T.G.I. FRIDAY'S - Food Menu

Tip 1 : Look for lower fat cheeses like part-skim mozzarella, or reduced fat versions of Monterey Jack, Swiss, Colby, Cheddar & Muenster.

Tip 2 : Need a snack? Spread peanut butter on apple slices or top frozen yogurt with berries or slices of kiwi fruit.

Tip 3 : Cut-up fruit makes a great snack. Cut them yourself, or buy pre-cut packages of fruit pieces like pineapple or melon.

Tip 4 : You are more likely to drink what you buy--try to keep fat-free or low-fat milk on hand.

Tip 5 : Butternut squash tastes great oven roasted and pureed. Use it to make it a soup or add it to risotto! Look for recipes online.

Tip 6 : Make twice-baked sweet potatoes using ricotta or other low-fat cheeses in place of sour cream or cream cheese.

Tip 7 : Make twice-baked potatoes with plain yogurt instead of sour cream. Top with chopped green onions or chives.

Tip 8 : Expand your fruit horizons--have you tried papaya, passion fruit, litchi, star fruit, or pomegranate?

Tip 9 : Looking for a new way to eat Brussels sprouts? They can be boiled, sautéed, or oven roasted to go along with any meal.

Tip 10 : Going out--think ethnic. Indian, Thai and Chinese dishes offer lots of yummy vegetable options.
