Holiday Foods: The Naughty and Nice List
The Naughty and Nice List EAT THIS, NOT THAT Brussels Sprouts Sprouts are chock-full of vitamin C and K and contain a sulphurous compound that aids in liver detox, which can be extremely beneficial during the holiday season since there are so many parties and gatherings! Be sure to be light with the toppings, though. Butter and bacon can really pack in some unwanted calories. Salsa When others are chowing down on creamy dips and spreads, which can be high in fat and calories, salsa is low in calories and even packs in a healthy serving of veggies, too. Just be sure to take it easy on the chips! Nonfat Greek Yogurt Speaking of dips, another great alternative for something to munch on at gatherings (and in between the big feasts) is nonfat Greek yogurt. It can be a nice replacement for cheeses and sour cream and also pairs nicely with veggies, making for a great side dish or appetizer.
The temptations are real throughout the holiday season! There are just so many delicious options to choose from; it’s no wonder getting back into shape is one of the biggest New Year’s resolutions out there. Packing on a few extra pounds from Thanksgiving through the New Year is almost inevitable, but keep in mind that there’s a difference between enjoying something and over indulging. Also, by making some easy swaps and avoiding a few of the worst holiday choices, you won’t need to worry, diet, or deprive yourself! The Nice List Turkey A staple for all holiday gatherings is turkey! A lean meat packed with protein, turkey is a great option when taking health into consideration — just go easy on the gravy and opt for the light meat instead of the dark meat! Turkey is rich in tryptophan, which plays a large role in the body’s production of serotonin, the happy hormone. Not to mention, tryptophan can also make you quite sleepy.
