- Try to use cooking methods that do not consistently add unnecessary fat to the daily diet. Broil or boil instead of frying foods. Cook in exact portions.
- Make herb bread with slightly stale bread. Butter lightly, sprinkle with onion or garlic salt, celery seed, Parmesan cheese, poppy or sesame seed. Broil until golden brown. 100 calories a slice.
- For cream sauces and sautéing foods, use half the usual amount of fat and substitute skimmed milk for whole milk.
- Fill up on liquids. Water, black coffee or tea, and low-calorie soda all help fill an empty stomach.
- Bouillon makes fine gravy for meats and has practically no calories.
- Go for diet and low fat in grocery items (i.e. Try diet margarine – it has half the calories of butter or margarine).
- Season with herbs and spices instead of butter or margarine. Rosemary, thyme, poultry seasoning and sage all add marvelous flavors to main courses, vegetables and pastas.
- Unbuttered popcorn makes a great snack at 55 calories per cup. Season with onion or garlic salt.
- Nibble on low calorie raw vegetables just before you sit down to eat dinner. Here’s a list you can enjoy: cabbage, cauliflower, celery, carrots, cucumbers, lettuce, mushrooms, green peppers, radishes, tomatoes, zucchini.
