Got a Food Craving? Eat This Instead!
For pasta: Use a vegetable peeler or a spiralizer to make long peeled “noodles” from zucchini, summer squash or cucumbers. Toss with your favorite herbs, fresh tomatoes and a little olive oil.
For chips: Cut slices from large carrots at a diagonal and use them to scoop up some fresh raw guacamole or hummus. Munching on slices of colorful raw beets, jicama or bell peppers also satisfies that need for a crunch.
For salty foods: Think celery, spinach or sea vegetables, either as is or juiced. Rehydrate sea vegetables and add them to a salty spinach and celery salad.
