I have lost 100 pounds using a variety of diet tips. Some of my favorite weight loss tricks are food swaps. I trade fatty, sugary, salty, junky ingredients for healthier, low-calorie ones. For example, I adore pasta and potato salads and cole slaw. But made the usual way, sloppy with mayo, sugar, etc., they are calorie-bombs. So here's a to-die-for cole slaw recipe you could literally live on. It's vegan, full of superfoods and protein, diabetic, bad fat-free, ketogenic (high in good fatty acids), paleo, low in sodium, sugarfree and a meal in itself. Oh and it's super cheap to make.
<----It's pretty too--see the picture! (Those aren't bugs, lol, but seeds)

SUPERFOOD KALE SLAW BOWL
chopped kale with stems removed
coarsely grated carrots
chopped green and purple cabbage
cubed salad cucumbers (much tastier than other cukes)
chopped zucchini
sliced grape tomatoes
cashews and/or walnuts and/or almonds
pumpkin seeds
milled flaxseed
chia seeds
unsweetened dried strawberries, cranberries or blueberries
apple cider, acai or pomegranate vinegar
whole seed, Dijon or horseradish mustard
lemon juice and zest
100% juice, raw honey (omit if making vegan) or blue agave syrup (optional)
Chop, slice, toss ingredients, season to taste with vinegar, mustard juice or honey, and enjoy.
This kale slaw is sweet enough for me without any honey or juice. But you may like it sweeter. Go easy on the juice and dried fruit as they are full of sugar and will spike glucose levels.
