We all know water is the best way to stay hydrated, but another great way is to actually eat foods with lots of water in them. The key to finding hydrating foods is finding foods with high water percentages (shocking, I know!), but putting a finger on those exact foods might be more work than we really want to get into. Andddd that’s why I have Whipped’s new bestie, and resident registered dietitian, Ashley, doing the grunt work 🙂 Thanks Ashley!

Here’s a quick list of some great foods to help keep you hydrated!

Whole fruits and veggies are best, try any of these (all are comprised of at least 80% water);

Eat Your Drink Cucumber Herb Veggie Dip “Tzatziki” Tips :

Drain the cucumber well: this is the key to avoiding a watery dip. Always squeeze out extra moisture.

Use full fat Greek yogurt: it makes the dip creamier and thicker. You can use low fat if you prefer, but it might be runnier.

Make ahead of time: the dip tastes even better the next day after sitting in the fridge.

Experiment with herbs: dill is classic, but mint and parsley give it a fun twist.

Kid friendly tip: if garlic is too strong for kids, skip it or use just a tiny amount.

Shortcut: if you don’t want to grate cucumbers, finely dice them instead it’s faster.
