Enter for the chance to win digital health tools that sync to your MyFitnessPal account and to have your favorite holiday recipe hacked by Elle, the MyFitnessPal Registered Dietitian.

Everyone loves holiday food, but all of that deliciousness comes at a price: lots of extra calories. The parties, the festive meals, the treats – it’s a two-month long battle for self-control. For those of us focused on healthful eating, the holidays can be hard. Very hard.

But what if you could ask Elle, our very own Registered Dietitian, to take one of your unhealthy holiday favorites and make it more healthful? Elle’s done the same for countless recipes in her own home and now she’s heading into the MyFitnessPal Test Kitchen to remix six of your holiday favorites.

If you live in the U.S., enter the Holiday Recipe Remix by submitting a recipe in one of the six categories by November 4th:

  • Holiday Brunch Dish
  • Holiday Dinner Dish
  • Holiday Dessert
  • Alcoholic Drinks
  • Non-alcoholic Drinks
  • New Year’s Hors d’Oeuvres

The team at MyFitnessPal Headquarters will pick one winning recipe in each category. Then starting mid-November, we’ll post a short weekly video of Elle cooking up her healthy version of each category-winning recipe, which we’ll share with you to inspire your own holiday meal plans!

Five Category Winners will receive:
• An exclusive MyFitnessPal apron ($19.99 value)
• A Withings Smart Body Analyzer scale ($149.95 value)
• Cooking Light cookbooks (up to $29.95 value, each)
And One Overall Grand Prize Winner will receive:
All of the category prizes, plus:
• A Fitbug Orb ($49.95 value)
• A personalized one-week meal plan from Elle herself!
MyFitnessPal members in the US, submit your favorite unhealthily indulgent holiday recipes here by November 4th.
Good luck!
