Food What are your healthy cooking tips?

I can think of a couple of things I do. When I use Ragu, I add a can of unsalted diced tomatoes so there is extra tomato in the sauce and put a bunch of chopped veggies in. When I have brown rice, I thaw a bag of frozen spinach and add it to the rice so I have spinach rice, instead of plain.

Anyone else have any ideas?

substituting apple sauce for oil in baking... and using egg whites instead of the whole egg (3 egg whites for 2 whole eggs I believe)

my #1 healthy cooking tip would have to be to cook using olive oil always!

Non-fat cooking spray, olive oil, using lots of fresh herbs, garlic, and vegetables...Those are some of my tips. And lots of cooking with fish and chicken!
