Tips for a healthier christmas table

Making the Christmas table healthier can be a challenge, but there are several ways to make it more balanced and nutritious. Here are some tips for a healthier Christmas table:

1. Add different types of vegetables, such as lettuce, tomato, cucumber, carrots, and bell pepper. These provide color, flavor, and lots of nutrients.
2. Reduce the amount of sugar and fat in sauces and dressings. You can use yogurt or flavored oils instead of heavy cream-based sauces.
3. Add protein-rich dishes such as fish, beans, lentils, or quinoa to increase the feeling of fullness and support muscle health.
4. Offer healthy sides such as a fresh fruit or berry salad, or serve fruit as dessert instead of sugary pastries. You can, among other things, make Cookies with oats, banana, and freeze-dried mango, you can find the recipe here!
