I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, eating healthy doesn’t mean you have to give up your favorite foods.nOver the years I have been amazed by how easy and delicious it is to swap your favorite foods for a healthier version. Today I’m sharing my favorite healthy swaps.
These are my absolute favorites
| Sugar/sweetener | ——> | Dates (syrup) or maple syrup |
| Milk chocolate | ——> | 70-85% chocolate or make your own |
| Sunflower oil | ——> | Coconut oil |
| Soda | ——> | Water with fresh lemon or lime or iced tea |
| Wheat pasta | ——> | Brown rice pasta, soba noodles or zucchini pasta |
| Potato chips | ——> | Kale chips, or sweet potatoe chips/wedges |
| Cows milk | ——> | Almond milk (the easy version) |
| Table salt | ——> | Himalayan or Celtic sea salt |
| Chai latte | ——> | Chai tea with extra spices |
| Hot chocolate | ——> | Hot cacao with almond milk |
| Fudge | ——> | Fresh date filled with almond butter |
| Cake | ——> | Banana bread |
| Store bought jam | ——> | Home made chia jam |
| Buttery mashed potatoes | ——> | Mashed cauliflower |
| Cheese | ——> | Nutritional yeast |
What is your healthy swap that made your life a lot healthier? For me those were dates, I was quite a sugar addict so I owe dates a lot!
