It is most difficult for a person who is losing weight during the holidays, because you really want to treat yourself to something unusual and tasty during the celebration.

But popular holiday dishes are often high in calories and contain a lot of harmful ingredients, and here the problems begin - you want to cook something that is not just tasty, but also not too harmful.

In fact, a diet is not at all an obstacle to a delicious feast. Today we will tell you what you can cook for the holiday if you are on a diet. Arm yourself with your cooking notebook and write down our magical recipes!

Snacks and sandwiches

It is difficult to imagine a celebration without snacks and sandwiches, because they help not only add brightness to the festive table, but also diversify the menu.

Diet sandwiches with boiled turkey:

• Whole wheat bread
• green lettuce leaves
• Cucumber
• boiled turkey
• Skim cheese

These sandwiches can be made in several versions - in a classic version or in the form of sandwiches.

In the first case, you need to thinly cut a slice of whole grain bread (about 0.5-0.7 cm) and grease it with low-fat cottage cheese, on which a lettuce leaf, several slices of cucumber and a piece of boiled turkey are placed. In the second case, you need to do everything in exactly the same way, just this sandwich is additionally covered with another slice of whole grain bread.

Other low-calorie ingredients can be added to the sandwich if desired.

• Shrimps
• Onion
• Carrot
• Lemon
• Gelatin
• Celery root

This dish looks very festive and has an unusually delicate taste.

To prepare a snack in salted water, boil the shrimp for 3 minutes, then peel them from the shell. Boil eggs and broth from carrots, onions, celery root. You can also add spices to the broth, such as peppercorns or parsley with dill.

When the broth is ready, it must be strained, and then combined with soaked gelatin and brought to a boil.

Now you just have to beautifully put the shrimp in a festive dish, cut the boiled egg into circles, and placing it between the shrimp, pour it all over with the finished broth and let it harden.

The execution of this recipe can be whatever you like best - serve an appetizer directly in a common dish or lay out beautiful flowers, pyramids, balls cut out using culinary metal molds for each guest.

• Tomatoes
• Marinated mushrooms
• Buckwheat porridge
• Greenery
• Vegetable oil

For this dish, you need to choose ripe, but not too soft tomatoes. They should be thoroughly washed, get rid of the stalk, select the inside of the vegetable with a spoon, thus forming the caps.

Next, mix the pulp with salt, herbs, pickled mushrooms, cut into small pieces, and with buckwheat porridge.

To make the mixture more tasty and soft, it is recommended to lubricate it with a small amount of vegetable oil.

With the minced meat we fill our cups of tomatoes and close the lids. It turns out a beautiful, tasty and hearty festive dish.

Salads

Salads are an integral part of any festive menu for losing weight. At a festive feast, there should be at least three or four of them.

Of course, standard salads, such as olivier, herring under a fur coat, salad with crab sticks, firstly, are not dietary at all, since they contain mayonnaise, and secondly, these dishes have already become boring and are not considered exotic, and even more so, they cannot be called solemn for a long time. . Yes, you can replace the sausage with boiled chicken, but it’s hard to imagine the usual Russian salad without mayonnaise - few people like olive oil in this dish.

Therefore, let's leave outdated salad recipes in the past and try new dishes - easy to prepare, tasty and dietary masterpieces will perfectly complement the menu for any holiday.

• Carrot in Korean
• Boiled chicken fillet
• Pickled onion
• Olive oil

There is probably no salad recipe easier to make than this one. But, despite the ease of preparation, the combination of all the ingredients gives an incredible flavor tandem. The dish is tender, low-calorie and at the same time spicy.

For this dish, it is best to use Korean-style carrots with garlic, and not without it, and choose a wide dish as a container.

First you need to cut the boiled chicken fillet into small pieces and put it in the shape of a circle in the prepared container. Then you need to place a layer of pickled onions on the meat, sprinkle it lightly with olive oil and create a layer of Korean carrots. That's all. To decorate the finished dish, you can use any greens.

• Sweet and sour apples
• Celery
• low fat yogurt
• boiled egg

All the ingredients for this salad must be grated with a grater. It is advisable to use the option when the dish consists of long and thin slices. Mix all the prepared ingredients and spread the salad with low-fat yogurt.

This dish has a pleasant sweet and sour taste and an extraordinary aroma of celery, and the egg gives the salad softness and tenderness.

Vegetable salad:

Vegetable salads have always been popular during diets, because such a dish is not only light, but also healthy - vegetables are rich in vitamins.

