When looking to reduce fat in recipes, consider using healthier alternatives such as olive oil instead of butter, Greek yogurt in place of sour cream, and adding more herbs and spices for flavor. Focus on baking, grilling, or steaming foods instead of frying. Choose lean cuts of meat, skim milk, and low-fat cheeses. Be mindful of portion sizes and practice moderation. Experiment with different cooking methods and ingredients to create delicious, healthier dishes.
