Healthy Holiday Recipe: Sweet Potato and Carrot Latkes
Since many of you are celebrating Hanukkah this week, I wanted to share a twist on my favorite latke recipe. I know oil is a huge part of the tradition, but drenching potatoes in a ton of oil isn't exactly the healthiest thing for you, so check out this recipe. It doesn't involve any deep-frying, and mixes grated carrots with sweet potatoes.

Change It up With Polenta
I know you've seen it in the grocery store, sitting on the shelf in a tube. It's yellow and a little squishy. It intrigued you, but probably not enough to buy it.
Size Does Matter: Portion Sizes Made Easy
I don't know about you, but I get confused with how much of what is what when it comes to serving sizes. I can read the labels just fine, but when it comes to visualizing how much 3 ounces of fish is, I have a hard time doing it. Luckily MealsMatter.org has come up with this handy dandy way to visualize portion sizes:- Woman's fist or baseball - a serving of vegetables or fruit is about the size of your fist
- A rounded handful - about one half cup cooked or raw veggies or cut fruit, a piece of fruit, or ½ cup of cooked rice or pasta - this is a good measure for a snack serving, such as chips or pretzels
- Deck of cards - a serving of meat, fish or poultry or the palm of your hand (don't count your fingers!) - for example, one chicken breast, 1/4 pound hamburger patty or a medium pork chop
- Golf ball or large egg - one quarter cup of dried fruit or nuts
- Tennis ball - about one half cup of ice cream
- Computer mouse - about the size of a small baked potato
- Compact disc - about the size of one serving of pancake or small waffle
- Thumb tip - about one teaspoon of peanut butter
- Six dice - a serving of cheese
- Check book - a serving of fish (approximately 3 oz.)
