We all know that Memorial Day is the unofficial start of the summer, which means BBQ's. This summer why not enjoy your time with friends and family, here is my BBQ tips for a healthy start of the summer.
1) Drink water first and alcohol after: choose light white wine or beer
2) Offer to make a dish for your guest: like a vegetable platter, or salad, something you will eat.
3) Stick to lean protein like chicken, tofu or shrimp
4) Stay active: walk the dog, play with the kids; just move around don't sit still all day
5) Avoid Mayo-laden dished
6) Stick with a light and refreshing dessert: fruit, yogurt, ice pops
See BBQ's don't have to be stressful, they need to be fun and enjoyable. If you need some healthy options go to Fit Cuisine for ideas.
