However, if you marinate your chicken breast with herbs and spices, the flavor will dramatically change and be a lot more enjoyable.
There has been an impression for some time that nutritious food is tasteless, bland, and off-putting. We all know a salad is healthier for us than a hamburger, but because it has more flavor, we go for the burger, or so goes the idea, anyway. Yet there is no excuse that this has to be the case. Any meal will become more exciting with the inclusion of a touch of seasoning.
People will still be quick to find out that even if a grilled chicken breast may contain fewer calories from a fried chicken outlet than a family bucket, it doesn't taste as nice. And the truth of the matter, though this is a matter of belief, is that opinions matter. However, if you marinate your chicken breast with herbs and spices, the flavor will dramatically change and be a lot more enjoyable.
Although tuna is far from tasteless, you can get bored of eating tuna salad in your sandwiches. But when you make the tuna mix, if you add a little flavor, you can find that there are a lot of different flavors that add very little if anything, to the calories. Paprika, garlic, cayenne... the list continues. The inclusion of some sliced jalapenos, if you have the appetite for them will make things much more fun. And the bottles of sauce on the shelf of the store go beyond steak sauce and ketchup these days. Additions such as Piri-Piri and teriyaki are a welcome change from the usual.
