Low Calorie Cooking Tips

Secret Low Calorie Cooking Tips Revealed 

1. Use fat-free vegetable broth instead of regular chicken or beef broth. 
Freeze the broth in ice cube trays and whenever you need to add moisture to a dish, add a cube of broth instead of extra oil. 

2. Remove skin and fat from all meats before cooking and use a marinade to keep meat tender. 

3. Replace helf the fat with pureed fruit in your favorite baking recipes. 
Applesauce or fresh mango puree are good examples. 
One-quarter cup of puree can also be substituted for one egg. 

4. Use your charcoal grill year-round. A cast iron grill pan is also a good choice. Grilling is fast, easy and low-fat. Smoking provides fat-free seasoning as well! 

5. Use high quality ingredients like extra virgin olive oils, good vinegars, superior cheeses. You will use less but get more flavor. 

6. Use chopped fresh herbs freely. You will need less salt which means less bloating! 

7. Garnish almost any dish with fruit or vegetable salsa for an intense burst of fat-free flavor. 

8. Skip the cream, milk and butter in pureed soups. To get the cremy consistency without the fat, blend in 1 large boiled potato. The starch in the potato will give a richer consistency and won't affect the flavor of the final dish.
