Smart Substitution Suggestions

balsamic vinaigrette→homemade dressing with extra virgin olive oil and apple cider vinegar

Store-bought balsamic vinaigrette often contains added sugars and unhealthy seed oils.

feta cheese→goat cheese or organic raw sheep milk feta

Choosing grass-fed or higher quality dairy sources provides better nutrient profiles and avoids potential additives found in conventional cheese.
