And what would New Year be without delicious food, right?

What to do if you want to try popular and favorite New Year's recipes, but at the same time not gain weight?! =)

Dietary recipes for the New Year will help us out!!!

It turns out that almost all the dishes we know have light versions, which are no less tasty, but more healthy!!!

From this article you will learn:

All our beloved traditional salads “Olivier”, “Shuba”, “Mimosa”, without which it is impossible to even imagine a New Year’s table - all this not only CAN be eaten, but also NEEDED!

Yes Yes! We just need to prepare them so that they are not harmful, not too high in calories, not fatty, and do not subsequently bring us heaviness in the stomach, digestive problems and extra centimeters on the waist and hips.

“Our task is to make your home New Year’s holiday table beautifully decorated, with a wide variety of tasty, satisfying and at the same time healthy low-calorie dishes.

This will be a super-great option for all those who take care of their figure!”

In fact, it's simple!

So, dietary recipes for the new year. Shall we get started? ☺

So, in our menu:

Herring under a Fur Coat",
"Olivie",
Mimosa salad",
“Greek salad” and three vegetable salads,
hot meat and fish,
and several delicious desserts.

Dietary Herring “under a fur coat” - recipe for PP

We will prepare the following products:

lightly salted herring;
beets;
carrots;
potatoes;
yogurt mayonnaise.

The cooking method is the usual one: prepare the vegetables, grate them, cut the herring into pieces and then arrange everything in layers, spreading it with mayonnaise.

All the ingredients are ordinary, and so is the technology for laying the salad.

The point here is in some subtleties that will help make this delicious dish less calorie and more healthy.

I'll tell you about the secrets of cooking:

1 – The herring should be lightly salted! We don't need a swollen face and excess weight later.

I always buy lightly salted herring, but then I still soak it in milk. In this way, unnecessary salt is removed, and the fish itself becomes much more tender, try it!

For soaking, 3-4 hours are enough.

2 – Beets, carrots and potatoes can be cooked in the usual way, in water. But I suggest you do it differently: steam the vegetables or bake them in foil in the oven.

Such options for preparing vegetables will retain much more vitamins, besides, baked vegetables are much tastier than boiled ones, they will give the salad a special “zest”, a special flavor and a pleasant smell.

The main thing is to carefully wrap the vegetables in foil. Or use an airtight baking bag. It is important for us to maintain juiciness in vegetables!

3 – Do not use store-bought mayonnaise. This is so harmful that it cannot be conveyed! And even if it is positioned as “low-calorie”, “low-fat”, etc... This does not suit us! In any case, the fats that are present in it (even if it’s 30% fat) are harmful, and if they don’t bring us extra pounds, then cellulite certainly will! ...

That’s why we make mayonnaise ourselves, especially since it’s very simple! I have an article on how to make healthy and tasty homemade mayonnaise, read it.

Here I want to offer you another option for dressing herring “under a fur coat”: this is a sauce made from natural yogurt.

Tasty and, at the same time, 100% healthy!

So we need:

Greek yogurt (or regular yogurt, the one without any additives);
garlic;
olive oil;
lemon juice;
mustard, black pepper;
salt.

The proportions depend on your taste and the amount of future sauce required.

Preparation:

Mix all ingredients. It is better to do this in a blender, this way you will get a very tender and homogeneous mayonnaise mass.
My secret: I don't add too much oil in order to reduce the calorie content of the dish. The taste does not suffer from this at all, believe me!
You can omit the garlic at all, or add a little bit of it at all to give just a slight tint, nothing more.
This yogurt sauce makes the dish interesting, spicy, unusual in taste, the salad turns out to be light, and at the same time, satisfying and healthy!

How to make herring under a fur coat even more dietary?

Instead of potatoes, boiled eggs can be used perfectly in this salad. This will reduce the calorie content of the dish, and the taste will not suffer at all!

I even like cooking with eggs instead of potatoes; the salad turns out lighter and you can eat more of it.

