Stir-Fry from the July/August issue of
@cleaneatingmag #eatyourveggiesFreestyle Cooking
I wanted to reach out and say how much I loved
the July/August issue. What I enjoyed most was
the “No Recipe” feature. While I appreciate your
recipes, I also enjoy throwing dishes together
with whatever I have on hand. I’d love to see
more issues in the future with this type of section.
Keep up the great job and the tantalizing recipes!
I look forward to my upcoming issues.- LISA LABELLE, MASSACHUSETTS

Q/ I’m trying to cut back on sugar. Are there any easy tricks?
A/ Most health experts will tell you that the best way to break up with
sugar is to just quit it (and its sweet relatives) cold turkey. The problem
with this is it sets up feelings of deprivation, which often lead to diving
headfirst into a giant bag of something brightly colored and sticky sweet.
We recommend adding things to your meals (rather than cutting out) to
help tame the sugar beast: First, choose something sour, like pickles or some
turkey slices with mustard. Second, eat more fat and protein, which will help
manage blood sugar levels and keep sugar cravings from arising. Third,
include more “sweet” spices in your cooking, like cinnamon, nutmeg and
vanilla extract. These flavorings help trick your brain into thinking you’re
having something sweet without any sugar actually being consumed.- ERIN MACDONALD AND TIFFANI BACHUS
