Heart Healthy Monday

Heart Healthy website:  How about a Heart Healthy Refrigerator.  This is a fun site with heart healthy food tips.  There is also a children's page with games.

Heart Healthy Monday Tip: Moderation - Make changes in your diet gradually and don't deprive yourself of the things you really enjoy.  Try portion control with meals and snacks.  Never eat snacks out of the bag or box.  Put them in a small bowl. 

Heart Healthy Monday Recipe

Fruit Salad with Dressing

Variety of fruit - (for this I prefer soft fruits)
Star Fruit
blueberries
mango
banana
Raspberries
Kiwi

Peel and cut into small pieces.  Now at this point I could sit down and eat a fruit salad as is, but if you would like something a little more add this fruit dressing:

3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup vanilla or plain yogurt
2 tablespoons honey
Mix together and drizzle over fruit.
