So, its Easter & I'm dining at my mil's house - definately not sb friendly. She's having spiral ham, lasagna, potato salad, etc.

I was wondering what the lesser of the evil's would be to "enduldge" with? My mil would be highly offended if I didn't eat her food. I was thinking the ham would be the best?

Ham all the way! The other two are giant no-no's.

Good luck!

Lisa is right! Stay away from the lasagna. The ham is ok in moderation; it's the best of the choices, anyway. Be sure to stay away from glazes or chutneys that may be served with it - mustards are ok. Eat plenty of veggies too.

Enjoy and Happy Easter!

Fill at least half your plates with whatever IS south beach friendly (nonstartchy veggies, salad) and then yes of those choices the ham is the best choice.
