate bowl or on a small tray. Put out packaged items unopened when possible, or portion some into a container before you arrive. At the party, avoid shared dips if people are double-dipping or mixing crackers and chips from different bowls.