You can combine vegetables as you like, based on your taste preferences, and you can season such salads with any vegetable oil, homemade sauces, and low-fat yogurt.

We offer one of the options:

• 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.

Light vegetable soup with parsnips:

• Carrot
• Greenery
• Parsnip

We clean the parsnips and cut them into slices, like potatoes for first courses. Add the vegetable to the simmering salted broth. After 10 minutes, we throw finely grated carrots, chopped onions, spices and herbs into the same water. Cook the soup for another 10-15 minutes and leave to brew for 30 minutes.

This dish can also be prepared using poultry, such as turkey or chicken. In this case, instead of water, it is better to use meat broth. The performance of the soup can be classic or in the form of mashed potatoes.

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 slimming body with all the useful substances that it needs so much during the diet.

To prepare the puree, you need to peel the parsnips and place them in boiling and lightly salted water. As soon as the vegetables are ready, drain the excess liquid and crush them to a puree state. It is better to serve this dish with olive oil, which can be poured into beautiful dishes or immediately poured over ready-made crushed parsnips.

• Zucchini
• bell pepper
• White cabbage
• Tomatoes
• Carrot
• Greenery
• Olive oil

We clean and cut all products. Then we combine the vegetables in equal proportions and stew in a saucepan or saucepan, after salting them and adding a few tablespoons of olive oil. It is best to add greens to the dish 10 minutes before it is ready, so that it has time to give off its aroma and at the same time does not lose its taste.

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

Chicken breast is the leanest part of the bird, which nutritionists recommend eating for everyone who is losing weight. Chicken is rich in protein and contains virtually no carbohydrates and fats. In addition, from this meat you can always cook something festive and very tasty.

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.

You need to cook the fish in an oven preheated to 180 ° for 30-40 minutes. Once cooked, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool. It remains to carefully get rid of the thread, decorate the fish with greenery - and you can serve it to your guests!

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

First you need to clean the mussels, then salt them well, pepper, add spices, sprinkle with lemon juice and pour over vegetable oil. Place the processed mussels in a tray and leave for a day. In 24 hours you will receive an incredibly delicious marinated seafood.

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.

First of all, you need to grind the carrots to a puree state. You can do this either with a blender or with a regular grater. Next, grind the butter and sugar together, then add a little flour and prepared carrots.

The resulting dough should be thoroughly mixed 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.

The drinks

It is undesirable for a person who is losing weight to drink any alcohol during the holidays, but you always want to treat yourself to a tasty and extraordinary drink. Let's look at a few options for original drinks for those who are on a diet.

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 it all thoroughly so that the mass is 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
• Oat flakes

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.

For a change, this recipe can be transformed by replacing bananas with other fruits - strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, peaches, and pears will be very tasty in an ensemble with the banana itself.

• Lemon juice

To prepare this refreshing drink, mix lemon juice with water heated to 50°C and sweeten with honey. Before serving, it is best to cool the drink, pour it into transparent glasses, provide guests with a straw, and hang a slice of lemon on the glass.

If you want to make the drink even more fresh and 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.

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,

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. Everything!

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.

The drinks

Choose 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!

Same way 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 to 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.

New Year's low-calorie desserts

The New Year for us is associated not only with the Christmas tree and Santa Claus, but also with an abundance of sweets, which we will prepare according to dietary recipes.

Banana curd roll

1. Grind oatmeal (6 tablespoons) in a blender until fine crumbs.
2. In the same container, add 350 g of cottage cheese, ¼ tsp. stevia extract (or 1 tsp stevia powder) and 1 egg, then beat the dough until smooth. The dough is sticky and quite dense.
3. We divide the mass into 2 parts and roll each piece into a layer 1-1.5 cm thick.
4. Put 1 peeled banana on each cake edge and wrap it in a roll. As a result, we get 2 rolls, which we need to transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment and send to the oven heated to 180 ° C for half an hour.

Before serving, the finished roll can be poured over with a carbohydrate-free syrup of your choice.

Fruits may well act as a low-calorie dessert. An original solution would be to serve lemon or orange fruit trees on the New Year's table. Or make a fruit salad.

To decorate the table, you can bake dietary oatmeal cookies in the form of Christmas trees, snowflakes or snowmen.

At the festive banquet, do not forget about drinks. Ordinary lemonades and juices are quite sweet, as a result of which the calorie content of such a soft drink can reach critical levels.
