Main course

How not to get fat at the holiday table

The pre-New Year bustle differs from preparations for any other holiday in that special activity is observed in the grocery departments of stores. On New Year's Eve, people leave supermarkets with their carts filled to the brim, preparing to have a substantial snack at the New Year's table. What about those who have promised themselves to follow a low-calorie diet and do not want to find extra centimeters on their waist after the holidays? What to cook for the New Year? Which low-calorie recipes should I choose? Believe me, even a New Year’s feast can be organized in such a way that both guests on a diet and relatives who are not too concerned about their figure will be satisfied with the treat.

There are currently 0 calories on this table. And the question is: what dietary food should I prepare for the New Year? 19483

Low-calorie recipes for the New Year: transforming traditional holiday dishes

Suppose you set out to please your ever-losing friends, their gluttonous husbands, and capricious children with delicious dishes at the New Year's table. It is extremely unwise to prepare many different dishes for each category of intended guests. Firstly, with this approach to preparing treats, you will fall off your feet from fatigue long before the solemn chiming of the chimes. And secondly, a huge number of dishes on the table will cause confusion among the guests, and they simply will not be able to properly appreciate your culinary heroism.

Dietary seafood salads will be appropriate for the New Year 19503

Take a different approach to the problem of simultaneously preparing dietary and high-calorie dishes for the New Year. The fact is that there are several main ingredients of any food that add calories to them: mayonnaise, cream, fatty sour cream, as well as starchy vegetables like potatoes, beans, avocado. As a rule, they are the ones who add satiety to the meal, which men especially appreciate, and sweetness, which children love. Limit the amount of these ingredients in the dishes you prepare for the New Year. Your task is to come up with a set of treats for the New Year's feast that can be seasoned and decorated in different ways, depending on the taste and dietary preferences of the guest. This way you will save energy and please your friends.

Some people like it hot: prepare a snack using a low-calorie recipe

Offer your guests hot snacks so they have enough strength to have fun all long New Year's Eve, for example, stuffed mushrooms.

Baked mushrooms are nutritious and easily digestible 19182

For large champignons, you need to remove the stems, chop them and simmer a little over low heat with 1 grated tomato, add 2 tbsp. sharp grated cheese and finely chopped green onions, mix well. This is a low-calorie recipe, so choose not too fatty cheese for your New Year's dish.

You need to stuff the champignon caps with the resulting mixture, place them on a baking sheet greased with vegetable oil and bake in the oven for about 20 minutes. The nutritional value of such a dish is about 50 kilocalories per 100 g of mushrooms.

For those who don’t think about their waistline or count calories during the holidays, increase the calorie content of the filling by adding chopped boiled eggs or meat and filling it with a number of additional mushroom caps.

Diet salads: eat for health!

Salads most often cause melancholy in the eyes of men who have long learned that a woman who wants to lose weight eats exclusively bland herbal and vegetable salads. A man wants something more satisfying and tasty. Let's try to please both of them by preparing dishes for the New Year.

The impossible is possible: pork as a dietary dish for the New Year

Offer your guests a sumptuous hot meat dish that will equally delight those who are on a diet and those who have long given up on their figure.

Lean pork with vegetables is a completely dietary dish for the New Year 19101

1.5 kg of lean pork tenderloin should be washed and dried, salt and pepper. Prepare the sauce: you will need 1 cup fresh cranberries, 200 g diced apples, 1 chopped onion, 2/3 cup brown sugar, ½ cup water, 20 g ginger, 1 tsp. curry, ground red pepper on the tip of a knife - mix everything in a saucepan, bring to a boil and cook covered for 20 minutes, then remove the lid and cook, stirring, for a few more minutes until the mass thickens. Cool and blend in a blender until smooth. Pour the sauce over the pork and bake in a hot oven for about 1 hour. The nutritional value of such a dietary dish for the New Year is about 260 kilocalories.

Separately, bake slices of potatoes, sweet peppers, carrots, and coarsely chopped onion rings for guests in the oven or on the grill. Cut the finished meat into slices, pour over the sauce in which it was baked, and everyone will choose vegetables for a side dish according to their taste and level of appetite.

New Year's dietary dessert

Even the most ardent supporters of dietary nutrition admit that without sweets, life becomes unbearably boring, and even on holidays it is completely impossible. Offer your guests a delicious and light dessert made from oranges, bananas, lime and avocado, prepared according to a holiday recipe. You need to take 2 pieces of all fruits. Remove the zest from citrus fruits very thinly, mix with 2 tbsp. brown sugar. Grind pieces of fruit, zest and sugar, peeled and chopped avocados in a blender. Beat until light green in color, cover the bowl with the resulting mass with cling film and place in the freezer for 20 minutes, then pour into a tightly sealed container and freeze for 4-5 hours. Serve to guests in chilled bowls. For those with a sweet tooth, decorate the dessert with whipped cream.
