FARGO — A quick spritz of cooking spray in the pan is a great way to cut fat and calories from a dish, but it comes with some added chemicals.

Most store-bought cooking sprays contain propellants and preservatives that are far from all-natural.

For less than $1, this incredibly simple fix was just what my morning omelet needed.

Olive Oil Cooking Spray

What you need

5 parts water

1 part olive oil

1 ordinary spray bottle

Pour water and oil in the bottle and shake well before each use. One spritz is all you need. Yes, that’s all there is to it.
