10 Tips Nutrition Education Series: Make Healthier Holiday Choices

The MyPlate Team continues to share “Makeover Monday” recipes each week on the USDA blog and the MyPlate Facebook page through January 6th.

This holiday season, the nutritionists at the Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion have shared some of their favorite holiday recipes during our MyPlate Holiday Makeover Series. Today, we offer a new tip sheet, Make Healthier Holiday Choices to help you improve a few of your favorite recipes and stay healthier during this festive season. The new tip sheet includes special ways to celebrate with family and friends such as making exercise part of the fun, enjoying all the food groups during your holiday meal, and giving some of your time to help others.

Be sure to check out the rest of our MyPlate Holiday Makeover Series and visit www.myplate.gov for more ideas, nutrition advice, and recipes.

Happy Holidays! Have a safe and healthy New Year.
