Ditch: Processed, refined grain buns

→ Try: Sandwich-ing your burger between two pieces of vegetables: lettuce leaves, slices of sweet potato or eggplant, portobello caps, bell peppers.

Ditch: Chips, pretzels, crackers with heavy dips

→ Try: Crunchy veggies like cucumbers, mini bell peppers, baby carrots with a bean dip, greek yogurt ranch dip, or this healthier high protein buffalo chicken dip.

Ditch: Processed meats

→ Try: Grilling fish like salmon, skewered shrimp, mahi mahi and swordfish. Check out this grilled swordfish recipe with a mediterranean twist.

Ditch: Icecream

→ Try: “Nice” cream: a sugar-free, dairy-free dessert made by blending pieces of frozen banana and other fruit in a food processor or high-speed blender. It creates a creamy, delicious healthy ice cream alternative. Check out recipes here.
