5 healthy toast toppings

You can still enjoy a slice of toast without smothering it in butter. Try our five healthy toppings for toast, crumpets or scones, and enjoy a tasty snack without harming your heart.

1. Avocado

Give cheese on toast a miss and instead use sliced or mashed avocado to top toast or crumpets. This quick snack is rich in unsaturated, rather than saturated, fats. Try a sprinkle of seeds or chilli flakes for an extra kick.

2. Mashed or sliced banana

If you love sweet toppings or you’re very hungry, mashed or sliced banana is a delicious and filling addition to scones, crumpets or toast, without adding free sugars. Sprinkle with a little cinnamon or seeds for extra flavour.

3. Berries and low-fat Greek yoghurt

For a healthier twist on the traditional cream tea, try topping warm scones with strawberries, blackberries or blueberries and a dollop of low-fat Greek yoghurt. It’s great on toast, too!

4. Pure nut butters

Nut butters, such as almond or peanut, are a versatile topping and are good on their own or combined with fresh fruit. Check the ingredients and choose the ones made only from nuts, without added salt, sugar or palm oil. If you have a food processor, you can blend your favourite unsalted nuts until smooth. Decorate with your favourite fruit, or with grated carrot to keep it savoury.

5. Chia and berry ‘jam’

Simple to make: soak around 20g of chia seeds in four tablespoons of water, mix with 150g of your favourite berries or cherries, then blend. Decant into a jar or bowl, cover and refrigerate. The seeds provide protein without the added sugar that you usually get in jam.

mychn.org - The Top 9 Healthiest Meats for Weight Loss - Community Health Network

Before we list the top 9 healthy meats for weight loss, we want to answer a pressing question. Is meat healthy? Like we stated earlier, that’s a bit of a loaded question. All meats are not unhealthy. However, there are some meats you may want to avoid. Experts say that you can have a healthy diet that includes meat. So, what types of meat should you avoid? First, you should avoid processed meats. Hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken fingers, salami, pepperoni, and others are a few examples. These processed meats are staples in many households, especially in America. Who doesn’t love a good hot dog? You don’t have to give them up cold turkey. But, if you can’t entirely give them up, you can limit your processed meat consumption. Eating processed meats in large amounts can lead to a higher risk of colon cancer. This is because processed meats contain large amounts of sodium and saturated fats. High sodium consumption from processed meats has been linked to death from stroke, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes. In short, meat can be healthy. This is because meat provides protein and vitamins, and minerals like B12. Kris Sollid, RD, Senior Director, Nutrition Communications at the International Food Information Council Foundation, states: “Meat can be part of a healthy diet just as a healthy diet can be meatless,” he says.
