Vegetables...Eww..(Actually They Aren't That Bad)

The first thing some people may do when they hear the word vegetable is think salads, or slightly throw up in their mouth. They really aren't that bad. As long as you eat a variety of them. The key is to eat plenty green leafy vegetables. These have more of the minerals and good stuff. But nothings wrong with some peppers and onions. Here are some sneaky and delicious ways to get in veggies....

1) LEMONS
Try squeezing a half of lemon on your vegetables and this will make a world of difference! (Plus lemons have specials acids that burn fat in your tummy).

2) Eat with something else
Try saving that daily slice of wheat bread and eating it with vegetables. I like to spread Apple Butter on my bread, (1 table spoon only 30 calories!) plus thats a fruit, its apple! Or try eating a few slices of turkey or ham with your usual bowl of broccoli. Or try slicing some peppers, onions, mushrooms to put in an egg omelet. Because, who eats just peppers or onions alone anyways??

3) Spinach Dip
So today I was eating some Ritz Crackers and spinach dip. I looked at the back of the jar and saw the ingredients, in this order- Water, Spinach...and I said to myself..hey, spinach, its a vegetable! So this is going to be my new little midnight snack, crackers and spinach dip!

4) Microwave-It
Lets be honest, who wants to sit down and cook and splice veggies before you eat them. Well you don't have to. Buy some already frozen brussel sprouts, broccoli, or try Giant Green- Sweet Corn, Vegetable Meddly, Broccoli & Alfredo, Broccoli & Patatoes. Make it quick and simple!
