Stay on your weight loss and nutritional plan for each course of your holiday meal.

Remember – to lose the weight and keep it off – YOU’VE GOT TO LIVE IT!
Appetizers:
• Peel and eat shrimp with a cocktail sauce
• Doc’s Rosemary Cheese Chips
• Doc’s Dill Yogurt Dip with Raw veggies: cucumbers (remember they are unlimited), celery, red, yellow and green peppers dipped in Doc’s Delicious Dip.
• Large scallops wrapped in Turkey Bacon (follow our recipe for scallops, but wrap in turkey bacon before cooking) Doc’s Seared Scallops.
Soups & Salads:
• Try any one of our delicious soups, but we suggest keeping it light with a big holiday meal!
• Doc’s Cucumber Salad is a light start to your holiday meal.
• Doc’s Iceberg Lettuce Wedge Just leave off the turkey and cheese when this is an appetizer to a larger meal.
Main Course:
• Turkey is a very lean protein!
• Use the natural gravy in the turkey roasting pan instead of a flour-based gravy (Don’t forget to spoon off the fat).
• Try Doc’s Stuffing, made with our Paleo bread.
• Instead of Cranberry Sauce, try one of these options: Fresh cranberries (adding Splenda is optional) or try Walden Farms Cranberry Sauce, which has zero calories. We now carry a large variety of Walden Farms products to help you stay on plan! (consider pre-ordering the Cranberry Sauce from us!)
• No mashed potatoes – serve Doc’s Garlic or Wasabi Smashed Cauliflower
• Doc’s Green Bean Crisps are a great substitute for the standard green bean casserole.
• Enjoy your vegetables but avoid those that are “dressed up.”
Dessert:
• Doc’s Baked Apples – a seasonal treat!
• Doc’s Ricotta Cinnamon Delight – a Sweet Treat
• Fresh fruit is always a good choice. Try one of these:
……o Simply Fresh Berries with Walden Farm’s Sugar-Free Chocolate Sauce
……o Sliced apples sprinkled with cinnamon and Splenda
……o Any fruit garnished with fresh mint
• Doc’s Grilled Peaches – YUM!
• For a “fancier” dessert you can serve Doc’s Strawberry Cheesecake – a sure winner!
