The holiday season has finally arrived! It’s time to find your favorite family recipes and start cooking! While many of our favorite dishes help us to remember and celebrate special times, choosing healthier options can be a challenge. Let MyPlate help you find solutions with “MyPlate Holiday Makeovers.” During our eight-week series, you’ll find ways to celebrate the season with great new resources such as recipes, a new infographic, and tips for preparing your holiday feast.

To keep you engaged throughout the holiday season, the MyPlate Facebook page will feature “Makeover Mondays.”  Every Monday, from today through January 6, the MyPlate Team will offer their personal recipe makeovers and ideas to help you live healthier throughout the New Year. You can also use the new SuperTracker feature, My Recipe, to build, save, and analyze your favorite recipes.  Follow @MyPlate on Twitter, and use #MyPlate to share your favorite healthy holiday tips or ideas – let us know what works for you.

Visit ChooseMyPlate.gov often to find new holiday ideas and resources to help you to keep good health in mind.

Happy, Healthy Holidays!
