We are all familiar with the “5-A-Day” and “Strive for Five” campaigns. We are supposed to eat at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day. I usually am pretty good about that, but my vegetable consumption hit a low over the holidays. Now that I am getting back on track, here are five ways I enjoy eating more vegetables.
1. I add a handful of spinach to my chocolate protein smoothie.
2. I add extra vegetables to my Eggbeaters® omelets.
(Check out other vegelicious omelet ideas here)
3. I pack a salad for lunch at work.
4. I bring a baggie of raw veggies to crunch on at work.
5. I make dinner recipes with lots of vegetables
Do you eat 5 a day?

I probably eat 12 a day since going vegan 🙂
I always put a layer (a LARGE LAYER lol) of Spinach down on my plates before I plate the rest of my meal… I always get an extra 2-5 cups of leafy greens that way… I never have a problem with getting a bunch of veggies though, I am a veggie wh***. LOL! Actually, I think I eat TOO MAN veggies! Ah ha ha!!
I've been throwing spinach into everything lately so I think I've got it! 🙂 Could probably do with a few more though (or at least a little variety hehe)
It can be a real challenge to eat 5 different veggies a day — keeps you from double counting those salads!
Lately I've been adding a thick layer of spinach to my plate before serving my food. This has helped with dinner & lunch. Sometimes I snack on raw veggies….I need to get better about this!
