Le’s go over 20 healthy and tasty food swaps to help you stay fit and energized this summer.

Healthy Food Swaps

A few small, healthy swaps to your diet can have a big impact on how you feel. Here are some easy and tasty food swaps that you can make to your plate to feel more energized and live healthier.

Swap Gummies for Dried Fruit

Try swapping gummies for dried fruit like pineapple, cranberries, or dates. These are so sweet and chewy, and you can feel good about eating them because they have no artificial coloring.

Swap Sports Drink for Coconut Water

Instead of sports drinks, try coconut water. It’s filled with electrolytes, naturally sweetened, and so refreshing after a good workout.

Swap Parmesan Cheese for Nutritional Yeast

Try swapping out your Parmesan cheese for some nutritional yeast. It’s an unaccented yeast that tastes very cheesy and tastes amazing sprinkled on top of your pasta.

Swap White Sugar for Coconut Sugar

Coconut sugar is just as sweet as white sugar, but with a nice caramel flavor. It works perfectly in your morning cup of joe.

Swap Mayonnaise-Based Dip for Hummus

Substitute mayonnaise-based dip with hummus. You can even make your own or buy it at the store. It’s just basically chickpeas and tahini, and it’s delicious with veggies.

Swap Mayonnaise for Mashed Avocado

Instead of mayonnaise, try some mashed up avocado. It works amazing on toast, and you can literally put it in anything. It has that creamy, buttery flavor and texture.

Swap Fried Eggs for Poached Eggs
