Lucas Oil Stadium does have some &#8220;real food&#8221; (I don&#8217;t know if healthy really applies) beyond <strong><a title=\"Chorizo Nachos recipe\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/recipes\/chorizo-nachos\/\">nachos<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a title=\"Does a Healthy Hot Dog Exist?\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/07\/does-a-healthy-hot-dog-exist\/\">hot dogs<\/a><\/strong>, so I was hopeful for real options when the Super Bowl came to Indianapolis. While there was not much variety within the Super Bowl Village itself, you will not have to wander far to find something that feels more like a meal than a snack.<\/p>\n<p>The Super Bowl Village, stretching from the Indiana Convention Center to the Bankers Life Fieldhouse (formerly the Conseco Fieldhouse) has plenty of concession stands offering chicken tenders, steak burgers, hot dogs, french fries, soft pretzels, Sweeties gourmet treats, <strong><a title=\"Frito-Lay Jumps On the Natural Bandwagon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/03\/frito-lay-jumps-on-the-all-natural-bandwagon\/\">Frito Lay chips<\/a><\/strong>, candy, hot cider, coffee, hot chocolate, cappuccino, <strong><a title=\"Is Gatorade Good For You?\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/questions\/is-gatorade-good-for-you\">Gatorade<\/a><\/strong>, water, and <strong><a title=\"Is Pepsi Throwback Healthier?\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/05\/is-throwback-pepsi-healthier\/\">Pepsi<\/a><\/strong> products.<\/p>\n<p>Inside the Indiana Convention Center, which houses the NFL Experience, additional options include Lipton tea, fruit juice, popcorn, whole fresh fruit, Lay&#8217;s Potato Chips, <strong><a title=\"Snickers Bar recipe\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/recipes\/snickers-bar\/\">Snickers<\/a><\/strong>, M&amp;M&#8217;s, yogurt, turkey caesar sandwiches, Italian grinder sandwiches, roast beef sandwiches, grilled veggie sandwiches, chicken caesar salad, tossed garden salad. burgers, BBQ pork sandwiches, and tenderloin sandwiches.<\/p>\n<p>Deeper in the NFL Experience, near the memorabilia show and autograph stage, Pepsi Max and Doritos each has an exhibit with free samples, contests, and games. Considering the long lines seen in the <strong><a title=\"Fuel Up To Play 60 Back For Another Season\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/08\/fuel-up-to-play-60-back-for-another-season\/\">NFL Play 60 Game<\/a><\/strong> Zone, attendees could have very positive feelings about these exhibits.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, not far from there in the maze of the NFL Experience, the &#8220;Sandwich Zone&#8221; offers carved turkey and carved beef for sandwiches with several topping options. They also have candy, soda, water, Gatorade, and Lipton Tea.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Huddle&#8221; at Circle Centre mall, which offers an indoor lounge area, has entrances directly from the Super Bowl Village. There you can find a sandwich bar with herb roasted turkey breast and honey glazed tavern ham with kettle potato chips. You can also find a &#8220;Tailgate Table&#8221; with spicy wings, grilled foot long brats and hot dogs, baked beans, and potato salad. There is also a chili bar and mac-n-cheese bar with different options.<\/p>\n<p>There are several Indianapolis restaurants lining the streets of the Super Bowl Village and downtown. However for healthier options, I suggest looking for the Duos Food Truck on the Circle, just a few blocks north of the Super Bowl Village, or the City Market on Market and Delaware.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Winning Recipes for the New York Giants vs. New England Patriots Super Bowl\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/01\/winning-recipes-for-the-new-york-giants-vs-new-england-patriots-super-bowl\/\">Winning Recipes for the New York Giants vs. New England Patriots Super Bowl<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Where to Work Out in Indianapolis During Super Bowl Week\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/01\/where-to-workout-in-indianapolis-during-super-bowl-week\/\">Where to Work Out in Indianapolis During Super Bowl Week<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sporting events generally aren&#8217;t places where you count on finding healthy snacks readily available.
