Eat your Veggies!

The secret to simple healthy food is this: grains and veggies.

I explained a bit about grains one week ago. Today, let's chat vegetables.  

If you really don't know how to make sure you make this happen, then grab yourself a coffee chat with me so we can chat and I can tell you about the ways I can help you commit to it. I have SEVERAL ways! I can teach you to Eat Twice as Healthy in Half the Time. I can schedule you a Pantry Makeover. I can help you go deep in Love Every Bite. 

Let me share with you how I tout the advantages of vegetables in my forth coming book: 


Vegetables: 

Adding a salad or steamed vegetables to a meal is quick and easy way to round the meal out.  Cooking soup is an easy way to create a meal featuring the bounty of the farmer’s market.  Vegetables should be plenty and abundant in your diet.  They are filling and delicious; they are high in fiber and low in fat; most are low in sugar; they are full of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. 

They really add so much to a diet and you can eat so much without ever worrying about whether or not they are healthy.  Vegetables are the one part of any diet that you never have to measure, weigh, or be concerned about over eating. 


And I didn't even go into the health benefits! Vegetables are the staple of most healthy "diets." Anytime or place in the history of the world, they ate vegetables. Except, of course, for modern day industrialized nations. Like ours. Where we suffer from a disastrous array of preventable health ailments... Ahem. Alright, so how can eat more of them??? Just like grains. We have to commit. We have to change our mindset from "it's too hard" to "hell yeah I wanna live forever!"

(You know, not really. But I do wanna feel great and look my best and be as healthy as I can as long as I can!!! And veggies help with all of that!!!)

Okay, Alegra. HOW????

Well, if you are familiar with "Eat Twice as Healthy in Half the Time" - the first step is chop veggies. It's really three steps: Buy them and chop them and use them. Still. I know you can do that. 


So go ahead and hop back on Pinterest and find one recipe with veggies. Easy!   And then chop TWICE as many veggies as what it calls for, and use up the leftovers in an other meal the next day!! You've just doubled your veggies consumption.
