• a piece of chicken breast fillet - 200 g;
• 100 g of grapes (select a branch with large dark red berries);
• lettuce leaves (pieces 3-5);
• apples - 50 g;
• low-fat unsweetened yogurt.

2. then cut each grape in half,
3. cut apple into cubes
4. chop up the lettuce.
5. Mix all ingredients in a salad bowl.
6. You can add a little salt and a pinch of pepper.
7. Dress the salad with yogurt.

It turns out an unusual tasty dish, hearty, but not harmful to the stomach.

Beetroot is a great appetizer

1. Taking a couple of medium-sized fruits, boil them.
2. Then grate and add a clove of garlic, also pre-chopped.
3. Such a beet salad is seasoned with either a small amount of sour cream or low-fat mayonnaise. You can salt if you wish.

Hot New Year's dishes

By the time the chimes start to strike midnight, the "salad warming up" is over, and it's time for the "main composition" - hot dishes. Vegetable pilaf can be attributed to New Year's dietary (and very tasty) dishes.

Vegetable pilaf

For its preparation necessary:

• regular or steamed rice (1.5 cups);
• a handful of Brussels sprouts;
• 1 carrot;
• 2 handfuls of chanterelle or champignon mushrooms (optional)
• 1 bulb.
• 1 onion and 8 cloves of garlic
• sage, basil, black pepper, salt - to taste

Cooking:

1. Cut the vegetables (but not too finely so that porridge does not turn out), fill with water to about half and simmer for several minutes.
2. Then you should add rice, salt everything, add seasonings and cook until tender.

Whether to “enrich” the dish with chanterelles (or champignons) depends on your desire. With them, the taste becomes more interesting, and the appetite is quenched faster.

If the pilaf is with mushrooms, then they should be fried separately and added to the finished pilaf.

Beans with hazelnuts

On hot, you can also serve such a (purely vegetarian) dish: beans with hazelnuts.

1. About 400 g of frozen beans and 150 g of green peas should be stewed together.
2. Separately, prepare a mixture of the zest of one orange, 50 g chopped roasted hazelnuts and a small amount of melted butter.

When serving (when warm), pour the beans and peas with the resulting sauce.

And now the New Year's diet dessert!

Let the sweet dish be the conclusion of the feast.

Cook baked apples with cottage cheese

They are not prohibited even with diseases of the pancreas and stomach ulcers.

It is necessary to prepare:

• half a kilo of apples;
• a handful of nuts;
• 100 g low-fat cottage cheese
• 50 g sour cream;
• A small amount of cinnamon and vanilla.

Cooking:

Having cut the core out of the apples, they must be stuffed with a mixture of cottage cheese, sour cream, vanillin and cinnamon. Apples are baked in the oven for half an hour. After cooking, sprinkle with chopped nuts. Everything, a wonderful diet dish is ready!

Fruit salad

At the end of the feast, offer guests a light snack that requires almost no effort to prepare. This is a fruit salad. For him you will need any fruits and berries:

• apples;
• tangerines;
• pears;
• grape;
• kiwi;
• yogurt.

Cooking:

Fruits are cut into even cubes, laid out in bowls and seasoned with low-fat yogurt.

On New Year's Eve, it is not necessary to gorge yourself so that you can then deal with the consequences. You can build yourself and your guests a wonderful diet table, the basis of which will be lean meat or fish, vegetables and fruits.

Dry or semi-sweet wines are suitable as "hot" wines. Then the celebration will take place with a bang, and the first morning of the coming year will not be difficult, but joyful. Well, let's arrange a "dietary" New Year's feast?

So, we choose the method of cooking products, plan dressing, dessert and drinks.

It will be difficult for those who are forced to celebrate the New Year in the power of "hard" traditions, surrounded by people who do not want to support a new way of life /

Then you can be advised to choose a more "healthy" dish, control the amount eaten, and, if possible, then sit less.

Budget holiday menu 2019 with recipes

Salads

Of course, it would be nice to give up mayonnaise and opt for sauces based on natural yogurt, olive oil, egg yolk. You can use soy mayonnaise, it is less high-calorie (about 450 kcal per 100 g), but quite specific in taste.

