How to Apply This
-
Fill your pantry with healthy fruits, vegetables, legumes, whole grains, spices, herbs, and all kinds of healthy ingredients.
-
Use olive oil for salads and cooking at lower temperatures and avocado oil for high temperatures.
-
Get good kitchenware (check www.pegandiet.com/resources for more info).
-
Cook veggies the proper way.
-
Don’t overcook or undercook meat.
Prepare your meat at 130°F to 135°F for medium-rare and 140°F to 145°F for medium-cooked. Cook poultry or ground meat at 165°F and fish at 145°F.
Saute veggies for about 2 to 5 minutes, steam them (this is the healthiest), or roast your veggies at 425°F for 5 to 10 min. -
Have fun while cooking.
Listen to music while cooking, cook with a friend, family, or love partner, and cook for someone you love. Find your fun way to cook.
