What is your favorite healthy treat during the holiday?

I thought that perhaps with the coming holidays we should do some meal ideas that are healthy and delicious. I have a Cranberry Salad that we have not had a holiday without that I will post. We also love an Asian Chicken Salad that we have recently added.

What are yours?

My sister was doing weight watchers last year,and made some great pumpkin pies. More squash pie than creamy pumpkin, but very good. Will see if I can get the recipe.

I gotta say, I love my sunflower seeds. they not only give you some protien and good fat, they keep your mouth busy for a long time for the amount of food you are ingesting.

I love cranberries - I make them all kinds of ways, but I especially like it mixed with some orange marmalade. They are so simple to make and so tasty! I also really like a cold turkey sandwhich with a tiny bit of cream cheese and cranberry sauce.

Brussel sprouts & carrots broiled. I don't know why I never think to make these on non-holiday times, but I don't. I love them.

Halve the sprouts, slice the carrots, mix with seasonings (I use garlic, garlic & more garlic), 2 tsps of olive oil and broil for about 20 minutes, flipping half way through. Delish.

sweet potatoes and squash, yum.

I am a sucker for pies and cookies

I love to bake, so it has been a challenge to avoid the oven this fall. When I have gotten the urge, I have made some treat, eaten a very small portion within my calorie allowance, then either taken the goodies to work or given them to my daughter to take home!

Now.....yesterday was another story! Since I decided that MFP didn't exist, I went a little nuts with the baked goods and candy :drinker: . BUT......I am getting back on track right away. Losing 15 lbs in 9 weeks left me feeling too good about myself to destroy my progress!
