It is impossible to imagine a New Year's table without Olivier salad and "Herring under a fur coat". Many people cook them, despite the cholesterol and other harmfulness indicators.

But you need to take care of your health. And if you don’t want to deny yourself the pleasure, you can make Olivier and “Herring under a fur coat” tastier and healthier.

The main enemy of health in these recipes is mayonnaise. And if we talk specifically about Olivier, it is also weighed down by cooked sausage.

Healthy Olivier

In Olivier, you can replace sausage with boiled meat - chicken, turkey, and immediately before serving on the festive table, season with low-fat sour cream instead of mayonnaise, - nutritionist Elena Butorina told the publication ks-yanao.ru.

"Herring under a fur coat"

Here everything is even simpler. In addition, to reduce the amount of mayonnaise or to refuse it altogether, the expert advises to use lightly salted salmon or trout instead of herring.

And instead of boiled potatoes, you can use avocado, which is healthier.
