[...] cheese and lemon zest. I remembered Sabrina’s advice from her guest post on The Fitnessista here and presented it with some lemon slices. I love asparagus already but I honestly think I enjoyed [...]

My favorite dish to serve is bouillabaisse or another spicy seafood stew with some garlic toasts. It tastes great in Summer or Winter. I usually serve a salad with oranges, olives and bitter greens first. Dessert is almost always fruit compote served with cookies and ice cream, that way guests can have what they want without feeling like decadent food is being shoved at them. I know I like the choice.

Sometimes I will make one indulgent thing I know that both the healthy eaters and the non healthy eaters will enjoy, like Ina Garten’s spinach gratin for example!

I love to entertain. Sadly though, most of the people I host aren’t really into healthy choices. I try to always have a healthy option though. The most popluar things that I make are buffalo chicken dip and cupcakes. I like this sample menu though. Thanks for sharing it!

Such great tips! I always have this problem when I think of hosting something. I want to cook healthy because that’s what I like, but I want to please everyone who comes over, as well. Really though, why can’t I do both? So far, I feel like most of what I’ve hosted are small parties with just appetizers and drinks, so I’m usually able to have a good combo of both healthy and indulgent…but I love the idea of making sure the quality is great. Thanks Sabrina!

Great tips for having a healthy dinner party. I love having people over and making healthy dishes and spreads. I think we should all have a big dinner party together

I love to have lots of appetizers so if the meal is running a little behind, no one notices!
