MyPlate Holiday Makeover
The holiday season is here! This year make your meals festive, delicious, and healthy!
- Brighten up your holiday meal with fruits and vegetables! These pops of color add nutrients and add to the festivity.
- Remember a little bit of gravy goes a long way. Start off small, you can always add more, but it’s hard to take back.
- Holiday recipes focus on spices and herbs. Use these flavors to enhance your dish, rather than sugar and salt.
- Make healthy swaps. Use healthier substitutes when baking and have fruit available at dessert.
- ReThink your holiday drink. Choose water or unsweetened tea to accompany your holiday meal or dessert.
