In fact, a study published in June 2015 in the journal Public Health Nutrition found that cooking at home can help you consume less, fat, carbs, and sugar than eating at a restaurant. But that doesn’t mean you have the green light to eat mac 'n cheese every day.

“A home-cooked meal can be just as unhealthy as a restaurant meal if you use unhealthy ingredients, cooking methods, or don’t reign in your portions,” says Jackie Topol, MS, RD, a registered dietitian and culinary nutritionist in New York City. Read on to discover four cooking mistakes that may cause weight gain, plus how to correct them so you can reach your health goals.

This is especially true for cooking oil. It’s easy to drizzle far more than needed, and that’s a problem since one tablespoon of olive oil contains about 120 calories, which can add up quickly.

The Fix: You still want to use healthy fats like olive oil when cooking, but Topol suggests sticking with two teaspoons, which contains about 80 calories, for most meals. Use a measuring spoon to make sure you don’t pour too much.

Cooking Mistake #2 Following recipes from cooking shows exactly Those recipes you see on TV might look mouthwatering, but they may not be so great for your waistline. A study published in 2015 in the journal Appetite found that women who watch cooking shows and then whip up meals from scratch have higher BMIs than people who get recipes from print or online sources.

Cooking Mistake #3 Avoiding your spice rack You have tons of herbs and spices — but you frequently forget to use them so they just sit and look pretty on your shelves. But the thing is, spices like smoked paprika, Italian seasoning blends, and curry powder can add megawatt flavor for next to no calories.

For example, sprinkle turmeric into rice while it simmers, add herbs de Provence to scrambled eggs, or dust smoked paprika on dishes to impart a “bacon-y” flavor. Cooking Mistake #4 Nibbling as you cook Calories don’t count if you’re not sitting down when you eat them, right?

Not so fast. “Taking even small bites of the ingredients you’re cooking with can really add up if you’re not careful,” says Topol. The Fix: If you’re someone who likes to nibble while you cook (and who doesn’t?), keep pre-cut veggies like bell pepper strips or cucumber slices on-hand so you have something healthy to munch on while you’re preparing your food.

Love to enjoy a glass of wine while you cook? To avoid the extra calories, pour bubbly water (like LaCroix or Pellegrino) into a wine glass for a fancy but calorie-free sip, suggests Topol.
