Ditch: Beef/ pork hot dogs

Dish Up: Grilled Chicken

What you'll save:A 1.8 oz beef hot dog has 165 calories and nearly 15g of fat (and that's without the bun and condiments). A 4oz serving of skinless chicken breast has only 140 calories and negligible fat. 

Sides

Ditch: Mayonnaise-soaked salads (pasta,potato,etc.)

Dish up: Grilled veggie kabobs 

What you'll save: One cup of potato salad will set you back 350 calories and 20g of fat. On the other hand, a grilled veggie kabob comes in at just over 100 calories and 4g of fat.

Dips

Ditch: Onion

Dish up: Guacamole 

What you'll save: While there isn't a big difference in calories or overall fat, the majority of the fat in guacamole is monounsaturated, which may help lower diabetes and cardiovascular disease risk. What's more, guacamole is higher in fiber than onion dip and has almost no cholesterol, making it a far healthier option. The best dippers for your guac? Fresh crudites or our Spicy Nacho Protein Chips. At just 100 calories and 11 grams of protein, they have a zesty kick that pairs perfectly with guacamole. 

Sips

 

Ditch: Cocktails

Dish up: Unsweetened iced green tea

What you'll save: An 8oz margarita packs 455 calories and a daiquiri-flavored wine cooler can have over 40g of sugar. Unsweetended green tea is a zero-calorie drink with an added bonus of antioxidants.

Dessert

Ditch: S'mores

Dish up: S'mores Pudding

What you'll save: You'll bank 250 calories of fat while still indulging in a classic taste of summer!
