Throwing a party with some healthy perks...
I had some girlfriends over for a "bingo" night this week. It was super fun to have them over and to fill my home with extra laughs and chatter. With that said, I wanted to provide something for them to munch on. I decided that instead of only laying out carrot sticks....I would find a nice healthy balance. I made finger sandwiches with hummus, egg salad, chicken salad, and turkey club. That way people could choose if they wanted the lighter sandwiches or something full of protein but with a light mayo dressing. I also had pasta salad for them but made sure that there were some more lo cal options for me too by adding some veggies, grapes, and low fat cheese/cherry tomato kebabs. It felt funny not to serve punch or soda but I opted to do lemon/lime infused water with lots of ice. Dessert was awesome! I bought Yasso Greek Yogurt bars (coconut and vanilla) that Joy Bauer suggested to me. Light in calories and sugar and high in protein. Yummy! See....you can satisfy the est of both worlds without being too unhealthy or forcing your friends to follow your same diet.
