Newly wed Gina Aliotti-Silva checks in with her Tip of the Week.
So you think you are eating healthy ordering an egg white omelet, steamed veggies, chicken breast or oatmeal? If you are eating outside of the country (the USA that is)… you might think twice! I couldn’t help but catch Betty, the omelet maker, dousing my omelet with salt before serving it. Did you know that in Mexico, “steamed veggies” equates to soaked in butter… chicken breasts include rib meat and enough salt for a decade, and oatmeal is made with whole milk?! Hey, not saying you can’t go out of the country and eat healthy but you better be sure to ask for NO SALT and NO BUTTER. I learned the words plain plain plain can do the trick!! FYI– I would always opt to bringing your own oatmeal. There really is no way around the oats made with whole milk! While traveling it can be hard to eat like you do at home but the best thing to do is to be aware of your choices and do the best you can. An egg white omelet with salt is better than a cheese enchilada for breakfast, ehhhh?
HAVE A GREAT DAY
