A useful dinner for a slender figure

Proper nutrition - one of the indispensable conditions for the preservation of a slender figure and good health. Unfortunately, many of those who want to lose weight do not adhere to the principles of rational nutrition: they take a hard diet and even starve, instead of developing proper eating habits.

Perhaps the most controversial meal is dinner. In some fashionable diets it is recommended to skip it, but professional nutritionists are not so categorical, believe that dinner should be easy. And they even cite the example of the Japanese, who traditionally serve low-calorie meals for small meals in small portions.

So, following the advice of experts, evening meals should begin 4 hours before bedtime and consist of those products that contain no more than 20% of daily calories for an adult. The daily calorie rate of an adult varies between 2500-4500 thousand calories (depends on the sex, age and lifestyle of a person).

The best for the evening meal are those foods that do not stay long in the stomach, and by the time they go to bed they safely migrate into the intestines. For one or two hours remain in the stomach: sour-milk products, soft-boiled eggs, quality yoghurt (natural), unsweetened fruits. For three or four hours stay in the stomach: lean boiled meat, fish, rice, boiled potatoes, vegetables (not beans), rice, sweet fruit. "Transit" of fatty and fried varieties of meat, fish, beans, as well as their various combinations with porridges, pasta, potatoes, bread takes more than 4 hours.

Thus, a useful dinner can include boiled or baked meat (fish), fresh vegetables, sour-milk products or, alternatively, instead of all this - a fruit mix.

As a light dinner, an omelet with cheese or seafood is perfect, as well as an omelette filled with fresh herbs or tomatoes. In general, there are many recipes for tasty and useful salads, which have a very interesting appearance. For example, the original vinaigrette "Cube-Rubik", seasoned with vegetable oil and having a standard set of ingredients: boiled potatoes, beets, carrots and pickles. Such a salad is very convenient to cook with a special vegetable cutter for dicing cubes. This wonderful device makes it easy to prepare any salad, making it several times more pleasant!

For lovers of meat products for dinner, you can cook a rabbit or chicken in a pot. To do this, garlic stuffed with garlic, cut into several pieces, put on the bottom of the pot, a little salt and pepper. On top, we lay onions rings and carrots, as well as celery for taste. Then add 1-2 spoonfuls of low-fat sour cream and diced tomatoes, then pour the pot on 2/3 with water and put in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes. Aromatic and nourishing, and, most importantly, a dietary dish is ready! Ideally, to him, following the "golden rule" of a meat dinner, they serve any vegetables, except beans and potatoes.

Finally, I want to add about the importance of the mood with which we eat. Let it not be depressed, even if you allowed yourself a small piece of the desired, but harmful, from the point of view of a healthy dinner, product.
