Traditional Holiday Recipes Made Healthier
Family Holidays Nutrition
The holidays are great for enjoying flavorful food with friends and family. It's easy to take traditional dishes that, while tasting great, may not be so healthy, but with a few minor changes, you can make them healthier and enjoyable for all.
Healthy eating doesn't have to mean sacrificing flavor. With a few simple changes, you can make your favorite recipes healthier and still enjoy the same delicious taste. Here are some tips for making recipes healthier:
- Use healthier ingredients: Swap out unhealthy ingredients for healthier alternatives. For example, use olive oil instead of butter, or Greek yogurt instead of sour cream.
- Cut down on fat and sugar: Reduce the amount of fat and sugar in your recipes. This can be done by reducing the amount of oil or sugar in the recipe, or by using healthier alternatives such as applesauce.
- Add more vegetables: Increase the amount of vegetables in your recipes. This can be done by adding more vegetables to the dish, or by using vegetables as a substitute for other ingredients.
- Increase the fiber: Fiber is important for a healthy diet, so try to add more fiber-rich foods to your recipes. This can be done by adding whole grains, legumes, and other high-fiber foods.
By making small changes to your recipes, you can make them healthier without sacrificing flavor. Healthy eating doesn't have to be boring - with a few simple tweaks, you can enjoy your favorite recipes in a healthier way.

Let's face it, the holidays are a notorious time for eating and drinking outside of our usual habits. With a busier-than-usual schedule, it's a time in which many of us fall behind on our exercise regime. When we pair these two factors together, it's no wonder that so many of us experience holiday weight gain.
It's the holiday season! In this time of joy and cheer, relatives are coming to town, rooms need to be cleaned, and tables need to be filled. The children make their wish lists for Santa and eagerly anticipate Christmas morning for their well-deserved gifts. However, for the parents, more dreaded than coal may be a sudden cold or flu in the household.
