Is there really such a thing as food that is fun, healthy, and delicious? So many people think grub that’s good for you automatically takes all the fun out of eating. After all, balanced diet can’t possibly taste good, can it? Of course it can!
I have been busy gathering some ideas for fun, healthy, delicious foods to give out. If you have kids, these meniul zilei iasi are recipes I think they’ll like too. And here’s another bonus : just about all easy to make:
a Have you seen those “Flatout Mini” soft wraps? I love these! They are small-size wraps that are decreased calories, convenient, and extremely versatile. Try this easy formula : all you need are the wraps, cooking apply, Mrs. Splash, and Parmesan cheese. Cut each wrap into 16 wedges and place on a dessert piece sprayed with cooking apply. Sprinkle with a little Mrs. Splash and a bit of Parmesan. Cook at 350-degrees for around ten minutes or until lightly brown and crisp.
a Fruit kabobs : This is a fun alternative to a plain old bowl of fruit. Just pick a few of your favorites : maybe celery, pineapple, apples : and cut them into bits. Slide the fruit onto a skewer. Next, roll the skewer in a plate of nonfat yogurt… then roll again in a plate of shredded coconut. Voila! A fun, healthy, delicious indulgence!
a Sandwich kabobs : Cut whole-grain bread, low-fat cheese, and your favorite deli meat into cubes. Slide them onto skewers along with some veggies like grape tomato plants, lettuce, pickles, and olives. Dip into fat-free or low-fat German outfitting.
a For a quick mini-pizza, top an English muffin (go for the whole materials ones) with spaghetti sauce and a little shredded low-fat mozzarella. Broil before cheese melts.
a Pop a frozen waffle or pancake into the toaster and top it with warm applesauce and cinnamon. Too easy, huh?
a Frost nova some grapes, apples, cherries, or maybe peaches and blend with yogurt for a fruit healthy smoothie.
a Yogurt pops : fill paper glasses with your favorite non-fat or low-fat yogurt and put a popsicle stick in each cup. Frost nova and luxuriate in!
a Frothy Coolwich (from Nabisco World) : put 2 tablespoons of sugar free Cool Beat in between graham cracker squares. Place within a layer on a this baking piece and frost nova for three hours or until firm. Yum!
a Blueberry Cracker Bites (from Kraft Foods) : spread 1 teaspoon light cream cheese on a reduced-fat Ritz cracker and top with 5 frozen blueberries. Too fun!
So, you see : well balanced meals can be fun and delicious.
Now, I am a company believer that the key to a successful, healthy lifestyle is to choose fun good-for-you foods and exercises when you can. It’s a tough enough fight out there whether you’re trying to lose or maintain weight. But enjoying the journey is half the battle.
