Tips for Reducing Fat




Source of Recipe


Internet


List of Ingredients




*Apple sauce can be substituted for oil when making cake mixes.
*Use egg whites instead of whole eggs when you can.
*Use only skim milk. If you can't tolerate it, try adding non fat powdered milk to it. It will have a whiter color, and pack more protein, too, without any added fat.
*If you like cream in your coffee, try using non-fat evaporated canned milk. It's great for quiches and other recipes that call for cream or half and half.
*always use Pam instead of oil when sautéing. --sally


1. Steam, boil, or bake vegetables, or stir fry them in a small amount of vegetable oil. (you can also use the canned Swanson's chicken broth to stir
fry in...skim the solid stuff off the top first)

2. Season vegetables with herbs and spices rather than sauces, butter or margarine.

3. Try lemon juice on salad or use a yogurt-based salad dressing.

4. To reduce saturated fat, use tub margarine instead of butter or stick margarine in baked products. Use vegetable oil instead of solid fats when
possible.

5. Try whole-grain flours to enhance flavors when making baked goods with
less fat and fewer cholesterol-containing ingredients.

6. Replace whole milk with skim or low-fat milk in puddings, soups, and baked goods.

7. Substitute plain low-fat yogurt, blender-whipped cottage cheese or
buttermilk in recipes that call for sour cream.

8. Choose lean cuts of meat and trim any visible fat from meat before and after cooking.

9. Roast, bake or broil meat, poultry or fish so that fat drains away as the food cooks.

10. Remove skin from poultry before cooking.

11. Use a nonstick pan for cooking so added fat will be unnecessary; use a vegetable spray for frying.

12. Chill broths from meat or poultry until the fat becomes solid. Spoon off the fat before using the broth.

13. Eat a vegetarian main dish at least once a week.

14. Limit high-fat cheese intake.

15. Use 2 egg whites in place of 1 egg in recipes. --TAMI
