Hello all,
I hope you all had a warm and enjoyable Thanksgiving. I ate so many Brussels sprouts, I lost count! And my mom really outdid herself on the turkey this year, yum! We had a great time at a bar mitzvah in Philiadelphia on Saturday, and ended the weekend with a combination of Broadway shows, The Muppet Movie, and some (dare I say) Chinese takeout. In this week's newsletter, you'll find two delicious recipes--one for Salmon, and one for Strawberry Spinach Salad. You'll also read one mom's perspective about her daughter's request to become vegetarian. Finally, I hope you'll be inspired to join me in my #DoItInDecember fitness and activity challenge. (And for those of you interested, I'm happy to report I've made it through 36 days without even a sip of Diet Coke and started to drink unsweetened iced tea instead.)
Until next time,
Elisa

Salmon Patties & Strawberry Spinach Salad
In my ZIED GUIDE blog, you'll find delicious recipes for heart-healthy Salmon Patties and a nutrient-rich, flavorful Strawberry Spinach Salad from the 5 Ingredients for Healthy Living Cookbook. Raising a Vegetarian Over the Holidays Has your child declared "No meat for me!" or that he or she will no longer have any animal products? Read one mom's story about her 7 year old who asked to be a vegetarian (with a few of my tips) on galtime.com.

Will You Do It in December?
We're all so busy this time of year! Between running errands, buying (or making) holiday gifts, cooking, cleaning and getting ready for some much-needed time off, many of us burn the candle at both ends. Fitting in our usual fitness routines, or making a first (or twentieth) attempt to once and for all get fit is certainly a challenge, and something many of us put off until the New Year begins. But why put off until tomorrow what you can do today? Read more on The ZIED GUIDE blog.
