This is gonna sound crazy, but it's a favorite for me. If you make chicken salad sandwiches and you use greek yogurt instead of mayo, it almost tastes the same. And it's more protein, so you should try it.

You can use applesauce instead of like vegetable oil. It also can be like a sweetener. So I think there are many things that you can use applesauce for.
My big thing is like cottage cheese and like greek yogurt in place of like creamy sauces um and then also like honey in place of like sweetener but then i'm also not against using like stevia and stuff like that
Recently I have made the switch from like vegetable or canola oil to like pure olive oil. I don't really know why like people say to do that but that's a substitute that I've made for health reasons because the internet told me to so maybe I'll live 10 years longer because of that.
So I'm a big fan of trying to eat healthy and to swap out one food for another. When you make your cake you don't have to use oil. I use one of those little applesauce cups. Just use the ones that are naturally sweetened or the unsweetened applesauce cups and substitute that in your favorite cake recipe for the oil. You can also use yogurt. Greek yogurt works wonderfully as a substitute for oil in baked goods. I also use the thicker Greek yogurt on bagels and bread as a cream cheese substitute. So you can use the Fage Greek yogurt as a substitute for cream cheese. It tastes amazing. I really like Truvia as a sugar substitute. You can sprinkle that on foods if you want it a little bit sweeter too. And you can add the flavor without any extra calories or sugar.
A lot of times recipes will call for butter. A good alternative is olive oil.
I feel like blended fruit like applesauce for example can be a healthy substitute for things like oil and certain recipes. I also think on top of waffles or pancakes a lot of people get you know corn syrup, just kind of syrup that you get at the store that's not pure maple syrup, and I think it's a lot healthier and yummier in my opinion to put applesauce on it. You know no sugar added, just delicious.
