When is paula deen on dr oz

The Georgia native never went a day without a glass of sweet tea. In her sweet tea obsession alone she was consuming around one cup of sugar each day. That is well above the American Heart Association's recommended amount. They say that women shouldn't consume more than 24 grams of sugar per day. Trying to eliminate empty calories, Deen traded in her sweet tea for unsweetened tea and it turns out she didn't think it was all that bad.

She's specifically fond of flavors like peach, lemon and passion fruit. When planning her meals, Paula Deen doesn't forget to add protein to her plate. One of her favorite cuts of meat is country style pork backbone.

As a true southerner, Deen still shops for her old fashioned meat at the General Store. Only now when she brings it home she makes sure her meat doesn't take up more space on her plate than her vegetables do.

Her new rule of thumb is serving up only a fistful of meat per meal. In the past for Deen , that serving of meat may have consisted of chicken fried steak. Now, Deen says she'll either sear her steak "in a skillet or put it on the grill.

In place of butter for added flavor the well-beloved chef has been known to squeeze fresh juices of oranges and limes to create a marinade. With all the recipes she has under her belt across more than a dozen of her cookbooks Deen has plenty of ways to spice up her meat to enjoy daily. Fried foods may be associated with the south, but Paula Deen promises southerners care about more than just frying their food. They also care where it comes from.

One vegetable Deen loves is rutabaga. A rutabaga is a root vegetable that may not be very pleasing to the eye, but can truly enhance the flavor of your dish. Since Deen knows her stuff when it comes to adding flavor in cooking, rutabaga may need to be an addition to your next shopping list. For Deen, fresh food doesn't have to be complicated. With adding more vegetables to her diet, the TV personality has found ways to add flavor without making the recipe complicated.

Deen's salads for example are compiled with only a few ingredients such as tomatoes and blue cheese. She then tops the salad off with black pepper and a homemade and pretty healthy! A pretty easy combination to enjoy daily.

When it comes to giving up foods, Paula Deen is fine with added sugars and sticks of butter, but there are some things that her new eating habits can't get rid of and that's real food.

Open up Deen's fridge and you won't find any diet food alternatives to the real thing. This one is a bit murky though. Just because Deen won't eat it herself doesn't mean she won't cook with it, apparently. Deen is using her diagnosis for the better by taking her traditional recipes and lightening the ingredients so they're better on the waist line. Food lovers will now find that lighter versions of popular recipes like Deen's Chicken Divan or salmon burgers do include light mayonnaise as well as other low-fat and nonfat ingredients.

Perhaps light mayonnaise and other diet foods pass the test as long as Deen can't actually taste them. Diet foods may not be at the top of Paula Deen's list, but substitutions just might. There is one food substitute in particular that Deen stands behind and that is Greek yogurt.

Worst habit: Paula was embarrassed and ashamed to admit it, but her worst habit was potatoes and cigarettes. This is when Dr Oz found out she smoked. Paula admitted to smoking a pack and a half for 50 years. Smoking was her only vice. Your email address will not be published.
