PASTA DISHES, PREPARED WITH SEMOLINA PASTA
PICKLES, PEPPERS, AND RELISH
Pickles, peppers, and relishes are all okay as long as they are not the sweetened versions.
PIZZA
If pizza is among your favorite treats, have a thin-crust pizza with tomato sauce, reduced-fat cheese, and/or vegetables. Thick-crust pizzas, as well as those made on French bread, are trouble. Also steer clear of high saturated fat toppings, such as mixed cheeses, pepperoni, and sausage.

POULTRY
When it comes to chicken, bake, broil, grill, roast, or sauté, but do not fry. Select the chicken breast, which has far less saturated fat than the leg, thigh, and wing, and remove the skin before eating. Duck and goose are higher in saturated fat than chicken and should not be eaten often.
