Healthy Alternatives-home or menu

  Sometimes we don't want to give up the food we love for a healthier alternative on the menu or in the kitchen. Instead, lets swap out some unhealthy ingredients for some better choices! Look for these on menus and at your local grocery store and even bring them with you to use on vacation.

  Coconut aminos- Take the place of soy sauce and sodium products. Taste just like soy sauce but made from coconut trees and have no sodium in them.


  Quinoa- An ancient and healthy carbohydrate that replaces rices, pastas, and breads. Hint: if cooking it yourself, cook it in veggie or meat stock instead of water.

  Chia seeds- a grain that can be used to make tapioca pudding, can be put on yogurt, can be used in cookies... Use your imagination. They are a great source of protein with little flavor and add crunch to your food. Easy to take of your trip.

  Coconut water- Can replace sodas and sugary juices. It is nature's Gatorade with natural electrolytes.

  Coconut oil- Obviously coconuts in all forms are healthy options... This miracle fruit also has been made into an oil that does not change to a trans-fat at high temperatures (unlike olive oil) and is very good for your skin and body. Substitute this oil when you are cooking with oil or baking.

  Almond flour- Made entirely from ground almonds and is a healthy alternative to flour. Gluten free and much sweeter than regular flour, it requires less sugary additives when baking. Look up recipes using almond flour when you get in a baking mood for your trip or dinner party.
