Food alternatives
A dairy-free meal plan designed for fatty liver can be made more effective with these substitutions:
- To lower fat intake, use cauliflower rice instead of brown rice as a base for your meals.
- For a lighter protein source, replace chicken breasts with turkey breast, which is leaner and lower in fat.
- Instead of almond butter, consider tahini, which offers healthy fats with a slightly lower calorie count.
- For a different green, swap spinach with Swiss chard, which has a milder flavor and similar nutritional benefits.
- Instead of sweet potatoes, try using turnips, which are lower in carbohydrates and still offer a satisfying texture.
How to budget on this meal plan
Opt for bulk purchases of oatmeal, brown rice, and lentils, which are staples in this plan. Almond milk can often be found on sale, or consider making your own to save costs. Frozen berries and mixed vegetables are more affordable and last longer. For proteins like chicken breasts, salmon, and tofu, buying in bulk and freezing portions is cost-effective. Utilize versatile ingredients like quinoa and chickpeas in multiple meals to maximize their use.
