1. Replace Canned Tuna with Wild Planet Tuna
Sustainably sourced Wild Albacore Tuna containing 21 g of clean protein per 3 ounces and 705 mg of DHA and EPA Omega 3s. Wild Planet Tuna is Non-GMO verified, gluten-free and Kosher Pareve plus lower in Mercury. This is the most delicious tuna EVER...my entire family is addicted!
2. Replace Potato Chips with Everybody Eat Snack Thins
I have become the biggest fan of these snack thins. They make a perfect potato chip alternative—crunchy, salty, and full of flavor. Their straightforward, good-for-you ingredients will keep you coming back for more without any guilt.
3. Replace Pasta Noodles with Organic Tinkyada Gluten-Free Rice Pasta
This gluten-free rice pasta is SO good. You can’t even tell the difference in a blind taste test. It’s not mushy or sticky and has the same amazing consistency as regular pasta. The trick is to undercook by a few minutes and serve it al dente. Yum!
4. Replace Crackers with Top Seedz Certified Organic Gluten-Free Crackers
Made of sesame, sunflower, pumpkin, and flax seeds, these crackers are 10/10 in taste and quality. They are seriously addicting so I make sure to buy in bulk. My favorite flavors are the sea salt, rosemary, and 6-seed. You can even make them yourself (and save money too) with the cracker mix.
5. Replace Chocolate with Hu chocolate
One of the best-tasting dark chocolates I have tried, this brand offers tons of variations. I love that this chocolate brand is organic, vegan, gluten-free, non-GMO, and fair trade. I eat one square to satisfy my sweet tooth after each meal.
