What's the most healthy way to prepare a meal?
assistant
The most healthy way to prepare a meal is to cook with fresh ingredients, use minimal amounts of added fats and oils, and limit the amount of processed and pre-packaged foods. Focus on lean proteins, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, and avoid highly processed ingredients. Use herbs and spices for flavor instead of excessive salt, and opt for low-calorie cooking methods such as steaming, boiling, or baking.
