Top Condiment Swaps to Help You Lose Weight
I am a very conscious eater, and it baffles me sometimes what people will put into their mouths.
Here is my list of condiments that should be eliminated from your diet as much as possible and possible substitutes.
Fries Deep fried in lard or grease, dripping in trans and saturated fat, I don't know why people still eat these things! You can easily substitute fries for salsa with chips, veggies and dip or hummus and pita.
Be creative! Salad dressing Commercial brands of dressing such as vinaigrettes, Caesars, ranch all contain high amounts of sugar and generally garbage.
Read the label on some of the dressings at the supermarket next time you pass by.
I suggest you coat your salad with olive oil with balsamic when you are at home or out.
Ketchup Because of the acidity of tomatoes, ketchup is extremely high in sugar.
Substitute ketchup with tomatoes on burgers, or eat your fries without it or use the vegan gravy I have at the bottom.
Gravy High in saturated, trans fat, sodium and other dangerous substances, there is no reason why people should be eating this! This stuff is colored (yes they add color to it) garbage.
If you are using it to coat a dish, try using the juices of the meat instead with herbs and spices.
For example if you are cooking a turkey, use the turkey juices with herbs and spices.
Or with you are using this stuff on fries, have the fries plain instead.
