]]> In order to have a healthy balanced diet, it’s important to add fruits and vegetables to your meals. They are full of vitamins and minerals, filling, and can boost your health and fight diseases (especially in cold and flu season.) It’s hard to make sure you are getting enough vegetables throughout your day, but here are four easy ways to help you.

Soups

There is nothing better than a big pot of soup to warm you up in the winter. It is easy to make and you can add any vegetables that you have in your refrigerator. It is also the best way to use up any veggies that are a little wrinkled and don’t need to be wasted. You can add any herbs and spices and put some toasted bread on the side for a filling healthy meal.

Veggie Noodles

Zoodles are a great alternative to spaghetti and they are just as filling and healthier way to eat your bolognese. All you need is a spiralizer and some zucchini, carrots, or sweet potatoes and you have yourself a delicious meal.

Add More Vegetables to Sauces

While you’re cooking sauces for your general meals, like marinara sauce, you can easily add some veggies to the mix, such as onions, carrots, bell peppers, zucchini, and spinach.

Vegetable Omelet

You can add just about anything to your basic omelet to make it more filling. So instead of cheeses, why not try to add some more veggies? Mushrooms, spinach, and bell peppers are all good options for an omelet.

]]> Whether you are plant-based or love Mexican cuisine, beans are a staple in many homes, and there are so many different types and ways to cook them. Beans are full of health benefits, they are rich in fiber and B vitamins and are considered a source of protein.

You can buy dry beans that you soak overnight and then cook them yourself or canned beans, which are a time saver but sometimes lack flavor. Here’s how you cook three of the most popular types of beans.

Black Eyed Peas

Black-eyed peas are not just the name of a band, they are in fact southern staples that have an earthy flavor to complement salty foods. They are good for pregnant women as they have a high amount of folate in them. To cook them you can simmer them in chicken broth and whatever seasonings you love and add some steamed collard greens, this is a great side for any meal.

Chickpeas

Chickpeas are mostly known as the base of hummus but they are actually a fabulous addition to a salad, or as an alternative to croutons. Drizzle them with olive oil and spices and roast them in an oven for 20-30mins and they are ready to eat.

Edamame

Edamame beans are often eaten at Japanese restaurants with lots of salt and lemon juice. They are young soybeans eaten straight from the pod and are truly so simple to make. They can be boiled, steamed, microwaved, baked, or pan-seared and put in salads for more protein.

]]> There are so many easy ways to eat a healthy diet while also enjoying tasty and nutritious meals. And believe us when we say that it’s a lot simpler than making endless lists of what you can and can’t eat. Here are a few easy tricks to make your meals healthier and more nutritious.

Color Your Plate

You’ve probably heard that the more colors on your plate, the healthier and more nutritious your meal will be. The easiest way to eat nutritious meals is to color your plate with plenty of fruits and veggies.

Use Spices

The easiest way to transform your meals and make them more nutritious is by using various spices. Chili powder, cinnamon, turmeric, ginger, cardamom, and other spices can elevate your meals and make them healthier.

Avoid Unhealthy Condiments

Most store-bought condiments are packed with sugar and fat so it’s best to avoid them if you want to prepare healthy meals. If you really want to use condiments, it’s best to stick to those that are healthy such as homemade pesto, hummus, or guacamole.

Eat Whole Grain Products

Including more whole grains into your diet is the easiest way to improve your diet and make it healthier. Whole grain products contain more fiber and other valuable nutrients so they’ll keep you full for longer.
