Tips

1. Understand what is known as "MUFAs." MUFA is short for mono-unsaturated fatty acids. This type of fat is considered to be a healthy form of fat that will target the fat found in the belly area. MUFAs are "good fat" that you must include in every meal for this plan to work. There are five main groups of MUFAs from which you can pick. Each one is detailed below.

2. Select from the numerous MUFA oils available to cook with or add to your creations. You can use any of the following oils in your meals to burn belly fat: canola oil, olive oil, safflower oil, flaxseed oil, sesame oil, peanut oil, walnut oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil and pesto sauce.

3. Choose the right seeds and nuts that contain MUFA. All of these nuts and seeds burn belly fat and can be consumed as snacks or added to many recipes: almond butter, natural peanut butter (smooth and crunchy), cashew butter, dry-roasted cashews, dry-roasted sunflower seeds, dry-roasted peanuts, roasted pumpkin seeds, walnuts, Brazil nuts, hazelnuts, almonds, pine nuts, pecans, macadamia nuts, pistachios, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and sesame seed paste (tahini).

4. Add avocados to your meals to burn belly fat. Include either the Hass or Florida avocado in many different entrees to incorporate this MUFA in your diet.

5. Eat plenty of olives. Choose from black olives, green olives or black olive tapenade or green olive tapenade and watch the belly fat disappear.

6. Include chocolate MUFAs in your diet plan to burn belly fat. Pick from semi-sweet chocolate chips, dark chocolate chips or chunks or shavings of both to add this delicious belly-fat-burning MUFA.
