In order to create healthy recipe ideas that are loaded with vitamins, minerals, fiber, protein and low calories, you must use fresh produce. Forget about using pre-packaged foods. I have tried many recipes that use pre-packaged foods, and they just do not deliver the nutrients you are looking for. I love all organic fruits and vegetables, but the problem is that they are often loaded with calories and fat. In order to keep the fat low, limit the amount of salt and sugar in any recipe, and try to use healthy low calorie seasonings such as herbs and spices to flavor your foods.

The best way to be certain that your recipe is truly healthy is to check the nutritional information label before you put food into your mouth. Look for the following information: calories, fat grams, sodium grams, protein grams, fiber grams, calcium grams and potassium grams. Most fruit, vegetable, and salad recipes will provide these nutritional information. By creating healthy recipe ideas for your family you can help them live longer, stay fit and avoid chronic disease.
