A Low Fat Halloween
Halloween is pretty scary if you're trying to eat low fat. Tempted by all sorts of sweet, sugary, fat-filled treats, it's hard to stay on track with any kind of healthy eating plan. If you're trying to avoid temptation, or simply trying to control how much fat and sugar your kids consume, I have some ideas for happy yet healthier Halloween.

Chunky Applesauce
Homemade applesauce is hard to beat. You can adjust the sweetness and texture, and decide if you want to add a little spice. Perfect as a topping for waffles and pancakes, or as an accompaniment to pork, there's always a reason to have applesauce on hand.

Celebrate a Low Fat Thanksgiving
Don't despair: it's perfectly possible to eat low fat over Thanksgiving without much sacrifice. You can still enjoy turkey, potatoes, pumpkin pie, and more, without abandoning your low fat lifestyle.

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
Roasted pumpkin seeds are the perfect low saturated fat snack for Halloween. These roasted pumpkin seeds are sweetened with a sprinkling of brown sugar and cinnamon.

Thanksgiving Turkey
Eating a low fat diet should not deprive you of enjoying a Thanksgiving turkey. The breast meat is naturally low in fat, and the darker meat can be enjoyed, too. With just a small amount of oil, lemon and plenty of fresh herbs, you can roast a turkey that is fragrant and succulent.
