Girls Holiday Dinner!

Daily Tidbit:    Every December I get together with my girl friends from high school to celebrate the holidays over Dinner.  Everyone brings something and there is always loads of super yummy foods (just a few of them in the pic above)! 

Here are some healthy holiday dinner ideas worth considering if you are having guests over or are heading out for a fun night with good friends and good food:

Shredded Wheat Cereal with Walnuts

Breakfast: Shredded Wheat & Walnuts
1 cup Plain Shredded Wheat (not frosted/ no sugar!)
1 cup Fat Free Milk
2 tbsp Plain chopped Walnuts
5oz Orange Juice
Regular Coffee, sprinkle Cinnamon, splash Fat Free Milk


*Trader Joe's Shredded Wheat Cereal has just 2 ingredients:  Wheat & Vitamin E for freshness.  That is it, nothing else!

Snack:  1/4 cup dry roasted, lightly salted Peanuts
Large Fountain Diet Coke


I was out for a day of shopping and brought my Peanuts along.  They are amazing for quickly satisfying hunger especially when you don't have a lot of time to sit down and eat.  I did however have to go through the drive-thru on my way home to pick up a Diet Coke to recharge my batteries; after 5 hours of shopping I needed it!
