Your Kitchen may be equipped with various tools such as basic appliances and utensils that are perfect for weight loss. However, a dieter’s needs may involve a little more hardware.
Anyone who has ever been on a diet knows that the proper gear can greatly aid in their weight loss.
Here are five everyday cooking essentials we can use to eat healthier—and lose weight.
1. Panini Press/Griddle is a Great Kitchen Weight Loss Tool
This versatile machine cooks everything from hot sandwiches to grilled veggies, chicken, and fish.
Its non-stick plates—which are designed to drain grease for healthier cooking—make lubing with high-fat butter or margarine unnecessary, not to mention give food that great grilled look and taste.
And because food doesn’t simmer and soak in oils and grease (like in a conventional frying pan), by cooking with it you can easily shave a hundred calories off your meal!
2. Blender
Your conventional or hand-held blender could be your biggest weight-loss ally.
Use it to whip up fruit smoothies in the morning and puree-cooked vegetables for delicious soups and bisques at night.
