Do you have a sweet tooth that needs to be regularly satisfied? Here are some healthier alternatives to your sugar cravings.
Dark chocolate
Dark chocolate (with at least 70% cacao) has significantly less sugar and fat than milk chocolate. This is a healthier alternative to sweet milk chocolate, but you have to remember to still eat in moderation.
Hot Chocolate
Use low-fat or skim milk to make a healthier hot chocolate treat.
Yogurt Fruit & Nut Bowl
Craving a sundae with all the sinful toppings? You can still have a wonderful yet healthier treat by making a parfait with yogurt, fruits, nuts, and granola.
Fruit Kebabs
Skewer the fruit pieces, and you’re good to go with your refreshing snack/dessert.
Peanut Butter & Jelly on Wheat Bread
Half a slice of wheat bread slathered with peanut butter and jelly will satisfy that sugar craving in a healthier way!
Baked Apple
If you are looking for a baked treat as a snack, choose the healthier option by baking an apple stuffed with nuts, oats, and some honey.
