Losing weight doesn't have to be dull and boring. Nor does it have
to spell the end to your favourite meals. In most cases it is all
about making substitutions with your ingredients, which is achievable
whilst still creating delicious dishes.
Now most of the following tips are pretty straight forward, and
will not make much of a difference to your food preparations, but
some will prove more time consuming than others.
Don't worry. We have thought of everything to make this entire
process easier, and once you have given it a try you'll soon be
losing weight the fun way – eating appetising mouth-watering
meals, at a fraction of the calories.
So let’s get started. We are confident that within these
tips you'll find one to suit you and your weight loss management
plan in no time.
1. Beef – by rinsing it down in hot water (once you have
drained and browned it), you can reduce its fat content by 50% without
affecting its flavour.
2. Substitute chicken broth for butter in all your pasta, rice and
stuffing dishes
3. Forget using oil and replace it with chicken/ beef broth or wine.
Here you'll gain extra flavour without the added fat.
4. Use fruit juice, salad dressing or wine in your marinades instead
of oil. This extra acidic taste will increase the taste whilst reducing
the fat
5. In pasta dishes use soft cheeses such as cottage cheese instead
of full cheese.
6. Swap mozzarella cheese for cheddar cheese. This will cut its
fat and calorie content by half.
7. Bake instead of deep frying. To do this simply add a beaten egg
to your food and put them in a plastic bag. To coat them, roll the
pieces in bread crumbs and add them to a baking tray. By doing so
you will still be able to experience crispy coated meat and food,
whilst reducing the fat that can be added by deep frying.
8. Use skimmed milk instead of whole. This will save you on a whole
8g of fat in one glass
9. In your cakes, muffins and brownies, use yoghurt instead of oil.
This will add nutritional value, whilst cutting down on the fat.
10. Use 2 egg whites instead of 1 whole egg.
And then just keep a record of all your ingredient changes. Above
are just 10 of the most common ones weight loss systems will tell
you to use, but there are many more techniques that you can incorporate
into your meals.
Whether they are ingredient substitutions or a complete recipe
rewrite, it is possible to enjoy your favourite foods without having
to worry about their fat or calorie content.
