Hey there, I want to show you some of my favorite dairy-free alternatives that I keep stocked in my fridge and my freezer. First up, yogurts, because I love you eating fermented food. This Siggi's in particular, fabulous coconut yogurt, only 4 grams of sugar but 11 grams of protein. Probiotic cashew milk yogurt has only got 1 gram of sugar. Next up, I love making lasagna and I use these Capello's almond noodles, and then I use this Almond Ricotta. There's also almond cream cheese. And if you love a little bit of sour cream on your potato, Forager Sour Cream for the win. So here's some simple things that you can do that will make it so that you never miss the dairy if you're dairy intolerant. So what about you? What dairy-free alternatives have you found? Share them in the comments. I'd love to know.
