Healthy Oils seems to be one of the most difficult Good Health Guideline for people to get in.

This list was posted today by TEPTSEMBER who got it from HOLLYSAGS who doesn't remember where she got it.

From the late awsum34:

Having trouble getting in all your healthy oils? Here are some ideas. You only need to eat 2 tsp of oil per day. (1 teaspoon is a serving), So you can get it in throughout the day. Healthy oils are: olive oil, canola, sunflower, safflower or flaxseed. FYI: Fish oils, Oil capsules, Avocados, peanut butter, nuts, etc, do NOT count towards WW healthy oils requirements. Only the pourable kind count.



1) Cook with it, Alot of recipes start off with oil in the skillet
