Smart Substitution Suggestions

olive oil→avocado oil

Avocado oil has a higher smoke point, making it more stable for high-heat roasting of vegetables to prevent oxidation.

almond flour→ground flaxseed or nutritional yeast blend

This substitution lowers the overall caloric density and provides an extra boost of fiber and B vitamins for a lighter snack.
