food swaps to cut calories and add nutrients!

1) swap sour cream/ranch dressing with plain nonfat yogurt!  Add some fresh dill to plain yogurt and you have some bomb dip for your veggies :)

2) Instead of drinking bottled juice, make your own homemade juice with your juicer!

3) Swap whole milk with non fat milk or soy milk

4) Throw out the potato chips and make kale chips! (i'll post a kale chip recipe later)

5) Swap alfredo sauce with tomato sauce.  White creamy sauces are LOADED!

6) Swap ramen with homemade soba (buckwheat noodle) salad

7) Swap white rice with brown rice

8) Swap store bought croutons with homemade croutons!

9) Swap pop-sickles and ice cream with frozen freshly juiced fruits (my fav is strawberries)

10) swap red meats with fish (salmon)

11) Swap chicken thighs/wings with chicken breast.

That's all i can think of for now
