Five Low Fat Holiday Party Appetizers by Renee Kennedy

Holiday foods are about different kinds of flavors that satisfy

your taste buds. Here are some food picks - healthy,

low fat, all easy to make:

1. Marmalade, apple butter, or whole fruit preserves served on

low fat crackers with slices of gourmet cheese.

(Be sure to read the back of the packages of cheese and

crackers, look for low-fat options.)

2. Pears and low fat cheddar cheese. The sweet, tang of the

fruit with the sharp taste of the cheese is a mixture that will

please any palette. When serving, allow guests to slice

their own fruit -- this will keep the fruit from turning brown.

3. Ham and turkey are both low fat meats if you choose

lean varieties. Here are a few special ways to serve them

depending on the level of sophistication of your guests:

- For kids: serve the meat in bite-sized chunks, also offer

grapes and chunks of low fat cheese... let your guests pick

up these healthy nuggets with toothpicks.

- For the older crowd: Buy deli slices of ham, turkey, and

cheese. Roll them up, serve with a choice of small dinner

rolls (onion rolls, plain, egg, whole wheat...).

Add a selection of fancy mustard or any unique fat-free
