 | | 5 / 11 5. Make eating out healthier
"If you eat out, finding tasty and healthier choices may be easier than you think," says Croft-o'Halloran. As a general guide, choose foods that are steamed, poached, grilled, roasted, barbequed, baked, broiled or stir-fried, as these tend to be cooked using lesser oil and fat. Deep-fried, pan-fried and battered food don't have to be off the menu altogether but should be limited as much as possible. For a vegetable boost, she suggests starting with a broth-based vegetable soup or crisp green salad and where possible, aim for half your dinner plate to be veggie-based.
