Share Your Favorite Party Dish!

[Alex Brecher 10,512]

New Year’s is a time for parties, and that means you need to be extra careful with your diet. Most party food is pretty bad for your waistline if not outright forbidden on the weight loss surgery diet: think cocktail franks, cheese dip with crackers, and bacon wrapped onion rings.

Still, there are plenty of healthier options…and after WLS, you’ve probably explored a lot of them! They can be simple, like fruit and veggie trays or skewers with cheese and veggies, but you may have explored some more gourmet – but still healthy – options. The trick is to keep it healthy – for you – while making it delicious for everyone else.

So, when you go to a party or host one, what is your favorite dish to bring?

At my Mom's my favorite was the meat and cheese tray!

Tried and true favorite is a shrimp platter. Yummy.

I like to make cold spinach dip with Greek yogurt in place of the sour cream/mayo and serve with raw veggies instead of bread or crackers.

Fresh homemade hummus, w/veggies and wheat pita, tear into pieces, bake in oven with a bit olive oil, sprinkle lightly w/salt, onion powder and garlic. They get crispy and delish!Always a big hit and no left overs ????