If you can’t imagine a herring “under a fur coat” without potatoes, no problem, in this case you can simply reduce the potato layer in size by half and add a layer of eggs.

It will be very interesting, and the calorie content and heaviness of the dish will still decrease!

Diet salad "Olivier" - recipe

Well, what would New Year be without a whole bowl of Olivier, right?

I simply adored this salad since childhood. Do you think that eating this is harmful to your figure and health?

I will try to show you that this traditional delicious salad can easily be turned into a satisfying healthy and vitamin-rich dish!

We will change only some of the ingredients of this dish, replacing them with healthier ones:

Instead of frankly harmful sausage, we use your choice: boiled chicken fillet, boiled young veal. You can steam it or bake it in the oven or baking oven, it will be even better.
Other options instead of sausage: lightly salted salmon, boiled shrimp.
Instead of canned green peas, we buy frozen green peas. Unlike canned peas, where sugar and a bunch of things are added that we don’t even know about, because it’s not indicated on the package, frozen peas are cooked at very high temperatures for a couple of minutes, so they retain almost all their vitamins. By the way, its taste is more real, more natural, more natural. We just defrost the peas first, that’s all.
We replace mayonnaise with yogurt sauce (see above) or.
Instead of pickles, we use fresh cucumbers (we don’t need extra salt). In addition, with fresh cucumbers, the salad turns out lighter, more vitamin-packed, and fresher. And for spiciness you can add capers.
It is better to cut the peel off the cucumbers first, so the salad will be even more tender.
Potatoes can be completely removed from the ingredients. In this case, just add more boiled eggs. The taste will be even more tender! It’s just important not to overcook the eggs, try to keep the whites soft and not “rubbery”, in which case your “Olivier” will be the most tender!

I prepared Olivier without potatoes at all, replacing them with avocado. You know, it turned out simply divine!

Despite the fact that it is quite high in calories, the salad turned out to be lighter than with potatoes.

In general, any “Olivier” will turn out simply gorgeous if you know this “trick”: always add a lot of eggs to this salad. That is, there should always be half as much of them as other ingredients. And then, no matter what you prepare your Olivier from, its taste will be at the highest level!

New Year's dietary jellied meat

The real “king” of the New Year’s table has always been and remains, of course, jellied meat. As a rule, this is a fatty, filling, heavy and rather unhealthy dish, if prepared according to the traditional recipe, from fatty pork.

No problem, we will prepare delicious and healthy jellied meat!

To do this, you just need to replace the pork with chicken, that’s all.

Of course, we will use a whole chicken. I don’t encourage you to go to extremes and cook jellied chicken breasts.

The advantages of such jellied meat:

Cooking poultry takes much less time,
the dish is distinguished by its lightness and better digestibility than pork jellied meat,
you will preserve your figure, heart, blood vessels, liver and overall health by ridding your body of an extra portion of “heavy” cholesterol.

At the end of cooking the chicken, add onions and carrots.

To be sure that the jellied meat will harden well, it is better to add a little gelatin or agar-agar to the broth. The main thing is not to overdo it, otherwise the jellied meat will resemble jelly...

Chicken jellied meat turns out light, transparent, with a minimum amount of fat (which, in fact, is what we need) and has a great taste.

Diet Salad “Mimosa”

This beloved salad from the distant “Soviet past” is traditionally present on all our holiday tables. Only its calorie content is too high... But the situation can be easily corrected.

