Here are some friends with simlar question as we.And I have this question for many days,anyone help us?
Kitty said: Yes.Looking for healthy suggestions for Christmas Dinner?-I try seach this on internet but no results found.Maybe this is a stupid question.
Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(Looking for healthy suggestions for Christmas Dinner?),it will help you,my kids.
I will be hosting dinner for my family, approximately 25 people, and I want some new ideas. My father is on a NO salt diet, and many of us are watching cholesterol and triglycerides, so healthy is important.
I want something not too fussy, last year we had beef tenderloin, but I personally was not happy with it, by the time I got to eat, only well done pieces left, cold, etc. Any ideas for perfecting the tenderloin idea? Any other suggestions welcome including side dishes. I will have lots of fresh veggies, salad...any light dessert recipes?
We, of course, have some picky eaters. Any ideas to lighten up/ lower sodium on common Christmas recipes are welcome.
Everyone will want cheesy party potatoes, any way to make it healthier and still taste good?
Thoughts about Lasagna for entree?
How do you roast chestnuts, and are they healthy?
Also looking for a recipe for lime fluff..Thanks for your help!
Answer:
i think lasagna is a great idea, nice and hearty and can be healthy. you can do either an all veg (red/yellow bell peppers, eggplant, fresh basil...etc) or add a ground beef/ground turkey mix for a healthier option than all beef. and you can make the ground beef more healthy by having your butcher ground a lean cut of meat for you (not too much fat or unknown parts). to make it more christmasy, you can make stars on top with green & red bell peppers.
you may consider pasta and pesto sauce. lots of garlic is good for people with cholesterol probs. can aslo make festive with roasted green and red bell peppers
salad dressing: olive oil, balsamic vinegar, fresh ground pepper, and fresh lemon juice.
instead of cheesy potatoes. make them herb and garlic potatoes.
the less processed food you use, the less sodium.
would your family consider fish instead of red meat or turkey? much heathier, easy to prepare.
It all sounds sooo yummy!!
Maybe you should cook a turkey, is low fat and it's big enough to feed a lot of people. If you're trying to keep cholesterol away, avoid red meats and eggs for a while. Try lots of green salads and maybe a potato salad.
Cook potatoes (think of one potato for every guest). Peel them, cut them in cubes (or you can use those small cocktail potatoes). Add some parsley, salt and olive oil and then mix it.
