Healtheir Eating Tidbits

[Guest guest]

Healthier Eating Tidbits:

 

* Keep a bowl of cut-up vegetables on the top shelf of the

refrigerator. (Use the salad bar to buy cut-up fruits/vegetables if you're in a

hurry).

 

* Increase portions when you serve vegetables and fruits. Season them the low

fat way with herbs, spices, and lemon juice. If sauce is used, choose a nonfat

or low-fat sauce.

 

* Choose fruit for dessert. For a special dessert, try a fruit parfait with

low-fat yogurt or sherbet topped with berries.

 

* Choose whole grain varieties of bread, muffins, bagels and rolls (whole wheat,

bran, oatmeal, multigrain).

 

* Use nonfat or lower fat spreads, such as jelly or jam, fruit spread, apple

butter, nonfat or reduced-calorie mayonnaise, nonfat margarine, or mustard.

 

* Try small amounts of these low-fat treats: fig bars, vanilla wafers, ginger

snaps, angel food cake, jelly beans, gum drops, hard candy, puddings made with

low-fat (1 percent) skim milk, nonfat frozen yogurt with a fruit topping, or

fruit Popsicles. Try pretzels or popcorn without butter or oil for an

unsweetened treat.
