We're about five weeks into football season, and let's just say we've had our fair share of Buffalo wings, loaded nachos and sliders. It's been fun, but we kind of want to fit into those slutty Halloween costumes we picked out.
Well, guess what, Houston?
We're in luck, because thanks to some of our city's finest sports bars, we can watch our games and get our fill of healthy grub. Now there's more room for the beer. (We're never fitting into those costumes, are we?)
Here are our Top 5 Local Bars with Healthy Menu Options:
5. Pub Fiction
Instead of gut-busting nachos, munch on Pub's Roasted Garlic Hummus ($9), served with warm lemon, feta, olives, cucumber, and warm, toasted lavash. Staying for another game? Try the Margarita Shrimp Salad ($13), topped with marinated grilled shrimp, roasted corn and a light cilantro-lime vinaigrette, or their super-filling Grilled Chicken & Vegetable Wrap ($10.50), stuffed with grilled chicken, zucchini, mushrooms, red peppers and garbanzo bean spread.
Skip the fatty beef cheeseburger in lieu of a heart-healthy black bean Veggie Burger ($9) or fill up on the veggie-laced Skinny Pizza ($13), a thin-crust pie loaded with basil pesto, artichokes, spinach, mushrooms, green peppers, zucchini and sundried tomatoes.
