Food Friday - July 4th
Posted by leah on Jul 4, 2008
Since the 4th of July is a big BBQ holiday, I’m taking a break from my health food of the week to give you some healthy grilling ideas.
- skinless chicken breast
- veggie burgers, salmon burgers, or turkey burgers instead of beef
- veggies like corn on the cob, bell peppers, onions, fancy mushrooms, and even tomatoes are good grilled
And some side dishes to serve with your BBQ:
- fruit salad
- sliced watermelon
- whole-grain buns for burgers or grilled chicken sandwiches
- tomato, onion, and lettuce for sandwiches/burgers
- green salad with dressing made from balsamic vinegar, a bit of fruit juice, and olive oil
- baked whole-grain chips with fresh salsa made from diced tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, and cilantro - delicious!
