Instructions: I try to rely on naturally low fat foods like vegetables, seasonings, lean cuts of meat, pasta, rice, etc.

I understand that some people cant get no or reduced fat versions of certain items, but I try substituting the naturally low fat for the high fat such as broth and or wine for oil.

Cooking things at lower temperatures so less oil is needed.

Substituting yogurt for sour cream.

Using skim milk instead of whole milk.

Eating mushrooms instead of beef or pork.

When I have a steak craving, I bake a potato and eat that with yogurt, cut up grilled steak and broccoli. That sort of thing.

I put A-1 steak sauce on a baked potato to cure my steak cravings! It really does the trick. And I, too, use nonfat plain yogurt in lieu of sour cream. Its good with the steak sauce, too. [ellen@elekta.com]
