Hey All!
I know it’s that time of year where we love to eat all our holiday favorite tasty treats. Let’s not kid ourselves, It’s the time of year where we over eat and gain a few pounds because we can’t stop eating those tasty empanadas or snowman sugar cookies. This year I’ve tried to curb that pattern and develop some healthier eating habits during the holidays. One thing I now do often is check my oil labels. Knowing what your cooking with this holiday season is a great way to ensure you’re cooking as healthy as you’d like.
Though you may not realize it, thereās a good chance soybean oil is part of your cooking routine. In fact, soybean oil accounts for approximately 58% of vegetable oil used in homes and commercial cooking! Just check the ingredients label to be sure. Soybean oil is one of the most versatile ingredients in my pantry. The oil has a neutral flavor that helps me create some of my favorite traditional meals without compromising taste.
Soybean Oil is just one way I’m eating healthier this holiday season. Another thing I’m doing is practicing portion control and self control. I’ve trained myself to think I’ve tasted this all before. I know what this all tastes like as I’ve had it all a million times every year. There is no reason for me to eat ten cookies. It’s just a rational way of thinking about it.
So before you sneak and eat one of those cookies or fry up one more of those delish empanadas aka pastelillos I showed you how to make, Make sure you’re cooking with Soybean Oil and practice some restraint this holiday season!
