Eating healthy is hard. Temptations are literally everywhere and every time you say you're going to start eating right, two days into it you give up. Not only is eating healthy hard, but it's super boring. Sorry, I don't want a salad for every meal, and yes I want cheese, lots and lots of cheese. Honestly, if I could survive on carbs and coffee, I would. However, there are some alternatives for everyday foods that taste pretty good! Here are a couple recipes that anyone can make!

1. Cauliflower Crust Pizza

Yes, you can in fact substitute the crust of pizza for cauliflower, and it tastes pretty good too! Replacing the flower with cauliflower reduces the carbs that you'd be eating, and its gluten free! Plus this recipe is loaded with protein. Find the recipe here! http://www.hungry-girl.com/recipe-makeovers/show/healthy-cauliflower-crust-pizza-recipe

2. Baked Donuts

I think I love donuts more than I love life. The only problem is that I would never allow myself to eat them because they're literally the worst food you can eat. However, some creative genius answered my prayers and came up with this magical recipe: baked donuts. There are multiple recipes and flavors to choose from, ranging as low as 191 calories. Find the recipe here! http://www.health.com/health/gallery/0,,20418786,00.html

3. Ice Cream



I have done an entire article on this stuff before and ill continue to live by it. 240 calories per pint, 60 calories per serving and it tastes like heaven. Packed with protein and less than half the sugars of other brands, you need to try this stuff for yourself. It's available in stores and for more information, find their website here! http://www.halotop.com

4. Chips


I've eaten family sized bags of chips in one sitting while watching T.V. too many times to count. They're addicting and you cannot just have one. They aren't very filling so you can just keep eating them. There are tons of healthy alternatives for regular potato chips such as sweet potato chips, whole wheat tortilla chips, apple chips, banana chips and more. For other options and recipes, click here! http://greatist.com/health/healthy-chip-alternatives

5. Pancakes


Two ingredient banana pancakes. Yes, I said two ingredients. I don't think it gets much easier than this. Literally two eggs and a banana, then you're good to go! You get four to five pancakes for under 300 calories, and it takes around 10 minutes to make. If you don't believe me, click here for the recipe! http://www.food.com/recipe/2-ingredients-eggs-banana-pancakes-501408Yo

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.
