Frequently asked questions
What should I cook for a light dinner?
Go for a salad with some protein, a vegetable broth, steamed fish with vegetables, or an omelette. Light, but filling enough.
Is a light meal filling enough?
With a protein added (chicken, fish, eggs, legumes), yes. Light doesn't mean hungry — just without the needless heaviness.
How do I lighten up a favorite dish?
Bake or grill instead of frying, swap cream for yogurt, and add more vegetables. The flavor stays, the heaviness goes.
