5 A Day Help

Eat your vegetables! I’ve never had to be told more than once. I’ve always like veggies, but I couldn’t be a vegetarian. (Have you ever seen an overweight vegetarian?) Three servings used to be the norm. Now the USDA says eat five. That’s a good thing. Though you may think it’s a lot, it’s easy to do. I’ll give you some suggestions over the next few days.

Let’s start with breakfast.

• Add fruit to your cereal, oatmeal, waffles or pancakes.
• Punch up you eggs with fresh sliced veggies or some frozen spinach.
• Top whole grain toast with raisins and cinnamon.
• Create your own yogurt flavors with plain yogurt and different of fresh fruit.
• Wrap a banana in a whole wheat flour tortilla with some peanut butter for a quick grab and go meal.
• Don’t forget the juice!
