Veggies and Fruit, you can never go wrong with those. Offer a few low fat/low cal dips to go with the veggies.
Chicken is very low in fat, just marinade it the day before and leave in fridge until you leave for BBQ. Fish and shelfish are great BBQ’d, especially things like mackerel and prawns as they are very tasty and low in fat. You could make vegetable kebabs with onions, mushrooms, peppers and tomato’s take corn on the cobs to bbq, make a salad……
Hi Lorena,
Most people think you must be strict when following a diet plan. However, it’s not always the case. I have a friend named Anna, she doesn’t diet at all but still keep a good shape. The biggest secret of diet is not diet at all. The most important thing is you need to avoid foods that contain bad fats to avoid.
There is a very good video you should take a look. I’m sure you will change your thinking about diet after watching it.
Hope you will have a nice weekend and be healthy.

Two great ways to make a barbecue more healthy is to add side dishes with plenty of fiber and which are low in fat. Try coleslaw made with extra virgin olive oil instead of mayonnaise. Try brown rice or cous cous instead of potato salad. For the barbecue itself, try using a rub instead of the traditional molasses and oil-based barbecue sauce. These changes can shave up to 500 calories per plate from your barbecue meal.
