WMDT 47 NEWS - The Super Bowl is right around the corner - if you're planning a game day party - you may want to take it easy on the finger foods.

Around 30-million pounds of snack food is eaten on Super Bowl Sunday. And the average fan watching the game will consumer around 1,200 calories in junk food alone. Buffalo wings are one of the worst offenders - with each wing running around 100 calories. But experts say instead of swearing off all snack foods - there are some healthy alternatives you can serve up.

"Where we can get some great calorie and fat savings is with your dips. People love the ranch dip the seven layer dip always calling for things like cream cheese and sour crème why not try...this is my favorite go to...plain Greek yogurt," said Dietitian and Nutrition Expert Dawn Santacrocce. For a full list of tips to help make your Super Bowl Sunday snacks a little healthier - be sure to tune into Good morning Delmarva on Friday.
