lettuce leaves
cucumbers
Radish
green onion
Dill, parsley
Olive oil

Vegetables need to be cut, mixed and seasoned with oil. Thanks to the play of colors, this salad looks appetizing and beautiful.

First

The first dishes on the ceremonial tables are not always, and their choice depends entirely on the tastes of the hostess. But be that as it may, if this is not the usual soup or borscht, then any first course can become a harmonious opening of the festive menu.

Broth with salmon and herbs:

Salmon
Greenery
Carrot

Bring water to a boil, add rice, finely grated carrots, chopped onion, and finely chopped salmon. We simmer the dish on a light fire for 15-20 minutes, add herbs and salt to it. Seaweed looks very elegant in this dish, which you can also add to the broth if you wish.

We serve our fragrant masterpiece in small broth bowls.

Champignon
Carrot
Parsnip
Greenery
Olive oil

In a heated pan with olive oil, fry the onions, carrots and parsnips. Then we throw champignons and our mixture of vegetables into boiling water. We salt everything.

5 minutes before the readiness, season the broth with herbs.

When the soup is ready, using a blender, beat it to a puree state, pour it into bowls and decorate with parsley.

Second

Today, the variety of products in supermarkets allows you to prepare the most interesting side dishes, using proven recipes or experimenting with new ones. Among the huge number of dishes, there are enough recipes for losing weight.

Canned corn
Carrot
Red bell pepper
Greenery
Olive oil

Rice is an excellent side dish that is healthy, satisfying and looks very appetizing in this dish.

To prepare this side dish, we need a tall saucepan. First you need to finely chop the onion, and send it to a saucepan, greased with olive oil, and then grate the carrots. When the onion acquires a golden color, we send the carrots to it for just a couple of minutes.

At this time, cut the bell pepper into small squares. In this case, it is best to give preference to an unripe or completely greenish vegetable so that it retains its appearance and does not boil during cooking. Pepper is also added to the saucepan for 3-5 minutes.

Pour the resulting mixture with water and salt. Add rice and bring it to a boil over low heat. 5 minutes before the end of cooking, add canned corn and greens to the dish. We mix everything thoroughly, serve it to the table in wide dishes - so guests can enjoy not only the taste of the dish, but also its appearance.

Parsnip
Olive or any other vegetable oil

Mashed potatoes are an invariable dish of any solemn menu. But in fact, potatoes are not light and dietary, as they contain a lot of starch. Some of us practice soaking potatoes before cooking them just to get rid of the starch, but why mock a vegetable like that when there is a great alternative to this dish - mashed parsnips!

This puree tastes a bit sweet, but it is rich in vitamins and minerals, and is able to saturate the losing weight body with all the useful substances that it needs so much during the diet.

bell pepper
White cabbage
Tomatoes
Carrot

Meat and fish dishes, seafood

A worthy addition to the festive table will be at least one meat or fish dish. At the same time, it is important for us to remember that our menu is dietary, therefore, recipes should also be low-calorie.

chicken breast
Soy sauce

First, prepare the sauce - mix soy sauce and honey in a 2: 1 ratio until smooth.

Then add salt to the chicken breast, grease it with the finished sauce and let it soak for several hours.

Bake the meat on a baking sheet for 40 minutes. During this time, the chicken will acquire a crispy crust and an incredibly appetizing honey hue.

boiled rice
Champignon
Carrot
Foil for baking

First we need to take care of the fish - clean and salt the carp. Then

Let's start preparing the stuffing. To do this, first fry the onions and carrots in a pan along with finely chopped champignons, then combine the finished mixture with pre-boiled rice. We place the minced meat inside the carp, sew the fish together with a thread and wrap it in foil for baking.

Seafood has always been considered a dietary product. Mussels, shrimps, squids - you can cook more than one worthy solemn dish from them. But during weight loss, it is best to give preference to baking seafood or marinating it.

So, to cook pickled mussels, we need:

mussels
Vegetable oil
Pepper
Spices
Lemon

By the way, this method of pickling is the safest and most useful, because mussels are cooked with salt and their own juice, without the addition of vinegar.

Desserts and pastries

If you are on a diet, then you have to limit yourself to the use of sweets - buns and confectionery are prohibited. That is why desserts and pastries for losing weight should consist of a fruit base, be non-fat and low-calorie.

