Self Improvement Starts with Health Improvement





For me personally, when I plan my meal around a healthy vegetable I usually eat better. Here are a few substitutions to help you add vegetables & fruit to your meal planning. 
Let's Eat Clean! 

When a vegetable is the focus, I eat cleaner.  

Calorie Substitutions
 
Eating fruits and vegetables instead of higher-fat and higher-calorie foods may make it easier to control your weight. But remember, fruits and vegetables have calories too. The key is substitution, which can decrease the total amount of calories eaten in a day.
  • Choose pieces of fresh, whole fruit instead of baked goods for a sweet snack.
  • Choose crunchy vegetables instead of chips for a lunchtime side-dish.
  • Choose broth-based vegetable soups instead of cream-based soups for a lower fat alternative.
  • Choose a fruit smoothie instead of a milkshake.
  • Choose fruits and veggies packed in water or 100% juice rather than those packed with syrup, fats, oils or creamy sauces.
Meal Substitutions
 
When used as a substitution for higher-calorie, higher-fat ingredients, they bring healthy goodness to most any recipe.
  • In casseroles, add vegetables like corn or spaghetti squash in place of starches such as rice or pasta.
  • Use roasted vegetables in place of meats in Italian-style casseroles, such as lasagna or baked ziti.
Ingredient Substitutions
  • Use fruits and vegetables to reduce the amount of fat needed, and lower the overall calories in a recipe.
  • Use applesauce in place of oil in baked goods.
  • Use puréed dried figs in place of oil in baked goods.
  • Use puréed vegetables as a thickener for soups or gravies.

This is an easy chili recipe that you can throw in the slow cooker and forget about all day. Great topped with Cheddar cheese, crushed corn chips, and a dollop of sour cream.

1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
1/2 tablespoon ground cumin
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 pinch ground allspice
salt to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place turkey in the skillet, and cook until evenly brown; drain.
