Here are some great (and simple!) healthy
eating tips - the Watkins way! Reduce coffee intake to 2-3 cups per day. Slowly
work on eliminating cream and sugar from your coffee. Instead,
flavour your coffee with Watkins Cinnamon or one
of our many delicious Pure Extracts, such as
Almond, Anise, Lemon, Mint, Orange or
Peppermint; or try our famous Vanilla
Nut, Cherry, Chocolate, Raspberry, Strawberry or Rum.
You'll want to include Watkins delicious Chai
Latte Tea, too! Use Watkins healthy instead of Grapeseed
Oils butter or margarine whenever you can. Create a
healthy alternative to butter or margarine by blending 1/2
Original Grapeseed Oil with 1/2 butter for a delicious and
healthier spread. Try Garlic and Parsley Grapeseed
Oil and butter for an exciting taste
sensation! Sauté foods with Watkins Liquid
Spice Garlic. You'll be using the healthier Grapeseed Oil
and adding great flavour, too! Rather than using butter on cooked
vegetables, sprinkle with your favourite Watkins herbs such as
Cumin, Basil, Dill, or Onion Powder - remember,
just a light sprinkle is all it takes with Watkins pure
Gourmet Spices and Seasonings! Instead of adding oil or butter to rice,
cook it with a little Watkins Chicken or Onion Soup
Base. Great flavour with less fat! Use Watkins Garlic and Dill,
Bacon and Cheddar, Bacon and Onion, or Cucumber and Dill Dip
Mix with no-fat sour cream or yogurt for an excellent
baked potato topping - tastes great with perogies,
too! For healthy low-fat garlic mashed
potatoes, leave about 1/4 of your potatoes unpeeled (this adds
colour and "character" to your dish); while they are boiling,
sauté fresh minced garlic cloves (or 1 tsp. of Watkins
Garlic Powder) in 2 tbsp. Watkins Garlic and
Parsley Grapeseed Oil. When potatoes are cooked, drain
and then mash in the garlic, skip the butter, use skim milk and
about 3-4 tbsp. of low or no fat cream cheese. Sprinkle generously
with Watkins Black Pepper.
Fabulous! Make your own "home fries". Wash potatoes and slice
into strips. Precook in microwave oven on High for 5 minutes. Toss
with 1 tsp./ 5 ml of Watkins Garlic and Parsley Grapeseed
Oil and bake in 375ºF / 190ºC oven for 15 - 20 minutes.
For added flavour, sprinkle with Watkins Seasoning
