InventHelp’s Invention Girl tries to stay on a healthy diet although it can be quite difficult at times. Fried foods are some of my favorite but I always try to avoid them because they can be so bad for you, or so I thought.

The T-fal FZ7000002 Actifry 2.2-Pound Low Fat Multi-Cooker and Healthy Fryer (I know, it’s a mouthful) tranforms “healthy fried food” from an oxymoron to a reality. This fryer is a low fat cooker that uses only one tablespoon of oil to create two pounds of tasty food. The Healthy Fryer creates french fries that have only 3% fat per serving which is a fraction compared to traditional deep fat fryers. Not only does it cook fries but it can also cook a variety of healthy options like chicken, seafood, stir frys, chili and more. It comes with a recipe book with 38 dishes that only require two tablespoons of oil or less.

The food is evenly cooked thanks to the stirring paddle and the pulse heat system. This will ensure an even distribution of the oil on each piece of food. It’s hands-free and requires no preheating which means it’s ready to go when you are! Another great feature is that cleanup is super easy because the removable pan, lid, paddle and tablespoon are all dishwasher safe.

It’ll be interesting to check out some of these new recipes!
