Warm weather months have us outdoors, entertaining and loading up on our favorite foods. With all the festive and flavorful options, it can be hard to balance good nutrition with celebrating.
One way to celebrate is knowing that you're doing your body a favor by taking a TUMS Sugar-Free before bed or any time of day! TUMS Sugar-Free has all the extra-strength power of TUMS, without the sugar.
It's easy to make healthier decisions when entertaining and celebrating when you know you have a tool to make bedtime comfortable and that delicious summer meal a great memory, NOT a regret!
Since summertime dinner menus can include sugary desserts and the like. I love adding TUMS Sugar-Free to this equation to limit sugar before bedtime. And if I do over-do it, TUMS Sugar-Free provides fast heartburn relief.
Summer Fun
There are more ways to limit added sugar when gathering with friends and family. Here are my five tips to keep summer entertaining low on sugar, but high on taste!
Beginning with welcome cocktails to healthy appetizers, main course and dessert options, here's how to plan a memorable summer gathering that's full of flavor.
Cheers
Substitute fruit juices and soda with flavored sparkling water for cocktail mixes.
Serve savory appetizers and zesty dressings to whet guests' appetite for the main course. To balance flavor and add sweetness, sprinkle dried fruits like cranberries, currants and raisins to add texture.
Entrees can be hidden sources of sugar with bottled marinades and dressings. When possible, make your own mixes to limit added sugar and amplify flavor with natural ingredients and fresh herbs. For easy and natural flavor, combine minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, olive oil, salt, and pepper for a zesty meat and vegetable marinade.
Serve Something Naturally Sweet
Top dessert with fruit instead of frosting and sprinkles. Artfully arrange naturally sweet and fiber-filled berries on a cake. Serve savory shortcake with berries and homemade whipped cream flavored with vanilla.
For birthdays and special occasions, consider lower sugar cake alternatives such as carrot or moist zucchini cake with rich and low sugar cream cheese frosting. Add printed cake toppers to elevate the occasion.
After Party
When I need post-meal support, I reach for the #1 Pharmacists recommended antacid brand. TUMS Sugar-Free goes to work in seconds so I get a good night's sleep and can start planning my next festive gathering!
It's easy to find the new TUMS Sugar-Free like I did at Amazon or Target, Walgreens, CVS, and Rite Aid. And save all year long on any TUMS product when you click and print a coupon found here.
