By Posted on 0 2 m read 2.3K views

Trying to lose weight but failing? Feeling hard to give up your Pizza and vouch for salads instead? Does the thought of swapping your Mac N cheese for a Fiesta salad scare the wits out of you? Then worry not Cookifi brings to you healthy food replacements for calorie-loaded snacks:

 

Cheeseburgers- Mini Beetroot Falafel Burger

Cheeseburgers contain a lot of toxic elements that shoot up your macros way beyond the desired level. Opt for healthy falafels made with grated beetroot and air-fry them.

 

French Fries- Fresh Veggies sticks

Those golden looking delights are the cause of a bulging flabby belly. Replace those oil-laden snacks and get fresh Veggies with hummus dips. Simple, easy and healthy!

 

Garlic Bread- Butter free Pav Bhaji Bruschetta

Garlic bread is loaded with flavored butter and a calorie-rich snack. Why not replace it with something that is much more tastier and on the healthier side. Bruschettas are graced with a spread of butter-free pav bhaji and garnished with cilantro and lemon juice.

Minced meat patties- Oats cutlets

Minced meat is loaded with oil which is gets absorbed due to the breadcrumbs. Instead of that use healthier vegetarian fillings and coat them with ground oats flour and airfry them. All of the fun and none of the guilt.

 

Club sandwiches- Whole wheat Coleslaw sandwiches

Club sandwiches are wrongly marketed as healthy. The amount of mayo that goes into them and a side of fries, make the calorie meter shoot up. Opt for whole wheat sandwiches made with a yogurt-based coleslaw to keep the calories in check.

 

Sin by fire- Poached Chicken with Quinoa and Carrot-Celery Sauce

Mashed Potatoes and Herbed Rice are carbs that ring the warning bell. Make sure you can swap them for some nutritious Quinoa, poached chicken breast and a spicy sauce made of carrots and calorie fighting celery.

 

Spaghetti with meatballs- Roasted Chicken in Marinara Sauce and Rice Noodles

Cooked in large amounts of oil with meats rich in fat, meatballs are only something you should save for the cheat day. Replace the saucy delights with an equally juicy and tasty Roasted chicken served alongside warm rice noodles and marinara sauce.
