Dietary nutrition in most cases is perceived by people as a kind of sad forced fate. But in fact, not everything is as bad as it seems from the outside: a few weeks of proper nutrition - and people get used to new foods. Products that previously seemed tasteless without fat, seasonings and other additives begin to show their own taste. You can easily get used to tea without sugar, mashed potatoes instead of french fries and boiled chicken instead of chicken nuggets.
By the way, eating properly is not only beneficial, but also easy, because diet meals are usually much easier to prepare. An example of this is our steamed diet pumpkin recipe today.
Ingredients:
- fresh ripe pumpkin - 500 g;
- granulated sugar to taste;
- water - about 1 liter.
