We are coming up on a holiday weekend which means BBQing with friends and family...plus a lot of tempting side dishes that aren't always the best choices!

There are definitely some ways you can avoid overeating on the weekends, here are the tips I share with my challengers:
Tip 1: Schedule in your ONE HAPPY MEAL for the weekend and have a game plan in place.
Tip 2: Check out the restaurant menus that you are going to or pre-eat before you go to a party. That way you are never caught in a moment where you have to eat garbage!
Tip 3: Going to a BBQ or pool party? Take a healthy side dish & DO NOT linger near the food table! Go & socialize, talk to people, that is what parties are about anyways, right??! Not sitting in a corner eating alone!

So, here is my perfect side dish, that is even Fix Approved, that you can take with you and enjoy at all of your summer get togethers! Of course, this is only 1 serving, so modify as needed but this was my go to last summer and I can't wait to make it again!
