Don't Get Stuck on Boring Food

Sometimes, when people think about eating healthy they think that it is boring. Just eating bags of lettuce and drinking water. But, you have to understand, eating healthy is fun! You can make it colorful, creative, yummy, and super good for you! You just have to take the time to learn how to cook!

Here are some ways that I make my food fun and yummy:

• Embrace your colorful food-this dosen't mean M&Ms, I mean fruits and veggies.  Adding lots of colorful veggies to your food dosen't JUST add nutrients, vitamins and fiber to your meal, it adds color, texture and interest. Try to not go just all green, but add your yellows, purples, reds, oranges, and pinks.

• Shoot for Texture! Texture is one of my favorite things about food. Adding veggies, rice, or (one of my personal favorites) barley to meals adds a great dimension.

• Don't just add salt, experiment with other seasonings. We get to comfortable with just salt and pepper.  Mix it up, reach for the cumin, chilli powder, or fresh garlic.  Try those herbs like parsley, sage, and cilantro. You will be amazed at how just a little shake of spices and herbs can bring your food to a whole new level!

• If you are bored of the same old turkey sandwich for lunch- shake things up a bit.  Make a turkey or chicken salad. Or make soup and toast the bread you would have used for your lunch for toast.

Hope these ideas help, enjoy eating healthy!
