• Wake up to fruit! Make a habit of drinking juice, or complementing cereal, yogurt, or pancakes with naturally sweet sliced or dried fruit.

• Try some “grate” ways. Add grated, shredded, or chopped vegetables, such as zucchini, spinach, and carrots to pasta, meatloaf, potatoes, meat or grain dishes.

• Be saucy with fruit. Puree berries, apples, peaches, or pears, for a thick sweet sauce on grilled or broiled seafood or poultry.

Get Creative!Get Creative!• Get creative with pizza. Order or make it

“deluxe” with vegetable toppings: broccoli, carrot shreds, thinly sliced zucchini, chopped spinach, peppers, tomatoes, or any other veggies.

• Drink juice as a snack beverage. Try a

variety of juices: grapefruit, apple, cranberry, orange, grape, papaya, tomato, and mango juices.

• Bake with fruits and vegetables. Use pureed fruit, such as applesauce, prunes, bananas, or peaches, in place of about half the fat in recipes for homemade breads, muffins, pancakes, cookies, and other baked goods. For flavor, texture, and nutrients blend in shredded zucchini, carrots, or dried fruits.

Get Creative!Get Creative!• “Sandwich” in fruit and vegetables. Add

pizzazz to sandwiches by including sliced pineapple, apple, peppers, cucumbers, sprouts, and tomato as filings.

• Combine it with veggies. Make a quick stir-fry or combine pasta with just about any vegetables. Or add them to soups.

• Take a fruit to lunch. Make a habit or tucking apples, tangerines, plums, kiwis, grapes, cherries or other fruits into your purse or briefcase.

• Stuff an omelet with veggies. Turn your omelet into a hearty meal with crisp, tasty veggies like broccoli, squash, carrots, peppers, tomatoes, or onions.

• Toss up a vegetable salad. Add extra cut-up vegetables, legumes, and fruits to salads.

• When you eat out, order more fruits and vegetables. Choose a vegetable appetizer or soup. Order a side dish of vegetables, legumes, or a salad with a meal, or fruit for dessert.

Get Creative!Get Creative!• Count you beans. If you consume enough protein-

rich foods from the meat, poultry, fish, dry beans, eggs and nuts group, legumes can count as a serving from the vegetable group. Try adding cooked beans, peas, or lentils to salads, casseroles, and pasta dishes.

• Make dips and spreads with vegetables and fruit. Spicy salsas can be made with tomato, bell peppers, onions, and cilantro. For a tangy twist, also look for salsas with pineapple, mango, or peaches. Try hummus, made with mashed chickpeas; or caponata; or baba ghanoush, made with eggplant.

• Stock your ‘fridge with raw vegetables and fruits – “nature’s fast food” – cleaned, fresh, and ready to eat.
