If you are trying to watch you calories during Summer, you definitely face some challenges. Think gooey ice cream sandwiches, sugary sweet iced tea and loads of macaroni salad! But there are also a wealth of HEALTHY advantages that summer provides.
Grilling is such an easy and delicious way to cook both proteines and vegetables in a tasty and yet healthy way! Grilled chicken, shishkebabas, zucchini, portabello mushrooms...I could go on all day! Turkey burgers, salmon burgers, salmon...teriyaki glazed or with a little bbq sauce...my mouth is already watering!
Add to that the plethora of in season fruits and vegetables at their prime, and summer time is GOOD EATS time!
But, you can still miss those cold sweet treats.
Give these ideas a try!
Check out fudgesicles. Even the standard sugar varieties tend to be relatively low calorie compared to ice cream or even juice bars.
Freeze your OWN juice bars...with low sugar juices or with water added. Add bits of fresh summer fruit or fresh chopped mint!
If you need a GUILT FREE TREAT try a NO calorie version of a snow cone. I take crushed ice from my freezer (you may have to buy crushed ice or buy an ice crusher if your fridge doesn't have one). I squirt on a healthy dose of Strawberry Watermellon Miio. Viola! Delicious and totally guilt free.
You are welcome!
