Need More Veggies? Easy Fix!
"Protein, Produce and Water!"
You probably already know that you should consume 8-10 servings of vegetables and fruits every day for massive health benefits. You also probably know you’re falling way short of that. Here are a few simple and creative ways to get more veggies in your diet.
1.) Mix Veggies in Your Eggs, Omelets or Casseroles.
Every morning I make eggs for our family. I may switch up the style (scrambled, wraps, omelets, frittata, muffins, etc.) but I always incorporate veggies somehow.
Scrambled Eggs (makes 2 servings)
4 Large Farm Fresh Eggs
1 Cup Chopped Spinach
2 Ounces Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
Microwave some steam fresh veggies and add them to your scrambled eggs!
Green Giant Eggs
1 Cup Cooked (Frozen Green Giant Antioxidant Blend veggies)
4 Large Farm Fresh Eggs
2 Ounces Shredded Pepper Jack Cheese
The Whites
4 Large Egg Whites
2 Ounces Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
2 Tbs. Natural Salsa
2.) Use Raw Veggies as a Late Night Snack.
Try these simple, healthy suggestions:
- Celery with all-natural peanut butter or almond butter (the only ingredients should be nuts and salt!)
- Carrot sticks and Greek yogurt (add chives, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt)
You can make a healthy pizza using Lavash and plenty of veggies!
3.) Puree Your Veggies Add Them to Tons of Different Meals.
They will go virtually unnoticed in meatloaf, burgers, taco meat, chili, Lavash pizza or spaghetti. You can also make a variety of healthy stews and soups as well!
