Healthy tips for Eating:

 

  • Always grill meat and sausages rather than frying.   Trim off excess fat before cooking
  • Always remove the skin from chicken and don’t eat the crackling on pork!
  • If you do fry, use a little sunflower oil.   With many meats there is no need to add any extra fat.   Cook over a low heat to start with to release the natural fat to fry in.   Drain foods well before serving.
  • Keep a supply of canned fish like tuna or sardines.   Sardines make a very good lunch dish on wholemeal toast or used as a jacket potato filling.
  • Poached fruit like apples, pears, plums and peaches make ideal desserts.   Peel, core and slice.   Poach in a little fruit juice such as apple or orange.   Freeze any left over for another day.
  • Add extra chopped vegetables like celery, carrots, mushrooms or peas to stews and casseroles.   Add mashed swede or carrot to mashed potatoes.
  • Unsalted nuts make a very good snack or add them chopped to homemade stuffing, toppings with cottage cheese, salads and desserts.
  • Stir-fry dishes are quick to make and save on washing up.   Stir-fry thin strips of beef or chicken with lots of colourful vegetables like carrots, leeks, broccoli, courgette, mushrooms, peppers, spring onions and French beans in a large frying pan or wok
  • If you do not feel like cooking, pile salad and a mixture of fruit like banana and apple, on a piece of wholemeal bread.
  • Dried fruits like sultanas, apricots, prunes are light and easy to eat.   Soak some dried prunes over night for a delicious breakfast treat served with plain yoghurt
