Cooking for Better Health
In my quest to lose weight, I’m learning many new things such as not eating before going to bed, reading nutritional labels, among other things as well. One of the things I’m really improving on is the learning to cook a little better for myself and others. Being a big fan of fried food, it’s a big hit to my concepts of cooking. Not that I’m never going to grease up and fry stuff anymore, just a bit less in order to lose weight and keep it off.
The grill is one of my new personal favorites. We just got ourselves a new propane grill, Hank Hill wold be proud, and have been putting it to some good use. It’s been great actually, less prep then I’m used to for must meats and all you have to do is go out turn on the grill and light it up. A little leery about the thought of gas, explosions, and other bad things that can be associated with propane but so far so good.
The one drag is the weather has to be relatively nice in order to use the grill. We have no overhead eve or way of protecting it and ourselves from the weather while cooking so I’ve been on the hunt for some other alternatives as well. To start with I learned how to broil hamburgers in the oven along with other cooking methods from various places on the internet including the one I just linked to. The families a big fan of hamburgers now that we’ve had healthier ways to make them. And using leaner meat in combination to smaller patties just adds to the excitement.
All in all, I’m learning lots and am really excited to see my progress in the coming weeks. Hopefully, I can reach all my goals eventually.
