And the fritters? You will ask yourself; Well, we tell you that unfortunately there is no cool recipe that really provides fewer calories, that’s why we interviewed the nutritionist Nancy Melo, who gave us the following advice: «Use low-fat cheese, only the white of the eggs and after frying the fritters pass them through a napkin to remove excess fat; if you need to heat them, do it in the oven.”
The nutritionist recommends that “to take care of your weight at these parties there are some tricks, such as: if you attend a novena you should eat light during the day; once there, control the portions of carbohydrates (flour and sugar) trying not to consume several in the same meal; In addition, it is not advisable to repeat, or consume sauces in excess, drink water instead of soda, And lots of dancing to burn calories!”
