Every year I try to do a little more for my family to better our health habits. The first thing I do is slowly swap food items for healthier alternatives! We strive for clean eating, but like everyone, we’re human and not perfect! Here you’ll find so...
We’ve swapped our regular dairy milk for oat milk! It’s the one alternative our kids are on board with. It tastes closest to regular milk, without the hormones and tummy issues!
Oats : Milk Substitutes
Another great non-dairy swap to help ease digestion and bloat! I’ve noticed I’m not as bloated since swapping out my dairy
Califia Farms : Coffee Creamer
I’ve tried so many mushroom coffees and this is one of my top contenders! A smooth vanilla flavor, zero crash, digestive aid and help with focus!
Avocado oil is a great swap for canola oil. Avocado is a great healthy fat and the oil is clean and has a higher smoke point making it great for cooking!
Avocado Oil : Cooking Oil & Vinegar
I was so impressed with these! We’ve dropped gluten and feel so much better! These are soft and perfect when toasted. They’re not dry or crumbly like so many g free products. Well worth the try!
Gluten Free Original English Muffins
I’ve tried a few plant butters trying to be healthier. I can’t stand margarine! This is the closest taste to real butter that I’ve found and I love it!!
Violife : Plant Based Dairy
Alkaline water! Not an all the time swap, but more “as often as we can.” Hydrate and balance your ph!
Alkaline Bottled Water | Essentia & More Sizes
We swapped most pork/beef for poultry wherever we can! Lower sodium, lower fat! We do still like the occasional steak for some iron (and flavor!) though!
Chicken Sausage
My current favorite since I can’t find violife anywhere! Great flavor, not earthy, and is perfect for your favorite dishes. Or just toast
Country Crock Plant Butter Sticks with Olive Oil
Love a good coffee cream alternative
Almond Creamer - Amazon.com
Great tasting hydration when you need an electrolyte boost!
Key Nutrients: Shop Hydration Supplements
Buy it in bulk. Mix it in everything. A filling grain that doesn’t spike blood sugar like white rice.
NISHIKI Premium Brown Rice, 5-Pound - Amazon.com
Going gluten free has been a game changer in our house. I feel so much less bloated and my digestive system is thanking me!
Gluten-free : Breads - Target
One of the best gluten free pasta brands! Cooks and tastes is like regular pasta
Gluten Free Pasta | Barilla
The BEST yogurt alternative. As someone who doesn’t love dairy, this is sweet and flavorful with the perfect texture. Love this alternative
Cocojune products at Target
I was shocked with how delicious this is. Philadelphia does it right!
Non-Dairy Plant-Based Original "Cream Cheese" Spread - Kraft Heinz
Ditch the fatty queso for some healthy hummus. No, it’s not the same but it works, it’s versatile and you can add whatever you want to it
Hummus - Target
Everyone needs a little support. Here’s a great tool to help you make healthy meals and stay on track

Not “healthier” per se, but gluten free! Which in my case, is healthier

Sweet potato’s are jam packed with nutrients! These are a great, and sweet, alternative to regular tater tots
