A Few Healthy Food Substitutions

Substituting for Fat or Egg
For best results, substitute either for fat or egg, not both.  Use an equal portion of pureed fruit (such as applesauce or bananas), nonfat yogurt, nonfat buttermilk, or nonfat ricotta cheese for each egg ( 1 egg equals approximately ¼ cup) or for the amount of fat called for in the recipe.

Reducing Eggs
Use 2 egg whites and 1 whole egg in recipes that call for three eggs.  Or, for recipes that call for 1 egg, use 1 egg white or an egg substitute equivalent to 1 whole egg.

Reducing Fats
Replace organic butter with same amount of organic applesauce, plain organic yogurt or organic baby prunes.

Thicken Gravies or Soups
Add ¼ to ½ cup of fresh barley and stir in the soup or gravy for about 20 minutes.
