Non-dairy "milks," like Provamel's extensive range of soya milks and rice drinks, can be used in place of cow's milk on cereal, in baked goods and sauces and even in "milkshakes." Many varieties of soya milk are fortified with calcium and other nutrients, and some are low fat. Soya-based cheeses such as Scheese and Cheezly are terrific on pizzas or grilled "cheese" sandwiches. For an easy lunch, try topping a baguette with Fromsoya's soft cheese, or grab a cup of Provamel's fruity soya yogurts. When the urge for ice cream hits, reach for a tub of Swedish Glace or Tofutti. Other dairy-free treats include Provamel soya dessert in chocolate, caramel and vanilla and Fry's Orange, Peppermint and Chocolate Creams.

Instead of
|
|
Butter
|
Sauté in water or vegetable broth, use lemon for dressing or switch to vegetable margarines and oils.
|
|
Ice Cream
|
Try frozen desserts like Swedish Glace, Tofutti, fruit sorbets and ices. You'll never want to go back to the cholesterol and saturated fat of ice cream.
|
|
Milk
|
Try chocolate, vanilla, almond, and plain soya milk. Excellent for cooking, on cereal, in coffee and hot chocolate use it any way you'd use milk. Comes in low-fat varieties too.
|
|
Cheese
|
Check health food stores for soya cheese, which is great on pizza, in sandwiches and in sauces. You can also make a great, creamy "cheese" sauce using Engevita yeast flakes.
