As Sviridova noted, almost no New Year's feast is complete without crab salad, including in the film “The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath!”.


“Calorie content is about 200 kcal per 100 g. As with any dish, you must follow the measure, because the salad is seasoned with mayonnaise.

Crab salad is suitable for dietary nutrition if white cabbage is added instead of rice, and mayonnaise is replaced with low-fat sour cream or yogurt.

For cooking, it is desirable to use high-quality crab meat, ”advised the nutritionist of the Grow Food service.

The expert also reminded of the need not to exceed the daily allowance of tangerines, which is four fruits.

“Higher amounts can lead to an allergic reaction.

During the New Year holidays, there are more cases of hospitalizations with an allergy to tangerines, identified for the first time in life, ”she warned.

Besides,

the specialist added that a useful product for those who follow their figure and health is squash caviar, which many Russians associate with a banquet in the film "Ivan Vasilyevich Changes Profession".

“The zucchini dishes contain B vitamins, folic acid, magnesium, copper, zinc.

Due to the abundance of fiber in the composition, such caviar is considered a low-calorie product that is completely absorbed by the body and saturates it perfectly.

From the point of view of nutrition, the benefits of squash caviar for the body are enormous.

The high concentration of vitamins and microelements in the composition makes it a worthy alternative to pharmacy vitamin complexes, ”said the RT interlocutor. 

One of the main dishes of the New Year's table is Olivier salad.

On average, according to a nutritionist, a serving contains about 210 calories.

“The salad is rich in vitamins and protein in terms of the vegetable component, dietary poultry and eggs make the dish satisfying and relatively correct.

Eggs and chicken are the main source of protein, fresh cucumbers replace fiber, pickled cucumbers restore the water-salt balance.

Peas are a vegetable protein, carrots are rich in vitamin A. Also, the classic Olivier contains 170 mg of cholesterol, with a daily norm for a healthy person of 300 mg, ”added the expert. 

If you follow a strict diet, egg dishes will completely replace fatty and heavy foods, the expert explained.

“Eggs replenish protein balance and keep muscles in good shape.

It is necessary for people with high cholesterol to monitor the number of eggs consumed.

You can also remove the yolks and leave only the whites.

For the New Year, you can cook stuffed eggs: with avocado, red fish, caviar, blue cheese, mushrooms, tuna or ham, ”concluded Sviridova.
