Planning a cookout? Try these clean swaps to keep the flavor without the regret: ❌ Store-bought coleslaw ➡️ ✅ Greek yogurt slaw with lemon + honey ❌ Seed oil–soaked chips ➡️ ✅ Sliced cucumbers with guac or hummus ❌ BBQ sauce with HFCS ➡️ ✅ Homemade with maple + apple cider vinegar
I love the idea of sliced cukes with guac! I have gone to making my own chips in the dehydrator with sweet potatoes and cinnamon or eggplant or zuc with spicy paprika and salt. Super yummy. I just run through the food processor and dehydrate. They last many month.
