A Food Tip: 4th of July
06.26.10
Are you diet conscious this Fourth of July but still want to attend the barb-b-ques and summer soirees? Don’t let the hamburger patties and hot dogs scare you away! If the bar-b-que is at your pad, grill up some all turkey dogs and turkey burgers for a less-fat, less-calorie but just as filling meal! If you are going to a pals bar-b-que and all they offer are all beef products, enjoy the hamburger without the bun and cheese and enjoy fresh fruit, jello or a fresh salad instead of the mayo-laden macaroni and cheese or potato salad. Fourth of July is meant to be spent with loved ones and fireworks, not with you focusing on calories and fat grams!
