Eating Out? Eat Right!
No matter what type of restaurant you choose, you can
find healthy choices that you'll enjoy eating.
Here's how:
Go fish. As long as it isn't fried or soaked in
butter, fish is often the healthiest option on the
menu. Ask for yours grilled, baked, broiled, steamed,
or blackened. Poultry can be another good choice, if
you stick to the breast meat and remove the skin.
Double your veggies. Replace potatoes, white rice, or
pasta with a second helping of vegetables. Make sure
they're steamed or lightly sautéed in olive oil. Ask
for beans (black, red, kidney, or pinto), which are
high in fiber and disease-fighting antioxidants.
Another option: If you're on Phase 2 or 3, ask for
brown rice, couscous, or whole-wheat pasta, or request
a small helping of semolina pasta on the side.
Opt for olive oil. Request your food be cooked with
the "right" fats — olive oil or canola oil — instead
of butter or other saturated fats.
When in doubt, say salad. If nothing on the menu suits
your lifestyle, have a salad. Just remember to ask for
oil and vinegar instead of a pre-made dressing.
