Smart Substitution Suggestions

1 can artichoke hearts→Fresh steamed artichoke hearts

Canned artichokes are often stored in brine with high sodium levels, whereas fresh artichokes provide the same nutritional benefits without the excess salt.

2 tablespoons lemon vinaigrette→Extra virgin olive oil and fresh lemon juice

Store-bought vinaigrettes often contain hidden sugars, thickeners, and inflammatory seed oils, whereas a homemade dressing ensures only high-quality, whole-food ingredients are used.
