Looking for a Quick Healthy Meal for Dinner?
Looking for a new healthy recipe for dinner but don’t have the time to cook a huge meal? Look no further than Taco night! Tacos are easy to prepare and even easier to keep healthy! Instead of greasy beef try pulled chicken or fish. Its easy to avoid unwanted calories by substituting sour cream/cheese with a low fat or non fat variety! Skip the avocado but pile on the salsa, there are only 36 calories per serving! Don’t forget to add a little spice by trying a hot sauce which contains capsaicin which gives chiles their heat. Capsaicin helps to higher metabolism therefore burning more calories! So spice it up during Taco night!
Soft Serve Yogurt as a Healthy Snack?
Don’t let Soft Serve Turn You into a Softie…
Since soft serve yogurt came on the scene, trendy yogurt shops have been popping up all over the country. But when does a healthy treat turn into a diet disaster?

And when choosing an alcoholic beverage go for something light if you’re having more than one. Eggnog has 343 calories per glass whereas Champagne has 90.

The average American Gains 1 Pound during the Holiday Season
Healthy Holiday Cooking Ideas
Cooking Light Fresh Food Fast: Over 280 Incredibly Flavorful 5-Ingredient 15-Minute Recipes
The most glutinous part of year is upon us! During the holiday season the average American gains 1 pound, which may not sound like a lot but over a lifetime can add up to obesity. This doesn’t have to be the case however. There are many healthy substitutions to use when cooking holiday meals. Pumpkin Pie is a popular dessert and not that high in calories if you leave off the whip cream. Instead try using low fat Cool Whip or even non-fat yogurt sweetened with Splenda as a topping. As for the real enemies beware of the Carbs! Mashed potatoes can be made healthier when prepaid with low-fat milk and a butter substitute. Eat Smart Age Smart in-house chef suggests Brown and Brummel (yogurt based spread). Also watch out for the salt. Most Americans get 2-3 times more salt that they need, so when you’re reaching for the salt shaker remember that most food already contains a lot of sodium. The Holidays are a time to indulge but with a little will power you don’t have to gain weight doing it! Happy Holidays!
