The first healthy cooking method that you are going to want to be sure that you are taking advantage of includes grilling meats, poultry and fish. During those times of the year when the weather is great, you will find that there's nothing like taking meats that are already lower in fat and cooking them outdoors on the grill; during the rest of the year or on rainy days, you will find that indoor grills have come a long way. By grilling your meats, you will find that you are able to reduce the fat of the meat and that you're able to use seasonings to add flavor.

Rather than using marinades that use preservatives and artificial flavorings to spice up your meal, it is possible to use fresh herbs to create your own, more natural marinades. Similarly, if you are looking for healthy cooking methods that keep all of the flavor without adding fat or salt, you will be able to take advantage of ready made dry seasoning rubs or to follow recipes that will enable you to make rubs of your own.
