    Yes, absolutely. If it fits in your plan, go forth in good health.

    My only question is: do you really fry in 1 TBS of oil? Are you deep frying or pan frying a chicken cutlet?

    If it fits into your calorie goal, why not?

    You just have to account for it. A tablespoon of sunflower oil is 120 calories. So as long as that fits into your daily goals, you will be fine.

    Why not? I use sesame oil at least once a week and use olive oil as well. If it fits into your calorie goals and you have no medical reason not to, then go ahead!
