(WJBK) - Too often, tailgating means eating high-calorie, high-fat foods - and way too much of them. Why not take a stand this year to make healthy recipes for your next tailgate?
Tony Stephan, a registered dietitian and Regional Nutrition Program Coordinator with Life Time Fitness Detroit, joins us in the FOX 2 Cooking School to give us some ideas. You can watch in the video player above, and get his recipe for no-bake protein balls below.
