\"cinco<\/a><\/p>\n

Diets in Review has been covering healthy Cinco de Mayo celebrations for 7 years! This year, rather than create yet another new recipe for good-for-you-guacamole, we’ve put together our hit list for a healthy Cinco de Mayo celebration. Because we’re pretty sure we already nailed it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"breakfast<\/a><\/p>\n

For Breakfast:<\/strong>
\nStart your day with a Fajita Breakfast Burrito<\/a><\/strong>. This spin on the classic gets its flavor from sausage and green peppers with a little cumin, soy sauce, and vinegar for good measure. It tastes great, and the healthy helping of protein, fat, fiber, and carbs will keep you full for hours.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"turkey<\/a><\/p>\n

For Lunch:<\/strong>
\nA turkey burger that’s got salsa mixed in and is topped with cilantro, avocado, and cheese? Mexican Turkey Burgers<\/a><\/strong> are a great blend of favorites from north and south of the border. You’ll get a bit of Mexican flavor\u2014about the right amount to leave you wanting more!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"celebration\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For an Afternoon and Evening Celebration:<\/strong>
\nOnce 5 o’clock hits it’s time to kick off the festivities. If you’re preparing a spread of snacks and apps, start with Ava Wong’s 7-Layer Dip<\/a><\/strong>. This healthy version, which contains ground turkey, black beans, and low-fat yogurt, tastes even better than the original and is a guilt-free way to fill up at the buffet! Of course, you’ll need at least one big bowl of guacamole. We recommend Holy Guacamole<\/a><\/strong>, which gets some of its creaminess from Greek yogurt. For a totally different flavor explosion. Why not make Roasted Tomatillo and Pineapple Salsa<\/a><\/strong>? It is seriously the perfect mix of spicy and sweet. Of course, we can’t forget the cocktails! Our three favorites: Grapefruit and lime mimosas<\/a><\/strong>, because you can’t go wrong with bubbles; Talenti frozen sangria<\/a><\/strong>, which is made from blood orange and raspberry sorbet; of the classic Cinco de Mayo staple, the (skinny) margarita<\/a><\/strong>!<\/p>\n
