🔥 Happy National Barbecue Day! 🔥

Yes, you can enjoy a barbecue and still keep things healthy! Here are a few dietitian-approved tips to fire up your grill the smart way:

🥩 Lean Meats are a Win
Choose lean cuts like chicken breast, turkey burgers, or even grilled fish. Skip the processed meats and go for fresh, whole proteins.

🌽 Load Up on Veggies
Grilled zucchini, bell peppers, mushrooms, corn, or even pineapple are delicious on the grill and add color, fiber, and nutrients to your plate!

🥗 Balance Your Plate
Pair your protein with healthy starches (like a quinoa salad, bean salad or baked sweet potatoes ) and lots of fresh veggies for a balanced and satisfying meal.

🧂 Watch the Sauces
BBQ sauces can be loaded with sugar and sodium. Try homemade marinades using olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs — your heart will thank you!

💧 Hydrate Smart
Skip the sugary drinks and go for infused water (think cucumber-mint or lemon-strawberry) to stay refreshed without the extra calories.

🎉 Enjoy the Moment
Remember, it’s about enjoying the food and the people around you. Being mindful while eating helps with satisfaction and portion control.
