It depends on what ingredients are in there. Sometimes it even depends on how many calories are in the food/drink. For example, say you had a taco at Taco Bell and you admitted it was unhealthy, how would you change up your recipe of the taco your way? Well, for a start, you can add some tomatoes and chopped lettuce into the taco to make it yummy and healthy. I didn’t think that example made sense with the question so let me try this example. If you had a sandwich that had burger meat, mayonnaise, mustard, and pickles, you would probably notice that it’s unhealthy. Here is where the magic begins. You should probably scrape off part of the mayonnaise and mustard you have on the sandwich because less mustard and mayonnaise, the more healthy it gets, but it’s still yummy though. You should cut the sandwich in half so you can have half of how much calories there are in the whole sandwich you are eating. This is how I believe it worked for me when I was a 13 year old.
It depends on what you are making, if you are making a sandwich with mayonnaise on it, you can use fat free vanilla yogurt and it will taste pretty similar.
There are different ingredients you can change to make things more healthy. For example, using egg beaters instead of real eggs, using skim milk instead of 2% milk or whole milk, using whole wheat products instead of white, using applesauce in place of oils, etc.