In order to get a more useful “Mimosa” we need:

Replace canned fish in oil with canned fish in its own juice (we don't need extra fat). Or you can replace canned food with any other lightly salted fish that you like. You can use smoked salmon, and why not? It even has a very original taste.
We already know how to replace harmful store-bought mayonnaise.
My “trick”: I make the mayonnaise liquid enough so that the salad is very, very juicy, soaked and tender.
Potatoes and carrots should be baked in the oven in foil or steamed.
If you are used to preparing Mimosa using butter and cheese, then add very little of these products, just to add some flavor.
But what you don’t regret at all is eggs. Moreover, feel free to replace the layer of boiled potatoes with another layer of boiled egg whites, the taste will be amazingly delicate, friends! After you try Mimosa without potatoes, you will never want to use it again, I’m sure!
Add more finely chopped green onions, or you can even replace the onions with green onions, the dish will sparkle in a completely new way, and you will get not only a delicious “Mimosa”, but also a super-vitamin one!

By the way, this “Mimosa” will be digested much easier and faster, which means that cellulite will not have a single chance to “catch on” to you!

Of course, there should be salads from fresh vegetables on the New Year's festive table; without them, you can’t go anywhere, don’t you agree?

They are beautiful, juicy, tasty, healthy and, due to their coarse fiber, will contribute to our good digestion, so that everything we eat is digested quickly and is not put aside.

Light Greek Salad

Everyone’s favorite, light, tender and healthy “Greek salad” should definitely be on our New Year’s table. This is a great alternative to any “complicated” and heavy snacks.

It is prepared simply and quickly, contains a minimal amount of calories, and looks very festive.

This is our option for you!

Preparing the salad:

fresh tomatoes (it is better to choose large and sweet varieties), cut into cubes or thin slices,
add large sweet bell pepper, cut into thin strips,
one medium onion (preferably red varieties, they are sweeter), cut into half rings,
2 fresh cucumbers (first peel them and cut them into half rings),
add unsalted cheese or feta cheese, cut into cubes,
a jar of pitted olives, cut into slices (drain the liquid first),
lettuce leaves (you can just tear them with your hands).

Dress the salad with a dressing of 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

The calorie content of this dish is so low, and the benefits are so many that you can enjoy it wholeheartedly!

More fresh salad options:

Korean carrots + chicken fillet or meat (you can simply boil it, bake it or grill it) + olive oil or homemade mayonnaise (your choice), salt, spices. You can add an egg. Quick, simple, but at the same time – it’s incredibly satisfying, healthy and tasty!
apples + celery (root) + natural yogurt or thick homemade mayonnaise, salt, spices.
fresh cucumber + radish + greens + lettuce + green onions + olive oil or homemade mayonnaise + salt and spices. You can add a boiled egg for satiety.

Assorted seafood

On the festive New Year's table, we will definitely replace harmful and fatty meat and sausage cuts with assorted seafood.

This will be a wonderful and healthy alternative that will serve as an excellent snack for almost any alcoholic drink.

And we will eat this delicacy with sauce, which we will also prepare ourselves in just two minutes!

Preparation:

Wash the squid carcass and peeled shrimp.
Cut the squid into rings.
Marinate seafood in a marinade of lemon juice, orange juice, salt and pepper.
Leave the seafood in the marinade for at least 40-50 minutes.
Then the prepared seafood can be placed on a baking sheet and baked, covered with foil (to preserve its juiciness), you can place them on a wire rack and also bake in the oven. You can grill them or fry them without oil in a grill pan. Is there a grill? Generally great!

Whatever cooking option you choose, everything will definitely turn out very tasty!

The main rule is to cook for no more than 3-4 minutes (if you fry on each side, then 2 minutes on each side), otherwise the assortment will turn out tough and rubbery.

Sauce: crush a clove of garlic, add olive oil, a little lemon juice, salt, chili pepper, spices. Rub everything thoroughly. The sauce is ready. He is perfect!

Dietary hot dish for the New Year - chicken fillet with mushrooms and cheese

Meat dishes are a traditional element of any holiday table. Chicken fillet is considered one of the most dietary and light.

