If you want to eat healthier and lose weight, a fridge makeover may be just what you need. Keeping these foods on-hand will help you make smart choices when you're tired, busy, or craving junk.

Nut Butters
Smear them on whole-grain toast, add them to smoothies, or slather them on apple slices for a quick snack that will keep you full.

Lemon
Squeeze lemon into your water or tea to jazz up your drink without adding calories. Might we suggest keeping a pitcher of this cucumber, ginger, and lemon detox water in your fridge to stay hydrated and energized.

Greek Yogurt
Instead of opting for a high-calorie dessert, grab a helping of Greek yogurt topped with fruit. Greek yogurt also makes a healthy replacement for sour cream, butter, or any of these other ingredients you an substitute Greek yogurt for.

Eggs
Keeping a few hard-boiled eggs in your fridge makes having a healthy, protein-filled breakfast effortless.

Hummus
The high-protein dip is great with veggies for a low-calorie snack, and you can use it in place of salad dressing or mayo. Buy a tub, or get creative and make your own flavorful hummus recipes.

Baby Spinach
Baby spinach is an easy way to add nutrients to almost any meal. Throw it on pizza, pasta, sandwiches, soups—basically anything—for a dose of vitamin A and other nutrients.
