If you are avoiding common food allergens like wheat and dairy, have dietary restrictions such as vegetarianism or are following a popular eating plan such as the Paleo Diet, customized nutrition isn’t always as easy as just opening the refrigerator or wandering down the aisles of your local grocery store. Sometimes, you need to get creative when searching for food replacements to use in your recipes and cooking. On www.nowfoods.com/, I found some suggestions to spark ideas on food replacements and substitutions when cooking for someone with a food allergy or a dietary restriction. here is the list:  |

After reading nutrition labels, nearly everything on grocery store shelves seemed to have the very ingredients you can't touch. So instead of eating cheese puffs, a good replacement is rice puffs and it turns out that taste is very similar. It helps a lot to make small substitutions like that.

You can replace mayonnaise with Greek yogurt. It's tangy like mayo and has the same texture, too. You can use this sub in basically any recipe. Except for maybe your BLTs. Swap mayo for Greek yogurt in dips and salad dressings. And the best part: You save 90 calories, 11g fat and 85mg sodium per tablespoon.  |

White rice isn’t necessarily bad for you, but it is higher in calories and carbs than quinoa, plus quinoa will give you an extra boost of fiber, protein and minerals like iron and zinc.
Despite its grain-like qualities, quinoa is actually a seed from a plant known as goosefoot, which is in the same family as spinach and beets. It makes a truly delicious and nutritious superfood substitute for rice and works well in so many recipes. It’s high in fiber and it’s a source of iron, magnesium, phosphorus, manganese and zinc.

It’s high time to bin the traditional potato chips; and opt for something healthier and maybe even tastier. Sweet potatoes have high levels of beta-carotene and have been proven to raise levels of vitamin A in our blood. They're also full of vitamins B6, C and D. Vitamin B6 may help reduce levels of degenerative diseases and heart attacks.

You can use applesauce instead of oil when baking.

Try fresh herbs and spices instead of salt and salt-based herbs. You'll leave behind the sodium and add new flavor to your meals. If you can't use fresh herbs, dried herbs and spices are great alternatives.