Preparation of chicken fillet with mushrooms and cheese:

One kilogram of fresh chicken breast should be cut into medium-sized pieces and fried. The ideal option is to fry literally in a drop of olive oil, or in a special non-stick frying pan completely without fat. Even better is to grill the meat.
At the end of cooking, add peeled and cut into large pieces champignons (about half a kilo), fry a little and cover with a lid for a few minutes to simmer. Mushrooms actually cook very quickly; you don’t need to simmer them for a long time.
When the meat becomes soft, add about 100 grams of 10% sour cream, salt, pepper and simmer for another two minutes.
This dish can be served simply by sprinkling grated hard cheese on top (choose low-fat varieties), or you can put everything in a mold, sprinkle cheese on top and bake in the oven for a few minutes until the cheese melts.

My “life hack”: for this dish, I lightly pound the chicken fillet first, and then marinate it in spices, salt and lemon juice. And you can choose the marinade that you like best.

Marinated and pre-beaten fillet has a more delicate taste.

This dish can be prepared from turkey fillet or from young and tender veal (it should also be beaten first, then cut and marinated).

The ideal side dish is boiled or steamed rice or mashed potatoes.

Another hot option is French dietary meat with mushrooms.

As a rule, this dish is prepared from fatty pork; many people add store-bought mayonnaise. Often prepared with potatoes. But we will go the other way and cook it in such a way that it is both tasty and harmless.

We prepare meat in French from chicken or turkey fillet.

Chicken and turkey cook much faster than pork, especially since it is much more dietary and easier on the body than pork. Turkey fillet is considered the most dietary meat; it contains less fat than chicken.

The recipe for our French meat is familiar to everyone: we layer onions, meat, mayonnaise and hard cheese. Bake until beautifully golden brown.

Preparation:

Wash the chicken fillet, cut into portions, beat well, add salt and pepper. You can pre-marinate if you like.
Cut the onion into thin half rings.
Grate the cheese.
In a baking dish or on a baking sheet, which we have greased with oil, we put the onion in the first layer - this way it is deliciously fried and soaked in meat juice during cooking. If you put it on top of the meat, it won't be as tender and juicy.
Next, add the meat.
Lubricate each piece of meat with mayonnaise, which we previously prepared ourselves.
Sprinkle grated hard cheese on top, preferably not too fatty or salty.
Bake at 180-200 degrees for about 40 minutes.

Looks amazing and tastes delicious! The main thing is to beat the pieces of meat well and, of course, cook with love! J

The same dish can be prepared from fish, using fillet for this.

Stuffed carp - a dietary dish for the New Year's table

We will need:

boiled rice,
Champignon mushrooms,
carrots, onions,
carp fish,
salt pepper,
olive oil,
baking foil.

Preparation:

Clean and salt the carp.
Minced meat: finely chop onion, carrots and champignons and fry, combine with pre-boiled rice, add salt, pepper, and mix.
We place our minced meat inside the prepared fish, fasten the belly of the fish and wrap it in foil for baking.
Cook the fish in the oven at 180-200 degrees for about 40 minutes.

When serving, decorate with lemon, herbs and olives and a thin “mesh” of mayonnaise.

Delicious, tender, simply lovely!

In principle, this dish can be prepared not only from carp; use the fish that you love most. I cooked stuffed mackerel, it turned out very good, it just melts in your mouth!

Low-calorie desserts for the New Year

Well, why do we need fatty and heavy cakes and pies?

During the New Year holidays, it is best to give preference to light and sweet dishes with natural fructose.

Grape jelly

Making grape jelly:

Prepare gelatin according to the instructions, add it to grape juice, stir.
Place grapes in a glass container or bowl and fill with the resulting grape liquid.
Let the mixture cool and harden by placing it in the refrigerator.

Serve and enjoy this delicious dessert, prepared completely without sugar! But it’s not needed there, grapes are very sweet in themselves!

Healthy? Yes!

Tasty? Not that word! I love this dessert and make it whenever I want something sweet. After such a dessert, you absolutely don’t want any fatty “Napoleons” according to classic recipes...

Stuffed apples

This is a very satisfying, sweet and very healthy dish with a minimum amount of calories.