But... What is the New Year without Olivier? Is it worth it to torture yourself like that? Will the New Year pass without Olivier?

It is not at all necessary to give up your favorite and traditional salad for the New Year holidays, use the low-calorie Olivier recipe, which has been very popular lately.

Replace sausages and smoked meats in the salad with boiled or baked chicken breast or other lean meat, reduce the amount of potatoes and use mayonnaise sauce for dressing, the recipe of which is described below.

The fact is that the taste of Olivier salad is formed mainly by potatoes, peas, pickles, peppers and dressing.

Pp Olivier

Olivier recipe with chicken breast

Sausage in a salad can always be replaced with chicken breast / legs / thigh.

If you are used to Olivier salad with smoked meats, you can add a pinch of "smoked" spices in honor of the holiday. Other ingredients can be added according to your own taste without compromising the dish.

Potato.

Green pea.

Salted cucumber is better to replace with lightly salted. Even though this increases the amount of salt in the salad, without pickles, the taste of olivier is not at all the same.

Hard boiled eggs.

Mayonnaise Sauce: Mix equal proportions of low-calorie, unsweetened yogurt (available at most major supermarkets) and diet low-fat mayonnaise.

Add a little mustard (usually 1/2 teaspoon of mustard goes to a cup of ready-made sauce), salt and spices to taste. Such a sauce in salads is almost indistinguishable from ordinary mayonnaise, and the calories in it are about 2-3 times less, depending on how low-fat the ingredients you prefer.

It is likely that if you do not tell the guests about the substitution, they may not notice the difference at all.

Salt, pepper to taste.

Greenery for decoration.

hotter

Again, choose low-fat varieties, it is better to give up pork and duck! The best cooking method is baking (sleeve, foil, grill), holiday cooking options are minced meat recipes, meat in pots, aspic.

Veal, rabbit, chicken, turkey preferably pork or lamb, and red fish, pink salmon, salmon, trout, salmon, chum salmon, valuable for its high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids.

It is optimal to choose vegetables for side dishes, but less potatoes, or the potatoes should be boiled or baked, but not boiled in meat fat or fried.

Prepare an original, but very tasty dish: pink salmon in orange jam.

Pink salmon with orange jam

Ingredients for 2 servings:

• 300 gr. pink salmon,
• 0.5 orange,
• 25 gr. orange jam,
• 25 gr. mustard (preferably Dijon)
• 25 ml. soy sauce,
• ½ teaspoon ground coriander
• sesame seeds to taste.

Cooking:

Squeeze juice from orange. If you're making fish with a salad, cut some more zest for the salad.

Make marinade: mix jam, orange juice, mustard, soy sauce and coriander. Leave some of the marinade for the salad, you won't regret it.

We cut pink salmon into portions, put it in a mold, pour marinade over it and let it stand for 30 minutes.

Sprinkle with sesame seeds and send to the oven preheated to 180 degrees for 15 minutes. All!

One serving contains: 283 gr., 25.8 gr. protein, 14 gr. fat, 11.3 gr. carbohydrates.

Perfect Snacks

Caviar This is a great useful product. In a festive classic version with bread, butter, sour cream and mushrooms, it is a very heavy meal. Do not combine caviar with meat dishes and sausages. Cook dishes with caviar separately, preferably in the form of canapés.

We know that this is not the cheapest option, but you must admit - once a year you can treat yourself to such an exquisite and delicious delicacy!







Salty fish. Our most beloved and simple recipe, while being cheap and affordable for everyone, is.

Beverages

Opt for water or cocktails based on water and fruits (lemon, orange, pear, apple, strawberry), add fruit puree (mango, passion fruit, melon), spices (ginger, ground cinnamon, vanilla). These drinks are consumed both hot and cold.

Remember, store-bought juices are just as high in calories as soda and contain exactly the same amount of sugar.

Dessert

With a well-designed menu, you can eat and not overeat, then the need for sweets will disappear by itself. If you want a holiday, then it is quite possible to eat a light dessert ( cheesecake, soufflé, fruit jelly).

