Discover practical, expert-recommended tips to make your dinners lighter without sacrificing taste.
Lemon Juice
The juice of a lemon is an ideal sauce substitute, adding a fresh zing. It's also perfect for salad dressings.
Herbs
Experiment with herbs for healthy, surprising flavor combos. Cut back on salt and choose spices instead.
Oven Baking
Use the oven more often. It takes longer but is far healthier than frying or microwaving.
Vegetable Stock
Cook vegetables and chicken in vegetable stock instead of oil.
Crispy Crust
For crispy chicken or fish, sprinkle with cornflake crumbs before oven baking. Rusk crumbs work well for oven dishes too.
Mashed Potatoes
In thick soups, swap cream for mashed potatoes.