Preparing stuffed apples:

Cut off the top of the apples, cut out the middle, then remove as much pulp as possible without touching the bottom. Save the pulp, we will add it to the filling.
Filling: mix low-fat cottage cheese, apple pulp, walnuts, raisins (pre-soak), a little cinnamon, vanilla and a spoonful of honey.
Stuff the prepared apples and wrap each apple in foil.
Bake the apples in the oven at 180 degrees for about 20 minutes.

All this deliciousness is prepared very quickly. It’s delicious in general, and the way it smells is simply incredible! It seems to me that I’m ready to eat these apples just for this amazing smell!

Prunes with walnuts.

I love this delicious dish, and I always prepare it for absolutely any holiday. I just do this in advance so that my dessert is soaked, this is important.

Preparation:

rinse, pour boiling water over it and let it stand in the water for a while so that it gains juiciness.
Then cut each prune on one side, remove the pit and replace it with a walnut kernel - half or quarter (if the nuts are large).
Place the prunes beautifully on a dish and pour “condensed milk” from cashew nuts on top, which we will prepare in one minute by simply grinding cashew nuts, water and honey in a blender (you can use any natural syrup, stevia or dates - take your pick).

Do not skimp on the “condensed milk”; pour it generously, so that our prunes are well soaked.

You say - high in calories? Yes, a lot... But on the other hand, it’s 100% healthy and 1000% delicious!

If you choose between harmful + tasty and healthy + tasty, then I will choose option number two, and the calorie content... God bless it, with this calorie content... This dish is worth it!

Besides, I assure you, friends, you will not eat much of this dessert, it is very filling. So don't worry and enjoy...

Salad with vegetables, cheese and bell pepper

The taste of Chinese cabbage salad, due to the presence of arugula in it, is perhaps a little peculiar, but overall quite pleasant. This recipe will definitely be appreciated by many. Those who are about to try the salad for the first time simply have to get used to its piquant amber and exquisite taste.

When deciding to prepare this unusual salad, you need to take into account the property of arugula to react with metals. For this reason, the salad must be mixed with a wooden spatula, and it is not recommended to apply it with metal utensils. As for chopping, arugula is torn by hand. In addition, greens quickly become soggy, so the salad is prepared immediately before serving.

What you need to make the salad:

fresh arugula - 150-200 g;
large pepper - 1 pc.;
Chinese cabbage - 2-3 leaves;
Fetaxa packaging, which can be successfully replaced with any other cheese;
half a lemon (lime);
1 tbsp. l. mustard, it should not be spicy;
2 or 3 tbsp. spoons of olive oil.

Cooking process:

Take all of the above products that are needed to prepare cabbage salad.
Tear the arugula into small pieces with your hands.

Cut the Chinese cabbage with a knife, removing the hard core, chop and place in a salad bowl.

Wash the bell pepper, remove the seeds, cut out the stalk. Chop the pepper into thin strips and add to the salad.

Cut the cheese into cubes, about 1.5 cm each, and then mix into the salad.

Now you have to prepare the sauce. To do this, pour olive oil into a bowl, squeeze the juice out of the lime, add mustard. It is not forbidden to use lemon, any other vegetable oil and dry mustard, but, in this case, it should be borne in mind that the taste of the salad will be somewhat different than that provided for according to the recipe.

Whisk the sauce and pour it over the salad, then stir so that all components are soaked evenly.
The finished salad is usually placed on flat plates. Before serving, it is recommended to garnish it with slices of lime or lemon and herbs. Serve as a cold appetizer.

The ingredients of the salad can be varied. It is possible to replace some ingredients, as well as add new ones. You can decorate the dish with cherry tomato halves and/or quail egg halves. Mozzarella can be replaced with feta cheese, and Chinese cabbage can be replaced with regular white cabbage.

With such a useful crop as arugula and your own imagination, you can come up with an unlimited number of options for the festive New Year's table in 2019, which is called the Year of the Pig.
