l Introduction J ,i Everyone loves a rich, satisfying main course. But cur- rent lifestyles make eating such food regularly a trying and fattening regime. Fear not! Satisfaction and taste have not disappeared forever. Hope lurks in these very pages. You can eat well and be satisfied without fat, heavy sauces and gobs of cream and butter. Of course, part of the key to successful low-fat main courses is in the choice of ingredients. Fish, chicken and vegetables make the most logical starting point. Beef, lamb and veal are all high ill cholesterol and fat and, though an occassional treat, should be avoided as a regular means of sustenance. Likewise, cream, butter, cheese, except in the smallest amounts, can spell disaster for any diet. Pork, as bred these days, is almost as low in fat as chicken, and can be turned into a wide variety of tempting dishes, especially when seasoned with brio and cooked in a manner appropriate for the cut of meat. Most main course meat dishes should allow between 1/4 to 1/2 pound of meat per person, the more bone, the greater amount. And remember, a great deal can be done to fill people up with grains, vegetables, complex carbohy- drates and accompaniments. So eat hearty, but carefully. i:
