“I would assume that it helps, in that I consider myself an extremely healthy person. But I know that’s sort of contradictory to the fact that you go to the South and all vegetables are deep-fried! I really did go through a period when I was very little when I remember realizing that vegetables did not come out of the ground deep-fried.”

“I changed my eating habits in fourth grade because I was a heavy little girl, and I was unhappy. And I remember my mom making dinner for me the first night that I was on this new program, and I burst out crying because the vegetables were green, and I thought she was trying to starve me to death.”

—Ginnifer Goodwin, to CNN on how being from the South affected her learning to live healthy. It’s one thing to know where veggies come from–another to learn how to cook them properly! That’s why we recommend reading Rodale’s 5 Ways to Cook Vegetables without Losing Their Nutrients.

You may have heard of microwaving, sauteing and frying, but do you know how to griddle?

From the article:
“Beets, celery, onions, Swiss chard, and green beans cook particularly well on the griddle. Word of caution: Griddles are often coated in nonstick chemicals that make cooking and cleaning convenient, but may contain toxins linked to cancer. Shop for one without the coating, or use a thick frying pan with no oil.”
