I can't cook but my partner it's getting bored of what I do he's on a diet of cholesterol What can I cook?

Question

he is only eating steamed breast chicken, tuna, and salad, He needs variety

Answer 1

Graham Kerr has a few cookbooks out. The Mini-Max Cook books, EBay, used book store is (my opinion) the best place to start. His books have enough recipes to give him a lot of variety.

I've used and still use his cookbooks. He gives you a break down of everything, fat, cals. etc. He also has a section to show you how to make your favorite recipes more health.

His web site has a few recipes they chance monthly, also your PBS station may have his show on.

Good cooking

Answer 2

There are some good cookbooks and cooking websites that can give you some insight into adding variety and spice to foods to make eating enjoyable again, even when you are on a restricted diet. Try the food network to start.

Answer 3

He can eat most things in moderation. things to avoid are pastries , cheese and shellfish.

a few recipies given to me by the food council- these are all low cholestorol or contain good fats

Mexican Cheese Quesadillas – Serves 4
8 or more whole wheat flour tortillas
2 cups shredded fat-free cheese
fresh salsa made with 1/4 cup chopped onion, 1 jalapeno,
2 ripe tomatoes, cilantro
fat-free sour cream
Prepare salsa with finely chopped jalapenos, tomatoes, white or purple onion and fresh cilantro to taste. Warm each tortilla in a flat pan, flip and add 1/4 cup cheese. Fold tortilla in half, heating each side until cheese melts. Serve with sour cream and salsa on the side.
Poached Salmon with Capers – Serves 4
4—4 oz 1/2 inch thick salmon steaks
1-1/2 cup dry white wine
1-1/2 cup chicken broth
Fresh ground pepper
Juice of 1 lemon
2 Tbsp water
2 tsp cornstarch
2 tsp drained capers
Wash salmon steaks and pat dry.

In a 10-inch skillet bring to boiling wine, broth and pepper; reduce heat. Gently add salmon. Pour lemon juice over fillets. Cover and simmer 8 to 12 minutes (fish will flake easily with a fork when done). Remove fish to warmed serving dish. Bring wine-broth mixture to a boil and reduce to about 3/4 cup (approximately 2 minutes). In a small bowl combine water and cornstarch; stir into broth. Add capers. Boil for an additional 1 minute while stirring to allow sauce to thicken. Pour over salmon and serve immediately. (Excellent when served with a chilled cucumber salad.)
Hearty Chicken Chili – Serves 4
3/4 cup chopped onion
1 lb lean chicken cut into bite-sized pieces
2 cloves minced garlic
28 oz can tomatoes with juice but no salt
15 oz can drained pinto beans or the equivalent in fresh cooked pintos
1/2 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp basil
16 oz can vegetarian no-oil refried pinto beans
Optional: for extra spice use 2 tbsp chili powder or 4 chopped chilies and/or fresh chopped cilantro; fat-free sour cream

Stir chicken and 1/2 cup water in a large saucepan and heat thoroughly. Sauté onion and add to chicken along with remaining ingredients except refried beans. Stir in refried beans and continue heating for about 5 minutes. Serve with baked tortilla chips.

use pulses, fish,vegtables, olive oil(in moderation)
but the best way is to eat well, exercise and lose weight. Also make sure you dont smoke.

your partner is an IT? It's getting bored of what i do? If you can't cook, why are you asking us what you can cook? You make no sense at all.
