Simple Swaps for Serious Flavor
(firmenpresse) - MISSION, KS -- (Marketwired) -- 07/08/16 -- (Family Features) From burgers to barbecued chicken, many of the best grilled foods are served with creamy condiments -- often packing on calories and fat. Next time you''re ready to grill, experiment with new ways to create simple but robust flavors using fewer ingredients through simple swaps.
Rice vinegars offer a healthy alternative to condiments like mayonnaise or a creamy dressing when grilling. Keeping meals simple is easy with naturally gluten-free Nakano Rice Vinegar, which includes six or less simple ingredients with no artificial preservatives, flavors or ingredients, and no high-fructose corn syrup or MSG. The brand recently announced a clean-labeling initiative for all of its products, which now have easy-to-read labels with recognizable ingredients.
Dawn Jackson Blatner, star of ABC''s "My Diet Is Better Than Yours," author of "Superfood Swap" and a registered dietitian and nutrition consultant for the Chicago Cubs, has created healthy dishes to heat up the grill this season.
This fall, look for organic Nakano Rice Vinegars debuting at retailers nationwide, and find more recipes at Mizkan.com.
