• Healthy eating is not as difficult as it is perceived to be. It is not necessarily about eating healthy all of the time but more about making good food choices most of the time.

• Make sure water is boiling before adding in the vegetables. The more of the nutrients will remain in the vegetables the shorter time period the vegetables are in the water. Vitamin C is lost very quickly.
• Boil water a couple of minutes before adding vegetables to release a percentage of the oxygen which will also reduce the amount of nutrients.
• Leave the vegetables in large pieces and the skins on. As the more surface area that is exposed will result in more nutrients being lost.

Stumble It! 

• Score the edges of steaks, chops or ham to keep them from warping when broiling them.
• To reduce the risk of flare-ups, remove as much fat as possible from meats when you are going to broil them.
• It is time to turn meat when you notice small bubbles starting to appear on it.
• Never pierce meat with a fork as it will release the juices.
• For best results, only turn meat once.
• When broiling a steak, rub both sides with oil in order to char both sides trapping all of the juices inside.
