The Hidden Calories in "Healthy" Party Foods

Chicken Skewers with Dipping Sauce

Gensler says that chicken skewers are an excellent source of lean protein. It's the condiment you need to use sparingly. The peanut dips at parties can be excessively oily and very high in fat, and teriyaki or soy sauces are loaded with sodium. She suggests dipping a quarter of the skewer in the sauce (no double-dunking!) or eating the meat plain.
