Auerbach recommends a series of nutritional recommendations for Passover: not to break the diet and not to loose any rein. You can also eat the holiday foods in a controlled manner.
Reduce as much as possible the consumption of matzahs and do not treat them as a necessary addition to the meal. Make sure to drink a lot – at least seven-eight glasses of water or dietary fluids a day. Avoid snacking between meals and especially stay away from Passover sweets. Prefer rosé wine (95 calories per glass) over sweet red wine (170 calories per glass).
Make sure to consume a lot of vegetables, instead of high-energy foods. In a meat meal, it is recommended to avoid fried foods. Prefer low-fat fish (mackerel, salmon, sole, tuna) over high-fat fish (tilapia, Nile princess, trout).
Also, it is recommended to choose a fish that weighs less because it contains less fat percentage, for example: carp weighing up to 300 grams. Avoid adding any carbohydrates to the soup (potatoes, rice, kneidlech, etc.), with the exception of cooked vegetables.
Limit the number of “corruption meals” that take place on the holiday and participate in them only out of necessity. Take advantage of the suitable days for family treatments in the great outdoors or for sports activities.