Jelly rainbow in a glass:

Beautiful transparent glasses
Jelly in different colors and flavors

In fact, you probably won’t find a simpler dessert. To prepare this yummy, you only need store-bought jelly and beautiful dishes. But if you do not want to use the powder version of jelly, you can safely replace it with homemade compotes (cherry, apple, apricot), condensed with gelatin.

So, for starters, we dilute the first jelly with boiling water and pour it about 3 cm thick onto the bottom of our dishes. Then we put the glasses in a cool place for a couple of hours.

When the first layer hardens, pour the second layer of jelly in the same way. For the second layer, choose a jelly with a contrasting color, for example, pour red or yellow on green.

So you need to do as many times as you want to have layers in the finished dessert. The top of your culinary miracle can be decorated with any fruit. In this case, kiwi or orange looks very advantageous, which will match in color to one of the layers of our dessert.

Important to remember! All layers of jelly, except for the first, must be poured when the jelly is barely warm, not hot. Otherwise, the top hot layer will simply melt the lower layers, and the result will not be a bright rainbow, but a messy jelly mixture of different colors.

Curd casserole with raisins:

Low-fat cottage cheese
Raisins (you can use dried apricots or even pineapple instead of raisins)
Vanilla
small amount of fructose

First you need to rinse the raisins and pour hot water over them for 40 minutes. When the dried fruit is steamed, mix low-fat cottage cheese with eggs, vanilla and sweeten the mixture with fructose, add raisins.

Grease the mold with olive oil or use parchment paper. Bake the resulting dough for 30 minutes in an oven heated to 180 °.

When serving, you can decorate the dish with any seasonal fruit.

Carrot
Sugar
Baking powder
Butter

Although flour is used in this recipe, the cookies are low in calories and are great for those who are trying to lose those extra pounds.

The resulting dough should be thoroughly stirred for several minutes, and then add a little baking powder and mix everything well again.

Cookies need to be baked in the oven at 150 ° for about 20-25 minutes. During this time, it will be thoroughly baked inside and acquire a delicious golden crust. You can also make cute cupcakes from this dough - both healthy and beautiful.

If you want to spice up this recipe, you can add any dried fruits or nuts to it.

Beverages

Cocktail "Blood with milk":

Low fat sour cream
Tomato juice
Pepper

This cocktail is such an alternative to the well-known Bloody Mary, but at the same time it has a milder taste.

It is worth drinking the drink immediately after preparation, otherwise sour cream can give a slight bitterness.

To begin with, you need to put a few tablespoons of sour cream in glasses and pour them with tomato juice, then mix all this thoroughly to make the mass homogeneous.

While stirring, you can add salt and pepper at your discretion. And you can not use pepper at all if you are not a fan of spicy dishes.

Bananas
low fat yogurt
low fat milk
Cereals

Very ripe bananas are not suitable for making this smoothie, so it is better to buy those that have a greenish or completely green peel.

We take milk and yogurt in equal amounts, oatmeal - to taste. Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Sugar is not worth adding - bananas will give the drink the necessary sweetness.

Lemon juice

If you want to make the drink even fresher and more cooling, which will be very appropriate in a hot summer, then you can add mint to it, and you can even replace the lemon with lime.

You have already seen that it is not difficult to create a festive menu for losing weight - if you experiment with low-calorie and healthy foods, you will definitely get an original and tasty dish.

Many girls have been asking for a long time to compose and lay out an approximate holiday menu. I myself always wanted to make a kind of cheat sheet that would always be at hand. And since not far off numerous new year holidays, I decided to collect the best diet dishes for the New Year 2019, moreover, only those pp-recipes that will not affect your figure in any way!

However, all this is suitable not only for the meeting of 2019 and seeing off 2018, but also for any other celebration - birthday, meetings with girlfriends, family holidays!

Getting ready for the holidays right

Our traditions are so closely connected with hospitable feasts that for most pp-shniks, especially beginners, the holiday turns into real torture. On the eve of celebrations, many people experience real stress, tormenting themselves with questions - “to eat or not to eat?”, “to drink or not?”, “how not to break loose”, “what if I get fat again from a sandwich?”. Some even refuse friendly and family communication, as they are afraid not to restrain themselves and succumb to temptations!

Perhaps the New Year is one of the most difficult such holidays.

