While most people pack on pounds during the holidays, it is possible to eat great holiday foods that are also healthy as well. For appetizers instead of eating things like mozzarella sticks or chicken tenders, you can go with unsalted nuts or some whole grain crackers with hummus. For entrees, make sure to trim the fat when you are cooking the meat of your choice. Finally for dessert, limit yourself to one piece rather than trying to make the entire thing disappear.

Key Takeaways:

• Throwing your healthy intentions out the window because it’s a holiday is not the best idea.
• If you are wanting to eat unhealthy, you will have less energy and be in a worse mood.
• You should try to keep your foods healthy starting from the appetizers all the way to the desserts.

“Any holiday meal doesn’t seem to be complete without a protein centerpiece. Turkey, roast beef or a fresh ham are lean protein choices.”
