Add veggies to your breakfast!
If you’re not eating veggies for breakfast, you’re missing out! Whether you’re a sweet or savory person, there are so many ways to incorporate fresh produce in your morning meal. You can add almost any veggie to a frittata, which is perfect for meal prep or using up a lot of veggies you have leftover. You can also add greens like spinach to your morning smoothie! Another idea is to make toast with roasted veggies and an egg on top.

Elevate your current meals!
One of the easiest ways to eat more veggies is to just add them to what you’re already eating. Jazz up pizza night by adding arugula on top or toss in some roasted squash to your next pasta dish! You can add a side of veggies to any meal and it will make it even better! We also love prepping toppings to have ahead of time like pickled veggies and marinated mushrooms.
