For example? Don't settle for the same old peas and carrots when you're working in those nutritious veggies to your calorie budget. Here are some ideas for veggie variety:
Pass on the peas a few nights for:
- broccoli
- spinach
- collards
- turnip greens
Tonight, leave the carrots to the bunnies and munch on:
- sweet potatoes
- winter squash
- pumpkin (yep, it's a veggie!)
And don't forget mushrooms, chickpeas, summer squash and all the other tasty veggies that will mix up your meal plans and keep your diet in balance.
