Many times we try to make healthy choices when eating....grilled chicken, boca burgers, baked fish, steamed veggies....but then, to give them more flavor and make eating these healthy meals bearable, we soak them in condiments and dressings. Everyone knows eating salad with grilled chicken is a very healthy choice-- add parmesan cheese and drench it in ceasar dressing and you have just created one of the most unhealthy meal chocies available. Ceasar dressing is loaded with calories which voids the healthiness of your lunch time treat. Here's a good tip, always get your dressing on the side and dip your fork in it before grabbing some lettuce....never dump the entire dressing on the salad, you do not need that much dressing. Also, there are plenty of low-calorie, fat-free, low-sugar, low-sodium condiments and dressings available that will make your meals delish and keep the inches from your waist. I have compiled a few to help you out:
*Wishbone Salad Sprtizers--so tasty and only 5 cals a spritz!!
*Low-Sugar Ketchup--same great taste, 30 less calories!!
*Olive Oil Mayo--for those of you who can't give up you mayo!!
*Calorie-Free, Sugar-Free, Gluten-Free, Fat-Free and Chocolate?? IS THIS FOR REAL?!?!
Walden Farms has tons of different dressings, syrups and spreads to tempt anyone and they have no detrimental effects---YAY!!!
In order to meet your weight goals and keep excess calories from your body, always read labels and compare products. Chances are, there is a better choice than the products you've been using for years. It is very easy to be creatures of habit, but making some simple lifestyle changes will help you live longer and healthier lives, and ultimately make you feel better about yourselves.
