With Americas growing obesity epidemic spreading to our children, many people are taking on the fight against weight gain by eating out less and cooking healthy family recipes at home. Cooking family recipes at home not only can help people lose weight, cooking at home can save families a whole lot of money too. If your family is currently addicted to junk and fast food, you may find it difficult to make the leap to healthful whole foods. But with a little kitchen magic and a few simple tricks you can get your family on the right path.

When adapting food and family recipes for a healthier diet, do not force kids to change their diet suddenly or eat foods they do not like. By making slow adaptations you will be on your way to living a healthier lifestyle, not just committing to a short term diet doomed to fail. Try making healthy versions of food they already enjoy. Adapt old family recipes for fried chicken by preparing it in the oven or substitute beef in hamburgers and meatloaf for low fat alternatives like chicken or turkey.

Another healthy step to take can be eliminating processed sweets and instead switch to occasional treats made at home with healthy ingredients. While many people may think that being healthy will mean swearing off desserts forever, but for many people that is simply not a livable reality. Instead of swearing off dessert all together, adapt family recipes to include healthy ingredients. I bet you did not know that you can hide vegetables in many dessert dishes.

And when trying out a new lifestyle be open to change and trying new things. There may be many vegetables and types of cuisine you may have never tried before. Be open minded and you can greatly improve your health and expand your culinary prospects.
