Cutting Calories in Chinese Food
Including Calories in Pasta
Chinese cuisine can be very Diet Friendly. Fresh stir-fried vegetables popped with familiar seasonings and marinades served over a bed of fluffy rice equal larger portions for fewer calories when the food is prepared in a healthy fashion.
Here are a few hot spots when it comes to Chinese cuisine calories:
- Many popular Chinese foods are fried which of course, adds fat and calories to foods that were originally ultra low in calories.
- Butter calories added to rice also pack pounds.
- Too many noodles translates to additional pounds.
- Sauces and marinades are often used to excess, thus piling up more calories.
- Chinese foods tend to be high in sodium content which can contribute to bloating, water retention and swelling.
The solutions for lower calorie Chinese cuisine very simple and take minimal time.
- When using marinades, seasonings and sauces - don't reach for the salt shaker until tasting the food first.
- Opt for foods that don't hit the deep fat fryer.
- Most Chinese sauces contain far less calories than butter or margarine, so consider using these on rice instead.
- Noodles weigh in at about 200 calories per cup - on average.
