Monday Tip: Holiday Party Game Plan

Happy Monday everyone! There's no denying that the holidays have arrived.

Lights have been strung, gifts are being wrapped and holiday treats are everywhere.

Here is a little holiday party game plan to help when it comes to your nutrition!

This is what you would eat...

As many fresh and fiber-filled vegetables as you want.

• Load up on salads.

• Enjoy vegetable side dishes.

• Just no starchy vegetables like potato or corn.

Lots of lean, protein-filled meats and eggs.

• Stick with meat that has been roasted, barbequed, or baked.

• Avoid fried meats and eggs.

Fruits, nuts and seeds in moderation

• Fresh fruit for a delicious dessert.

• A handful of nuts or seeds for a snack.

• Don't eat sugar-added fruits, nuts or seeds.

Then enjoy some small exceptions...

• Bread or grain product: No larger than the size of your hand.

• Starchy vegetables: Half of a cup.

• Baked goods: Should fit into the palm of your hand.

• Candies or confections: The smaller the better.

• Holiday drinks: 8 ounces.

When you navigate the buffet line at your next holiday party, feel confident knowing that you have a game plan. Stick with vegetables and meats first, then pick out your 2 small exceptions and enjoy those!
