Cooking Tips
Food Preparation: Vegetables:
Choose low carb vegetables such as asparagus, Greens (mustard, turnip, spinach, kale, collards), brocolli, cabbage, cauliflower,
celery, cucumber, green beans, mushrooms, green and red peppers, sauerkraut, squash, etc. Cook higher carb veggies
such as beans and peas sparingly. No White potatoes. Learn to read labels. No additives
except salt and water. For seasoning, use first cold pressed olive oil, salt, pepper, and spices.
Do not use prepared seasonings with MSG, taste enhancers, etc. Mix your own. How
to cook: Cook veggies by bringing to a boil, simmer on low heat until cooked to suit your taste.
Mix in olive oil and salt and pepper.
Meats: Choose lean meats such as chicken, turkey, fish, pork and beef. How to cook: A healthy and delicious way to cook meat is using ground flax mixed with salt and
pepper for taste as breading. Beat some eggs, dip meat thoroughly in egg mixture and set aside. Put
flax mixture and seasoning into plastic bag, place selected meat in bag, shake until covered with mixture. Slowly brown
one side in covered pan on low heat using first cold pressed olive oil. When meat turns to a nice golden brown, turn
and brown other side. This should take 45 minutes to an hour for most servings of meat. Meat will be very tender,
moist, and tasty as well as being healtfrul. You can use
plenty of first cold pressed olive oil for frying foods. It's good for you.
