10. Avo, Not Mayo!

The Trick:

Replace mayonnaise with avocados in recipes like burritos, sandwiches, burgers, salads, etc.

Why It Works:

Mayonnaise, although a very commonly used ingredient in most American households, isn’t exactly high on the health factor. Since the main objective of mayonnaise is to provide creaminess in a dish, you can replace it with avocados which will give you the same result! Not only does this fruit add flavor and texture to your dish, it contains plenty of mono saturated “healthy” fats, similar to nuts and olive oil.
