Garlic crab stuffed mushrooms from Meals & Moves
Stuffed mushrooms are a surefire hit at almost any party, Super Bowl or not. Unfortunately, they’re often packed with high-fat ingredients like cheese and sausage.

This fan favorite is usually deep fried, though, making the delicacy chock-full of fat and calories — about 479 for only three ounces! This fitter option from Snack Girl is only 240 calories for four or five wings, which is plenty to satisfy your craving without killing your diet.
The nutritional difference comes via the preparation: These wings are boiled and baked rather than fried. Top them with the sauce of your choice and serve alongside celery for a cool crunch.
