Healthier Treats
Is there such a thing?
Deserts don’t have to be a “house of cards” with nothing inside, nor do they have to taste like cardboard. They can be healthier and delicious at the same time. Yes, yes, sugar is sugar, but what kind of sugar? How about the flour and other ingredients? Real fruit? You know, the kind of ingredients that your body knows what to do with, not artificial or chemicals. I’m talking about REAL food; all of which where created with nutrients to nourish our bodies. And yes, even sugar in it’s natural state has something to offer. The point is, even sweets can be made with ingredients that benefit the body. I’d also like to say, when you eat real food full of nutrition one doesn’t tend to eat as much because the body will be satisfied, i.e. 3 cookies versus 12. I have found, if you decrease the sugar in your recipes, the body learns it doesn’t need that much “sweet”.
