With the 4th of July just a couple of days away, I thought I'd share some lighter, healthier recipes to make and share at your picnic or barbeque. All of these recipes are via Cooking Light Magazine and MyRecipes.com.
For starters how about a refreshing Watermelon Margarita? It's only 105 calories and has very little sugar.
Next, doesn't this Fire-Seared Antipasto Platter look amazing? 291 calories--you can make it veggies only and save quite a few calories.
Grilled chicken is a staple at any picnic, how about changing it up with this Grilled Chicken with White Sauce recipe? Only 252 calories--less if you remove the skin before eating--leave it on to grill to maintain moistness in the chicken.
And a barbeque just isn't complete without Grilled Corn (there are 9 ways shown).
Lastly, we've got to have dessert! How about a Blueberry Crisp -- only 217 calories!
or a Bourbon Glazed Grilled Peach with yogurt? only 201 calories!
