Drizzle with 1 tsp lemonor garlic-infused olive oil for added flavor and. Porridge with blueberry compote. Baked banana porridge. 2. Make a lunchbox swap. Simple swaps can make a big difference to the amount of sugar hidden in kids’ lunchboxes.

Instead of chocolate, cake bars or pudding pots, swap to healthier options, like a lower-sugar yogurt, sugar-free jelly or slice of malt loaf. Granola. Eat this: Oatmeal.

The body benefit: A half-cup cooked serving of Quaker Steel Cut Oats contains just 150 calories, 2.5 grams of fat, and 1 gram of sugar. Sprinkling 10 fresh blueberries. If you want to amp up the healthy factor, skip the butter and eat it with heart-healthy high-quality olive oil.

For extra flavor, sprinkle the oil with rosemary, oregano, basil and a little. Simple ingredient swaps will reduce the amount of calories in your holiday meal. Follow these healthy holiday food swaps for a healthier Thanksgiving.

  • when you say 1258 grams of sodium are you aware that is more than 1 kilo of sodium which weights way more than the whole meal?
    Maybe you mean milligrams?

  • Uhm, I believe you miscalculated the vegan pizza calories. It said 150 calories per 1/3 crust. So 1 crust would be 450 calories alone. With the sauce, veggies, and nuts you added, I believe the end result would be much higher than 499

  • I eat only 2 piece of pizza
    I think I rather have the 2 pizza slices
    And the only reason why is because thin crust dose not = pizza to me
    Other then that I agree that it’s better to cook at home

  • okay so you said the whole healthy pizza was 499 calories, but when you showed the nutritional info for the crust, one serving was 150 calories, and there were 6 servings so the crust alone for the whole pizza would be 900 calories. Maybe you just messed up on the math but stop trying to fool people.

  • I just wanted to say thank you. I am not vegan or a vegetation. I am happily an omnivore.
    That being said I have been trying very hard to get past my food boredom. I first came across you with your vegan $10 a week challenge. It was inspiring.
    I wanted to listen to someone who was honest about there experiences and could and does cook fairly simply for the most part and make it so deliciously. You have made my veg far less boring and inspired me beyond belief. Thank you for being so wonderful and providing the world with your beautiful spirit and the love support, and recipes, that you share. You are making beautiful changes in this world. I love these recipes and the person you are. Thank you.:)

  • I wish my mom does this all the time��

    Because all my mom buys is junk food��

    And she yells at me because I beg for fruits that I want not what she wants.

    Not saying that she is abusive but it’s true��

  • Today I weighed 98.4
    And later I ate a lot of junk food and weighed the same
    And yes who does eat 2 slices of pizza my cousin is 5 and every time he eats 10 slices and he does gain it

  • calories are only a small factor in weight gain, eating large potions will stretch your stomach making you hungry more and able to eat more

    also remember that not all calories are equal and less calories will not always mean less weight and furthermore weight doesn’t say anything about your overall health

  • Better yet….
    1. Swap out the burger with a homemade black bean walnut burger on a portobello mushroom bun
    2. Swap out the flour crust with a cauliflower crust or portobello mushroom
    3. Swap out the cooked rice with cauliflower rice

  • I think your sodium measure is milligrams and not grams…. 1200 grams of sodium is 1.2 kilograms which is probably close to 3 pounds.

  • I can’t be the only one who dislikes chipotle…. yeah it may be a bit healthier than other fast foods, but it just taste off to me ��

  • I like you content a lot. But the calculation of the pizza was off. 150 Kcal per serving just on the crispy pizza crust the whole pizza would be higher than 900 kcal just on the crust.

  • As a first time watcher of this channel, or like to thank the comment section for keeping me from clicking away from this video. Because of how long the intro was going, I assumed the entire video was just like that and was about to just not watch this! Turns out there’s a chick who hosts and talks!

    Please make your intros shorter. While I am not interested in subscribing, I believe that you are really hurting your chances with bringing in and retaining first time viewers.

  • I always get extra fajita veggies in my burrito bowls. Highly recommend! It only adds like 1 gram of fat to your total bowl and it’s so delish

  • Look, diet isn’t going to help you if you don’t work out. If you at least go for a 20 minute run every day, you won’t need any diet at all.

  • MAN!!! American food has SO MANY calories! Damn I’m Italian and it’s really really hard to find a frozen pizza over 800 calories. crazy

  • When you’re traveling worst comes to worst you can stop and get a burger and take the bun off, and get a fruit cup instead of a serving of fries.
