the swaps that make it work
Crispy crostini or crackers
→ Whole grain crostini (homemade) or seed crackers
Whole grains provide more fiber and stable blood sugar; seeds add minerals and healthy fats that support bone density and steady energy.
Classic garnish (capers, red onion, parsley only)
→ Added pomegranate seeds
Pomegranate is rich in polyphenols linked to reduced hot flash intensity and cardiovascular support; adds natural sweetness without added sugar.
