Starch With Plants

If you are starting a low fat diet like the Starch Solution, then you need to know the essentials you will need. Here is a list that I made up! You can substitute something similar if you don’t have a certain item.

Low Fat Diet/Starch Solution Essentials

🍽️ Air Fryer: You don’t need you, but you will want one! You can easily substitute an air fryer with your oven, but an air fryer will cook faster. I use my air fryer mostly to make oil free fries.

🍽️ Instant Pot: You can use your stove top and a pot to substitute but I love to use my instant pot! I use it regular to steam potatoes and make perfect rice. I also use it often to mark quick soup or a bean dish.

🍽️ Veggies: Vegetables are essential on a low fat diet. They make you feel more full and allow you to eat less calories and more volume. You can buy frozen veggies for quick meals.

🍽️ Fruit: Fruit is essential to any way of eating. Fruit sugar is different than table sugar and fruit is packed with fiber as well. Definitely snack on fruit!

🍽️ Healthy Snacks: You can always grab a piece of fruit or make some oat bars or baked oatmeal as a snack.

🍽️ Potatoes: These will help you lose the most weight out of all the starches. Potatoes are about 100 calories and full of water to help you stay full. Try bringing steamed potatoes with you for a snack.

🍽️ Walking: You don’t need high intensity exercise, but a simple walk daily will help you increase oxygen and relieve stress.

🍽️ Sauces: Sauces, seasonings and dressings are essential because sometimes our food needs a little more flavor!
