- No Recommendations yet - go add some!
- Make small changes over time. This week, revise ONE recipe to be healthier - or - find ONE healthy substitute for a favorite unhealthy snack.
It is true that there is just too much sugar, fat and additives in a lot of the foods we are used to eating. I gave up Doritos after reading the ingredient list (that's if you can pronounce that stuff).
My substitutions include: tortilla chips in moderation (made of just corn, oil, salt) with salsa, homemade popcorn, dip fresh veggies in a bit of salad dressing (occasionally peanut butter), or have a handful of mixed nuts (reduced salt) or trail mix. Find a trail mix that has no sulfites, used often in dried fruits. You have to read the labels. I found my trail mix at BJ's Wholesale.
Yes, it is very easy to grab processed food when you're hungry & in a hurry. But a little thinking ahead (take your snacks with you when you leave your home in the AM) can make a big difference over time.
