Healthy Cooking Oils

Healthy Cooking Oils

When it comes to oils on the Trim Healthy Mama Eating Plan, remember this:
Not all oils are made equal!

It is vitally important that you get your oils right because there's a whole list of oils that can really disrupt your well being.  
First of all, it’s important to keep cooking oil smoke points in mind based on which type of cooking method you’re planning to use. Cooking oils with low smoke points can oxidize and break down under high heat, leading to the formation of harmful, disease-causing free radicals.
Therefore, when your recipe calls for frying, sautéing or roasting, it’s best to select a cooking oil with a high smoke point.
Meanwhile, healthy cooking oils with low smoke points can be used to top off cooked dishes or amp up the flavor of dips, spreads and dressings instead.


An easy way to remember this is to know which oils are good for cooking (in other words, heating up) and which are best used cold.  For cooking purposes, you don't want to use an unsaturated oil, but rather one that is naturally saturated. The natural saturation of the fats protects the oil from going rancid. Oils like Coconut Oil, Butter, and Red Palm Oil are good examples. Other on-plan oils like Avocado, Grape seed, Olive, Sesame, and Sunflower oil are best used when cold.

When choosing  an on-plan snack,  this needs to  be taken into consideration. An oil might  be on-plan, but should not be heated up. Remember that BAKED is always better than FRIED, because then your chip does not get submerged into an oil. Here is a handy reference  for which chips are on-plan:
Though this might seem like a small, unimportant detail, it does in fact make a big difference. Often times you may be eating on-plan but not seeing  results. If you tighten up in the smaller details, you may just start to see much better results!

Did this help you? I do hope you will start seeing the results you are after!

Learn how to take care of your body now so you can bless your future!


This is my year!   I feel amazing!  I'm thinking about  my 50th that comes in the beginning of 2025, so I am looking for all the ways to age well and prevent disease.  I finished the prep phase of detox since my silver fillings were removed and moved into the body phase.  This is so exciting to me!  I love to learn everything there is about health and how I can bless and nourish my body. 

The best news I have is I now understand how a women can be pregnant and not know it.   You hear those stories of someone being months along and not know it.   I couldn’t imagine that until this year.  

I went to the doctor for the first time in decades back in December 2023 to have my bloodwork done for the first time.  My results came back and were confirmed by a doctor and my herbalist who were both blown away I didn’t know and congratulated me.   
What didn't I know???

If you don't know how to get your healthy foods from the grocery store and use them, I suggest starting your Firm Foundation now!
This course cements the Trim Healthy lifestyle for you. 
Small habits lead to big impact!
I feel like I'm a professional habit maker!  I've weeded out bad habits and found better ones to replace them with. The new ways, after repetition, have become a part of me, and they serve me so much better.  These habits worked because I'm through menopause without the issues.
You're invited to learn Trim Healthy ways in my Firm Foundation course and you'll receive the reading of "Atomic Habits," in my Marco Polo chat, while learning how to eat to serve your body well.  This Marco Polo Chat with the book reading will be offered FREE to anyone who signs up for one of my lifetime access courses in July.  We'll start July 8th.
Fuel Pull Playground will start August 1st and Protein Power will start September 1st!  I am SO excited about both of these and I would love to have you join me in the future for these two!



Are you ready to start your Firm Foundation?

Sensational Smoothies: Trim Healthy Superfood Fast Food Nutritious Smoothie FP, E or S style
Let's talk SMOOTHIES!

A smoothie is a great way to add all those great superfoods to your diet.
I love a good protein smoothie for quick nourishment, plus you can make them S, E, FP or XO to suit your needs.

Here are my favorite smoothie add ons:


Charity's Superfood Smoothie Tutorial


Watch your waistline and how you feel change with Superfood smoothies!  You'll never get bored and always have a fast food option!

Keys to success:
Protein-rich (at least 20 grams)
Fat source to help nutrients get into your body (5 grams for FP and E or more for S)
Superfoods to help increase immunity and health
Veggie full to provide satiety and fiber.
 (I put my greens in my smoothie, and then love to add raw veggies on the side with sea salt to chew on because this helps me feel more full due to the action of eating my food)
What if I'm dairy free?
Use a nut milk, egg white powder, THM optimized plant protein or collagen and essentials for protein.These egg whites make a great texture for my smoothies.

Let's make some smoothies!

Try THM's Trim Healthy Fuel Pull Kefir, Chia Okra, Baobab, Greens, Ashwagandha, and Maca Superfood Smoothie:

If you're interested in the beet powder, you can find it linked on this page:

Here's some more smoothie ideas:

You can find more great options in the smoothie section of all the Trim Healthy Mama books.

Here are my favorite smoothies found in the THM books:
Chocolate-Covered Cherry Shake, E, THT, page 471
Whipped Pina Colada Shake, THT, E, page 477


If you need to make a meal in a hurry, make a quick smoothie packed with nutrients that will keep you full for up to 3 hours!

If you also need grocery store or gas station fast food, I have created a drive-thru Sue guide to help you find all the store-bought goodies!


Will you try a smoothie today?
I can't wait to hear what you think.

Blessings,
