Did you know that whipped cream cheese has one third less fat than regular? Mixed with a seasoning or fresh herbs you have a flavorful spread. Try our Mini Cucumber with Turkey Sandwich recipe, this sandwich is perfect for summer time.
Olive Oil, parsley and Milton's Healthy Multi-Grain Bread make this garlic bread a heart-healthy recipe and a far cry from traditional garlic bread recipes. It will be hard to have just one piece.
High in Omega 3, color and crunch this sandwich beats all the competition. For maximum nutrition, always use light mayonnaise and pack your sandwiches with vegetables.
To cut the fat in your meatloaf recipe try using ground turkey. Not too sure about turkey vs. ground beef? Try half lean ground beef and half ground turkey for a great meatloaf combo. Remember, the onions and carrots not only pump up the nutrition but will also keep the meatloaf from drying out.
You can't beat fish for a meal that's high in protein and low in fat. Make a change for healthy living by eating fish at least once or twice a week. Serve our Baked Tilapia with steamed vegetables and rice for a heart healthy meal.
Let your kids prepare this fun and healthy breakfast dish. Start their day with over 10 grams of fiber and plenty of protein to keep them full until lunch. Serve with a glass of orange juice or fresh fruit.
Forget the mayo here. Avocado, high in Vitamin E and fiber makes a flavorful sandwich spread. Try it with our Turkey Avocado Sprout Club Sandwich other healthy additions include tomatoes, and spinach for added flavor and nutrition.
When shopping at your local deli, consider using turkey pastrami instead of beef pastrami to cut fat and calories without sacrificing flavor. Don't forget the vegetables to add color and important nutrients.
This might sound weird, but next time you make a sandwich, consider adding fruit between your slices. Fruit flavors can compliment many types of sandwiches, such as dried cranberries on turkey, our try our Sweet n' Crunchy Chicken Salad sandwich recipe. This healthy, high fiber sandwich is a Milton's favorite. Use light mayonnaise and chicken breast meat to reduce the fat and calories. A serving of fruit in every sandwich is an added bonus!
Families on-the-go struggle to find healthy snacks that'll keep them full and energized to make it through that afterschool soccer game or late night at the office. When choosing snacks, look for protein and whole grains for the most energy. Our Trail Mix Bites are a great solution because they're soft baked for the little mouths to chew, rich in nutrition, and incredibly delicious!
