How to Lose Weight Without Dieting & Get Healthier in the Process
Healthy Tips for Bananas
Healthy Tip #1 - For a sensational low calorie dessert, slice up 3 bananas, add them to a pan sprayed with a bit of cooking spray. Add 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, just a dash of nutmeg and 1/4 cup of brown sugar. Cook until warm. If bananas appear to start sticking, add 1/8 cup of water. Transfer to dessert dishes and sprinkle with a teaspoon of chopped pecans or walnuts.
Healthy Tip #2 - Add mashed bananas to your next batch of homemade waffle or pancake batter.
Healthy Tip #3 - For quick banana bread that is both delicious and healthy - as well as low in fat, try this tasty recipe: Recipe for Low Calorie Banana Bread.
Healthy Tip #4 - Create a healthier banana split by using frozen whipped topping rather than ice cream. One-half cup of regular vanilla ice cream contains from 140 to 220 calories, depending upon the recipe and brand. Light whipped topping contains 15 calories per 2 Tablespoons - less than half the amount of calories as regular vanilla ice cream. And when only real ice cream will do, taking just a second to measure out the ice cream before transferring it to the serving bowl can add up to sensational benefits where your health and weight are concerned.
Healthy Tip #5 - Peter Pan makes a yummy whipped peanut butter that I am head over heels in love with. While standard peanut butter contains about 210 calories per serving, Peter Pan's whipped peanut butter contains a scant 140 calories. I love to mix 1/2 a mashed banana with a spoon of the whipped peanut butter, then spread it onto a fresh slice of whole grain bread. A few dried cranberries or golden raisins in the mix is also divine.