You can also cook wonderful chocolate panna cotta with coconut milk! Panna cotta (panna cotta) is a delicate Italian dessert. Traditionally, it is made with milk, but you can make panna cotta in an unusual, vegan version - with coconut milk.

Instead of chocolate, you can add mashed dates, prunes or some berries to the dessert:

Ingredients:

• Milk of the highest fat content - 400 ml.,
• water - 200 ml.,
• sugar / stevia / other sugar substitute - 2 tablespoons,
• bitter chocolate - 120 gr.,
• agar-agar (gelatin) - 1 tablespoon without a slide.

Cooking:

1. Heat the milk to a temperature of about 70-80 degrees. Don't boil!
2. Pour half the milk over broken or grated chocolate.
3. Stir thoroughly until the chocolate has melted, until a homogeneous chocolate ganache is formed.
4. Put the other half of the milk back on the fire.
5. Add water, add sugar and agar. To stir thoroughly. Bring the mixture to a boil.
6. Mix with chocolate ganache.
7. Pour the chocolate mixture into molds and refrigerate for half an hour.

The finished dessert can be sprinkled with grated chocolate or nuts. Bon appetit!

It is best to leave the cake / pastries / sweets for the next day as a separate meal, in the morning. At the same time, you must be sure that you eat only the required amount and do not “break loose”, as well!

Also you can simply replace sugar in desserts with stevia syrup or a low-calorie sweetener. There are rumors around many artificial ones about their harm to health, but there is still no convincing evidence for or against.

But be careful when choosing a sweetener, in fact, not all of them are dietary, for example, agave syrup or corn syrup are not inferior in calories to sugar at all (you can read more at the link above). If in doubt, prefer stevia syrup, but keep in mind that a spoonful of sugar is replaced by just a few drops of this product.

In large quantities, almost any strong sweetener will give dishes a bitter taste!

Advice: replace the usual butter cream in desserts with mascarpone cream or and.

To prepare the cream, you will need the cheese or cottage cheese itself, ripe bananas (the skin of which is covered with small brown dots) and a blender. Mix the ingredients thoroughly and, if necessary, add a couple of drops of stevia or a sweetener tablet.

This cream is very tasty and, as a rule, children adore it. You can serve it as an independent dish in bowls, after decorating the dessert with mint leaves or pieces of fruit.

Fruits

Be sure to put a fruit plate on the table. During the New Year holidays, there is a harvest of such yummy things as tangerines, oranges, pineapples and bananas, which, accordingly, become cheaper during this period.

Take this opportunity to please yourself and your loved ones. And if bananas and citrus fruits are already pretty boring for the New Year, then ripe pineapples served with low-fat yogurt can replace cakes or ice cream with great success at the same (if not less) cost.

How to behave

Before the feast

The main rule is no fasting! It is better to sit down at the table slightly full than hungry as a beast, since abstinence or a long break between meals during the day provokes nightly overeating.

Half an hour before the feast, the best way out is to eat something rich, protein and a little sweet (an apple, banana, some nuts or a few spoons of fresh vegetable salad, 200-250 grams of boiled lean meat) and drink sweetened tea or a glass of water.

This will provide a quick rise in blood sugar levels, some feeling of satiety and a decrease in appetite. In addition, fiber binds fats and promotes good bowel function.

During

To avoid overeating, try everything you want, but just try - eat a little. According to the "rule of the palm" recommended by nutritionists, a single serving should not exceed 350 grams, and most of it should be fresh vegetables and meat.

Be sure to make sure that in your New Year's first aid kit there are drugs that improve digestion and help with heartburn, bloating, overeating, flatulence, excessive stress on the liver and pancreas: festal, smecta, activated carbon, mezim, creon, maalox, almagel.

Follow the degree rule. Remember, the degree of alcohol can not be lowered! If you want to try several drinks, drink the lighter one first (wine, liquor), and only then - vodka, whiskey or cognac.

For those who "I only eat skinless chicken breast, what should I do on New Year's Eve"

Exhale and loosen the reins. There is no need for the suffering of a holy cultist from the sect of the purest food!

