This past week while talking to some local fans the discussion came up of winter weight and carbs. Well it's of course an ice storm in Ohio and many are just relaxing inside and not getting out and moving about as we would on a nice and sunny day.
Here's a list of carb alternatives that I found in Prevention magazine that can help battle the winter carb blues:
Instead of......................... Try...
Mashed Potatoes Mashed cauliflower
Lasagna Noodles Egg plant (sliced)
White Flour Almond flour
Spaghetti Spaghetti Squash
Apple Pie Baked apples / raw apple
Granola All-Bran
Orange juice Orange (whole)
Pizza crust Portobello mushrooms
Soda Seltzer with Lime / Water
Potato Chips Peanuts or various nuts
