Almost every dish we cook uses fat of some sort, even the natural fats in proteins. (Or the boatloads of the stuff in bacon.)

But there are ways to get away from tasteless oils. Let's face it: 1 tablespoon of liquid fat has about 120 calories, no matter if it's a tasteless oil or a flavorful one. So why not always go with flavor?

We're veteran cookbook authors Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough. We've written over three dozen cookbooks, including one called REAL FOOD HAS CURVES that's a step-by-step plan to get the processed food out of your life. (You can find the e-book here.)

We've got tips and tricks to up your fat game so that you're adding more flavor to your meals and getting more satisfaction out of every bite.
