Pointers

Bean Chart

  • Trim away all of the visible fat from meats and poultry before cooking.
  • Broil, grill, roast, poach, or boil meat, poultry, or fish instead of frying.
  • Drain off any fat that appears during cooking.
  • Skip or limit the breading on meat, poultry, or fish. Breading adds calories. It will also cause the food to soak up more fat during frying.
  • Prepare beans and peas without added fats.
  • Choose and prepare foods without high fat sauces or gravies.
