I love sauces and dressings, but I know they can be loaded with unhealthy ingredients. Any tips for making homemade versions that are lower in fat and sugar?

When whipping up sauces and dressings, I sneak in some healthy swaps like using Greek yogurt instead of mayo or adding in some extra veggies for a nutritional boost. It's all about finding that perfect balance between flavor and healthiness! 🥗🥑

Totally get it! I like making my own sauces with fresh herbs and spices instead of relying on store-bought mixes. Less sodium, more flavor! Plus, using olive oil instead of butter keeps things heart-healthy. 🌿 #DIYHealthyEating

Hi! To make homemade sauces and dressings healthier, focus on limiting added sugars. Instead of using refined sugars, opt for natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or mashed fruits. These alternatives provide sweetness without the negative health effects associated with excessive sugar consumption.
