Dips to dodge
Picked up this little ditty from Fitness Magazine at the gym the other day: "Prevent party pig-out." Among the other features about saying no or "not so much" at holiday parties, they list four dips often seen at parties (not to be confused with your Dippy uncle): Smoked salmon with cream cheese; spinach; hummus; and salsa.
Guess which two have more calories, and higher in sodium? Yep, the spinach one and the salmon.
By contrast, hummus has 54 calories and 2.6g of fat; salsa has 9 calories and .1 grams of fat.
Click here for a 7-layer chip dip. Mmmmmm tasty.