But what if you cook only healthy meals?

After all, there are so many delicious things in pp - holiday salads(light, tasty and without mayonnaise!), meat and fish, seafood and even sweets - cakes, desserts, sweets!

It turns out that we do not refuse a feast, we will talk with relatives, we will eat tasty treats and we will not forget about losing weight and a healthy lifestyle!

It's just a dream!

PP menu for the holiday: basic rules

We will compose the New Year's menu of the pp-shnik so that no one is left hungry. Basically, all recipes have already been described by the authors of the site. PP Delicious! - you just need to follow the links.

Cooking all this is easy, since most of the recipes are “lazy”, that is, you don’t need to kill yourself near the stove.

IN list of dishes for a festive pp-feast I recommend including:

something meaty;
something fishy;
sandwiches;
2-3 types of cold snacks;
several salads;
dishes for the sweet tooth.

In addition, buy a lot of fresh variety of fruits and vegetables. Be sure to think over drinks - homemade juices without sugar, compotes. , For example, - perfect solution!

Can do non-alcoholic mojito:

in 3 l. water brew 3 tbsp. green tea;
cool, squeeze the juice of 1 lemon, cut another half into rings and throw it in;
tear fresh mint there (a small bunch).
If you like, add honey or any other sweetener.

The question of alcohol on the festive table decide for yourself. Ideally, drinks should be only non-alcoholic, but I think a glass of champagne under the chiming clock or wine is quite possible.

Best Holiday Recipes

Now let's move on to the list of what exactly will be on the diet. New Year's table.

something meaty

The easiest way is to bake whole chicken, rubbing it with salt and spices.

Marinate raw for an hour, bake for 2 hours at a temperature of 200 degrees.

If the wings-legs burn, cover them with foil.

Chicken is good cold too.

The coming year is the year of the Pig, so astrologers recommend not serving anything from pork to the festive table, which fits perfectly into the principles of proper nutrition!

something fishy

Those who fast will love these recipes!

Sandwiches and pp-snacks

Low-calorie snacks are not a myth either.! Make and cook stuffed eggs- not a snack, but a real dream for those who love fitness, as protein in such a dish is simply a record amount - 11 g per 100 g with a calorie content of 65 kcal!

I also recommend baking grilled marinated champignons. Making them is easy:

fill a 3-liter jar with mushrooms (before that, wash them, dry them);
pour in the juice of half a lemon, 3 tbsp. soy sauce, 2 tbsp. vegetable oil and 0.5 tsp. ground chili pepper;
shake every 15 minutes for an hour;
then put the mushrooms on a baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes in the oven at a temperature of 200 degrees.

Low calorie holiday salads

I don’t know why, but many people have a problem with pp-salads for the holiday. There are just a lot of recipes, you can see for yourself, perhaps you will like some more than those offered.

I offer 3 different options:

of course, what a New Year without;

It's no secret that many young ladies make great efforts to keep their proportions in their original form. A variety of tricks are used: special teas, physical exercise and, first of all, special nutrition, which is most often called the generalized word "".

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. invented great amount dishes that differ excellent taste and smell, but at the same time they 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 night food hasn't done anyone any good yet. In order to try to find a compromise between these two factors, you just need to work out a suitable diet new year 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 appetizers can be light and tasty too.

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 entrails, and a large number greenery.

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 rolls from fresh cucumbers . 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 delicious and low calorie meal I 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 easy 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 made the decision to prepare diet recipes for the New Year, then as vegetable dish best to use baked fish . For example, salmon fillet on a vegetable pillow. For this dish, you need to marinate in advance. portioned pieces fillet: salt and cover with lemon slices for half an hour. At this time you need to prepare vegetable pillow: grate the carrots, cut the 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 it appetizing but light dish need directly in the 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 slim figure. Especially if it's traditional. New Year's baking, cakes, chocolate chip cookie and other tasty, but not very pleasant products for the waist.
Instead, you can cook diet meals for the New Year of the Snake, for example, light dessert 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 bank canned pineapple, 500 grams, two eggs, 3 tablespoons of sugar and one flour. Mix the yolks with flour, sugar and pineapple syrup, grind and heat in a water bath until thick cream.

Transfer everything together into bowls and leave in the refrigerator. The resulting volume should be enough for four servings.
