Healthy Swaps for Low-Carb Dinners




 
 

5.Seltzer for Sugary Soda
About half of adults in the U.S. drink at least one sugary drink per day. Just 12 ounces of cola has 36 grams of carbs, 35 grams of sugar, and about 46 grams of sodium. Instead of having a cup of sugary soda with dinner, reach for a glass of seltzer. You won’t find any carbs, sugar, or sodium in it. If you need a little more flavor, try adding a lemon or lime slice to your glass.

 

6.Roasted Vegetables for Potatoes
Instead of serving roasted potatoes with dinner, why not try some roasted veggies? You’ll cut down on fat and carbs while gaining some extra calcium and vitamin C. Although you can prepare the veggies with your favorite seasonings, salt and pepper is enough to do the job.
