Best Health – August-September 2019

If you’re just skinning apples and potatoes, you’re missing out

on a major health/wallet hack: You don’t actually need a spi-

ralizer to make zoodles. A peeler works just as well for mak-

ing this guilt-free “pasta” dish. Top your pappardelle-esque

zoodles with a tomato or pesto sauce for an easy, clean meal.

PINT-ING FOR YOU

Healthy ice cream has had a major glow up. From an oxymoron to a subpar stand-in,

it’s finally the compromise-free indulgence we’ve all been waiting for.

DAIRY-FREE CALORIE CONSCIOUS PORTION CONTROL CLEAN TREAT

Clocking in at under 170

calories per serving thanks

to its skim-milk base, this

sweet treat scores brownie

points for using cage-free

eggs and non-GMO

ingredients.

This dairy-free dessert is so

incredibly creamy, thanks to

fresh-pressed coconut milk,

you’ll barely believe that it’s

vegan!

One of these creamy yet

doughy Japanese-inspired

treats is only 60 calories and

has no artificial colours,

flavours or preservatives.

This unique treat uses frozen

bananas as a base but man-

ages to stay creamy, not

sorbet-like (not that there’s

anything wrong with that!). Did

we mention that it’s organic,

peanut-free and plant-based?
