Chapter 1: Tips, Tricks, And Secrets

Welcome to the only cookbook you will ever need again. First, you should be told “Congratulations” and I know you think what is that for, and the answer is simple… “Congratulations for choosing the Atkins Diet and for getting this life-saving handbook.

Steps To Get Cooking

First thing is first; you need a pressure cooker. If you have one, you are ready to start cooking. If not, you need to make a trip to your local store and purchase one. There are several models and types of cookers. Try to get one with a digital display cause these models usually have timers, so you can count on the food to be ready when you are. Ask your local store associate for help in picking the perfect model for your household. Please refer to chapter 2 for more information on your pressure cooker.

Pre-Grocery Store List

There are many ideas for making a shopping list. Pick a time and turn on the radio and just relax while you write down your list, or you can make your list while you sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather. You could also plan a family meeting and make a list and let everyone pick a meal, that way everyone feels involved. If you are cooking for only yourself or if you’re the only chef in the family, even better because you get to pick everything. Take 15 minutes or take an hour just take the time to make your list and take the time to relax as you do it because it makes everything easier and a little relaxation in your life is always great for the body, plus it will make you love and enjoy your list-making time.

Lists are so important for a number of reasons. The primary reason is so that you don’t forget any of your ingredients. It is very upsetting when you are cooking and are missing the main ingredient. A list also helps to keep you from buying cookies and chips. If it’s not on the list, don’t take it home. It sounds a lot easier than it really is, but with practice, it will become second nature. It is also easier on the wallet than buying things you don’t need. After a while, you’ll see your health improve, and you can finally fit into your old favorite pair of jeans that you have been hanging on to, with the hopes you can wear them again.

Food Safety

It’s only normal that we would cover some basic food safety guidelines. Make sure all your meat is cooked thoroughly. Having perfectly juicy cooked meat will now be easier than ever since you now have the magic cooking tool that you have never had before, your pressure cooker. Keep your kitchen area clean. Wash hands after handling raw meat. Keep vegetables and meat at proper temperature until you’re ready to use it. And remember to watch those fingers.

Still Enjoy A BBQ

Cook meats in a pressure cooker until almost done then you can always throw it on the grill to give it that taste that only the grill can give it. Spend time with your family and friends and still be able to enjoy life while eating healthy. The Atkins diet is not intended to stop you from having fun at family events but to show you how to enjoy healthy food at all meals during your day and to teach you to enjoy your life as well.

No Time, No Problem

When you cook to make more than what you need and simply freeze in a freezer-safe container. On the days you are not in the mood to cook it’s already ready for you. Just pop it in the microwave and enjoy. You can also put a food-filled container in the refrigerator and take it for lunch the next day - a microwave is always somewhere close in this day and age.

Why A Pressure Cooker

My Personal Story

I struggled with my weight and health because of the food I was putting in my body. I wanted to change but didn’t know how, until I found the Atkins diet. I wish I could tell you how many diets I tried prior to Atkins, but I lost count. Then a friend was telling me about Atkins, so I figured I would give it try, and boy was I glad I did.
