A week of delicious dinners with no added sugar to help you feel your best!
There’s nothing I enjoy more than a slice of chocolate cake topped with vanilla ice cream.
In fact, American adults typicallyconsume more than doublethe recommended amount.
One reason is that added sugars arent only in sweet bites but also creep into savory dishes.
Ketchup, salad dressings and pre-made sauces are just a few commonsneaky sources of added sugar.
Though I won’t avoid added sugars forever, a week of no added sugars feels about right.
Here, peaches plus Brie cheese and tarragon dress up chicken breast for a delicious grilled dish.
Veggies like tomatoes and red bell peppers deliver antioxidants to help tame inflammation.
Plus, using whole-wheat pasta instead of regular bumps up the fiber for a satisfying vegetarian meal.
To serve alongside, Ill make aCucumber & Avocado Salad.
The capers and olives add a delicious briny flavor, and topping with parsley adds a fresh touch.
This recipe has a rich umami taste enhanced by the mixed mushrooms, whichprovide gut-healthy and anti-inflammatory properties.
When trying to reduce my added sugar intake, I rely on foods that naturally have lots of flavor.
Fat content increases the tastiness of food.
And the roasted peppers and cilantro add a pop of fiber in addition to beautiful bright colors.
This meal provides a whopping 27 grams of protein to help me feel satisfied.
Ill heat pre-cooked quinoa to serve alongside, which provides an additional 4 grams of protein per half-cup serving.
I wish you all a great week, and I hope you enjoy this dinner plan.
