| December 5, 2014

COSHOCTON – The Coshocton Hospital Registered Dietitians know the secrets to holiday food preparation that won’t get in the way of your weight loss goals. They’ll share recipe secrets and delicious food options at a special Healthy Holiday program from 4 to 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 11, at the Coshocton Hospital Grand Central Station Meeting Room.

The event will feature a cooking demonstration of holiday favorites made with delicious, healthy changes, and guests will be able to sample each recipe. Following the cooking demonstration, Krista Mathews, RDN, LD, will discuss ingredient replacement suggestions and other tips for those managing diabetes or watching your weight to help avoid the temptations of excessive holiday snacking.

“Making a few substitutions in your recipes can make a big difference in how much sugar and fat you consume over the holidays,” said Clinical Dietitian Krista Mathews. “But you may not know what substitutions give you the biggest benefit. At our holiday program, you can sample the dishes we’ll prepare and see for yourself that cutting calories can be delicious.”

The cost for the program is $5, payable at the door. Registration is required as seating is limited. You can register online at www.ccmh.com; or by calling 623-4249.
