- Reduce the amount of fat in the recipe by half (this can often be done without having a major effect on the final product).
- Use nonstick pans and nonstick cooking sprays to cut down on the amount of fat used in cooking.
- When stir-frying, use a small amount of oil. If foods begin to stick, use water, wine, broth, or tomato juice to add moisture rather than adding more oil or other fat.
- When making pies, omit the high-fat pastry crusts or choose a reduced-fat version, such as a graham cracker crust.
- Experiment with herbs, spices, or even lemon to add flavor to low-fat foods.
