Healthy Football Party Snack Ideas Using Milton’s Products

Bring on the touchdown for your taste buds with these healthy recipes for game day. Satisfy your gameday party cravings with these gluten free recipes featuring Milton’s best products.

Gluten Free Nachos

Nachos are a gameday staple, and layering tasty ingredients together is part of the fun. Milton’s Gluten Free Crackers are the star players in this healthy party recipe, bringing plenty of good flavor and appetizing textures to the table.

Most nacho recipes use tortilla chips as the base. However, chips can rack up carbs and, if they contain wheat flour, pose problems for gluten free folks. Swap this traditional ingredient for Milton’s Gluten Free Crackers and enjoy superior flavor without limits.

Customize your gluten free nachos with some of your favorite toppings on game day:

• Black beans
• Cheese
• Guacamole
• Light sour cream (or use a dairy free Greek yogurt alternative)
• Taco sauce
• Jalapeños
• Queso blanco
• Bell peppers

Make your gluten free nacho plate your own and invite your guests into the wonderful world of Milton’s Gluten Free Crackers this season.
