by: Kathy Smith

It would be impossible if you only decide to try and eat raw food such as vegetables and fruits, there must still be a variety. There are also a lot of ways in healthy cooking without sacrificing the taste and quality of your meals.

BAKING: This is the primary option in making meals. Simply wrap your food using foil to keep food moist & prevent them from drying-out. The dish will also taste a lot better because of this.

BOILING: This is the secondary option especially when cooking fish, boiling would make an excellent choice. Never use oil or butter for your marinades. When you make sauces, use only water as the base of the sauce. When you boil veggies, cook them inside heat-resistant bags in order to avoid water contact, since water usually removes certain nutrients in veggies during the process of boiling. Another alternative would be to utilize a steamer that holds your food on top of boiling water.

GRILLING is the third option. Just make sure to always wrap your food using foil in order to retain their natural juices and to acquire that juicy taste.

MICROWAVING , the fourth option; it works fine for some dishes. Utilize microwave suitable utensils to be able to maximize your microwave food cooking capabilities. Take advantage of those microwave-proof lid containers. Just simply add 1 tbsp of water to the bottom part of your microwave container and this will do wonders when you’re cooking vegetables.

FRYING would be the last option, since this does not come highly recommended, but with some exceptions you may still use this cooking method in achieving healthy home cooked meals. Simply use a small amount of canola oil or olive oil to achieve that strict diet regimen and to meet your targeted weight in no time.
