Skip the butter and sour cream. Salsa is your baked


potato’s new BFF.


Peanut butter powder will flavor smoothies


without the fat.


Move over, mayo. Greek yogurt can take its place


in salads and on sandwiches.


Waffle and pancake upgrade: Use warm


applesauce or sautéed fruit instead of syrup.


Add a slice of tomato, pepper strips, or shredded


spinach to grilled cheese. 116 MARCH 2018

Add cannellini or butter beans to smoothies for


a thick, creamy texture and added protein and fiber.


Use bone broth instead of regular chicken broth for


added protein.

Fill your plate with veggie swap-outs like cauliflower


rice or zucchini noodles.


Instead of steaming or boiling, try roasting


veggies. The caramelized flavor is hearty and satisfying.


l In case you haven’t noticed, it’s egg season. Don’t hide them all, though, because eggs are protein-packed, nutrient-dense, and conveniently portion-controlled right in their natural “package.”


l Although there are no specific guidelines about how many eggs to eat, studies have consistently shown that eating up to two eggs per day does not have detrimental health effects, so they can be part of a balanced diet. They’re also one of the few foods that are a naturally good source of vitamin D.


l Bring on the recipes: A poached or sunny-side-up egg on top of salad, pasta, or toast is all the rage (just check Instagram!), and it’s a great way to add satisfying nutrition to your meal. Or go traditional with a garden omelet and start your day the veggie-filled way. And while you’re dyeing eggs this year, boil up a few extra for egg salad.
