CRAVINGS

We all have the occasional craving for some food that we love.
Most of the time we are not craving healthy options...
we are craving something with maybe a bit of sweetness, saltiness, cheesiness, or something crunchy.

Here are a few options to grab in lieu of your original craving....

If you are craving:

chocolate, ice cream, or soft drinks

Try:

Dark chocolate melted over strawberries, or raspberries... YUM!

Real fruit sorbets
Seltzer water with a tiny bit of natural fruit juice for taste

If you are craving:

Chips, pretzels, potato chips (translation: salt and crunch)

Try:

Almonds, walnuts, baked veggie chips, crisp pickles, hummus with carrot sticks

If you are craving:

Mac 'N' Cheese, mashed potatoes, or bagels (don't we all crave this??)

Try:

Whole-wheat or rice pasta with protein rich soy cheese,
mashed potatoes with skins,
a whole wheat bagel with lox or
almond butter for added protein and healthy fats
