Ideas for nutritous eating during the holidays
Do you find yourself crunching on
butter cookies and potato chips at the
holiday office party or neighborhood
gathering? Do you disregard plans to

table? vowing to lose weight after
the new year?
* This year, resolve to maintain a
healthy lifestyle and still enjoy the
festivities.
Cocktail parties cause some of the
biggest downfalls in weight control
programs. Office parties, neighbor
hood gatherings and family reunions
provide great opportunities to nib
ble; the refreshments however, are
usually high-calorie snacks and alco
holic beverages.
Try to avoid baked goods or highly
salted nuts and chip6. Also look out
for fried snacks which have more fat
and calories. Highly sugared snacks
which are key culprits in tooth decay
should be avoided. Instead choose
raw vegetables and fruits.

for the "real thing." Snacks made
with familiar, wholesome ingre
dient* with minimal processing will
contriubte protein, vitamins, miner
als and fiber rather than the high cal
oreis that other fabricated snacks
such as soft drinks, chips and candy
provide.
Tempt the guests with crunch
snacks such as apples, pears, carrot
and celery sticks, green pepper
sticks, broccoli spears and unsalted
rice cakes. Give them whole-grain
breads, moozzarela (part-skim), ri
cotta (part skim), plain low-fat yo
gurt, flavored popcorn, breads ticks,
bagels, almonds and walnuts. Feed
them homemade chips, corn and
flour tortillias, unsalted pretzels or
low-fat crackers like matzo and flat
bread.
If they want something sweet
canned fruit, thin slices of angel food
cake, baked apples, raisins or dried
and fresh fruit.
Beverages such as unsweetened
fruit juices, artificially sweetened
soft drinks or tea and coffee without
sugar or cream are good choices for
snacks.
If you find yourself at the holiday
office party reaching for the mints
and the salted nuts, rach for some
thing healthy instead, and enjoy the
festivities.
