This year we thought we would share some of our best cooking tips with you!

Substitute light or low-fat spreads for butter when baking or use half butter, half spread to get a rich flavor with less animal fat. Use yogurt or buttermilk in baked goods, both low in fat and calories.

Smetana (or smatana) is a soured cream originally from Russia and Eastern Europe and though not as low fat as yogurt, has less fat than traditional soured cream or crème fraiche. It can be added to sauces at the end of cooking time.