For example, chicken - with or without skin - is still a diet food. This piece of skin with fat weighs 50 grams and consists of 55% monounsaturated fatty acids, like olive oil, which everyone praises (). Yes, there are also 2.5-3 grams of saturated fat in the skin. But trust me, you can get through it.

Happy New Year! Be healthy!

Many people who are not familiar with the arts of cooking and weight loss believe that a diet is something sad, because a girl must exhaust herself daily by eating a cabbage leaf and half an apple. But in fact, this is absolutely not the case. A huge number of dishes have been invented that are distinguished by excellent taste and smell, but at the same time have a small amount of such terrible calories.

For those who still adhere to such a nutrition system, the New Year becomes a difficult, sometimes unbearable test. Indeed, according to tradition, it should be celebrated at a richly laid table, and nightly food has never brought anything good to anyone. In order to try to find a compromise between these two factors, you just need to work out a suitable New Year's diet menu. The choice here is huge, but in order to make it a little easier, we, as always, will give a few recommendations.

Appetizers and salads

Thanks to kind suppliers who bring fresh vegetables and fruits even in winter, New Year's salads and snacks can also be light and tasty.




1. For example, you can cook stuffed tomatoes. To do this, for vegetables of the same size, you need to cut off the tops, remove the pulp and fill the void with the filling. It can be made from a mixture of boiled rice, chopped olives, garlic, tomato innards and lots of herbs.




2. By the way, tomatoes can be used in another form: cut into circles, put a spoonful of fried minced chicken mixed with herbs, sprinkle with grated low-fat cheese and bake in the oven or microwave to melt the cheese. Instead of a tomato, you can use other vegetables (tomatoes or pre-baked eggplants) as well as other fillings: for example, cottage cheese mixed with herbs and garlic.



3. Can be used fresh cucumber rolls . To do this, they need to be cut into longitudinal layers, rolled up in the form of a cylinder, chopped off with a skewer and put the filling inside.




4. Another tasty and low-calorie dish can be baked shrimp . To do this, peeled shrimp should be put in a baking dish and poured with a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs and garlic and left in the oven for 10-15 minutes at 200 degrees.




5. As a general, you can apply very light vegetable salad from crushed apple, celery root, cucumbers and cheese, seasoned with unsweetened yogurt. By the way, it can be laid out on a plate in the form of a snake, garnished with sliced ​​​​rings of olives imitating scales.

Main course




If you have firmly decided to cook diet recipes for the New Year, then it is best to use as a vegetable dish baked fish . For example, salmon fillet on a vegetable pillow. For this dish, you need to marinate portioned fillets in advance: salt and overlay with lemon slices for half an hour. At this time, you need to prepare a vegetable pillow: grate carrots, cut onion into half rings, mix and put on square pieces of foil. Put a piece of fish on top of the pillow and cover it with circles of tomatoes and lemon. Roll up the foil with a “boat”, and pour a little wine inside. Put everything together for half an hour in the oven at 200 degrees. Serve this appetizing yet light dish directly wrapped in foil.

Dessert

On the one hand, dessert is the most pleasant part of the New Year, and indeed of any other table. But on the other hand, it is also the strongest temptation for all women who are fighting for a slim figure. Especially if it is traditional New Year's pastries, cakes, chocolate cookies and other tasty, but not very pleasant products for the waist.
Instead, you can prepare diet meals for the New Year of the Snake, such as a light dessert made from fresh or canned fruit. Eg, pineapple cream . By the way, this fruit has long established itself as the first assistant to all those who lose weight.




He needs a can of canned pineapples, 500 grams, two eggs, 3 tablespoons of sugar and one flour. Stir the yolks with flour, sugar and pineapple syrup, grind and heat in a water bath until a thick cream is formed. At the same time, beat egg whites until fluffy. Combine both masses, mix thoroughly, add chopped pineapple pieces (leave some for decorations). Transfer everything together into bowls and leave in the refrigerator. The resulting volume should be enough for four servings.

Here is such an easy-to-follow and figure-friendly diet menu for the New Year that will appeal to all women who believe that they have a couple of extra pounds. But, for sure, everyone else will not deny themselves the pleasure of trying such mouth-watering dishes.
