Being healthy doesn’t mean you need to give up your favorite dishes or cocktails. You just need to give them a healthy twist! With these simple tips and tricks you can make any of your Latin favorites healthier, better for you and taste better too.
First off, the basics: Keep fresh fruits and vegetables accessible, front and center. Stay hydrated by drinking lots of water, minimize your salt and sugar intake and don’t keep junk food at home. If you have piroulines you can bet you are going to eat them.
As for recipes, the first step to making them healthier is as easy as swapping ingredients.
Swap white flour for whole wheat or whole grain.
From your tortillas to your bread and flour, opt for whole wheat and whole grain. You get more of a nutritional punch, increased fiber and lower sugar.
