Tip 1 : Make dinner once and serve it twice. Roast a larger cut of lean meat. Make a second meal using the ‘planned-over’ meat.

Tip 2 : Take a walk around the block after dinner. If you are still hungry, have a piece of fruit instead of a rich dessert.

Tip 3 : Veggie sushi is an easy way to add some vegetables. Order sushi rolls with cucumbers, mushrooms, asparagus, and/or carrots.

Tip 4 : On long car trips, pack fruit to snack on! Bananas, apples, plums, grapes, and nectarines all travel well!
