10 SIMPLE FOOD SUBSTITUTIONS FOR HEALTHY EATING

Bellow is a list of 10 simple food substitutions that can help you eat healthier and and more nutritious food. These food swaps are easy to make, and taste so good that it won’t be hard keeping the cravings away.

Popcorn for Potato Chips

Potato chips are fried and loaded with unhealthy fats and carbs. Next time try swapping them with homemade popcorn. Which is way healthier and definitely more fun to do. It’s also a great way to involve kids in the kitchen because they’ll love popping the corn.

Homemade Salad Dressing for Bottled Dressing

Next time you are about to pick up salad dressing at the supermarket, just stop and take a look at the labels. The list of ingredients you can’t understand will be far longer than the ones you can. Homemade salad dressing is far easier than you think.

Cauliflower for Potatoes

Dishes like cauliflower mash, cauliflower soup, and so many others can be made for a healthier substitute to potatoes which are loaded with carbs. The taste and texture can be really hard to differentiate and you’ll be eating veggies that are guilt free.

Dates for Sugar

Next time you start adding sugar to your smoothie, stop and add a couple of dates instead. You’ll be surprised at how naturally sweet they can be and their flavour will add another dimension to your smoothie. In fact date smoothies can taste pretty amazing and you’ll never go back to making smoothies any other way.

Flavoured Water for Cola

If you are in the habit of guzzling down a few cans of cola every day, you need to stop. I know how difficult it can be to drink plain tasteless water sometimes. So flavour your water with a few slices of lemon, cucumbers or berries and you have naturally sweetened and flavoured water that’s delicious and way healthier.

Replace Butter with Avocado

Honestly, there is no need to replace all your butter with avocado. But you can swap half your butter for healthier fats like avocado. Whether it’s on toast (avocado spread on toast tastes amazing!) or in your brownies. Yes, you can replace the butter in your baked goods with avocados and you won’t even tell the difference.

Replace Mayonnaise with Greek Yogurt

You’ll be surprised at how similar the textures of mayonnaise and greek yogurt are. Add a little garlic, salt and herbs to greek yogurt and you have a dip/ sandwich spread/ dressing that’s way better than mayonnaise. Tastier and healthier.
