Too often we elect to make or bring quick, simple and fattening meals such as mac n' cheese, casseroles, mashed potatoes and pies. Now is the time to buck the trend! Listed below are four recipes that can make you a Healthy Holiday Hero!
- Quinoa Salad with Oranges, Beets, and Pomegranate: The whole grains in this salad are full of protein and fiber leaving you full, without eating triple the calories you would with a casserole.
- Roast Chicken with Pomegranate Glaze: The lean white meat will supply your body with enough protein to build strong muscles and keep that stomach full without overstuffing until the clock hits 12 on New Years. Not to mention the glaze adds a healthy sweet alternative to desserts.
- Sweet Potato, Red Onion & Fontina Tart: Low in Calories and fat, the sweet potato is a great health option for any holiday platter. The red onions will also give you a healthy supply of vitamin B6 and a boost of energy to keep on through the new year!
- Brussel Sprouts with Chestnuts and Sage: Greens and protein all in one delicious dish. What more could you want from a great tasting New Years Dish?
