FINDING IT HARD TO EAT YOUR DAILY FRUIT AND GREENS?

We can help! Here are 5 simple tips to sneak fruits and veggies into your day.

1. Dips, Not Chips
Try baby carrots or sugar snap peas with a side of hummus. Carrots are rich sources of beta-carotene and fibre, and sugar snap peas are known for their abundant Vitamin C content.

2. Go Nutty
Not a fan of hummus? Try pairing chopped celery and baby carrots with around two tablespoons of peanut or almond butter. Nut butters are rich sources of Vitamin E, which functions as an antioxidant in our bodies.

3. Power Up with a Smoothie!
Maybe you’re not a fan of eating raw vegetables. Don’t worry, you’re certainly not alone! Blending up an array of vegetables and fruits into a delicious smoothie could be the answer.

4. Toss it Up
Kale. You may have heard people refer to kale as a superfood, and for good reason! Kale is loaded with Vitamins A, K, and C, and is even a source of Calcium. You can toss kale with a light vinaigrette, fresh fruit such as blueberries or clementine slices, and even some sliced almonds to create a balanced homemade salad.

5. A Perfect Parfait
Trying to incorporate more fruit into your daily diet? Greek yogurt parfaits are a healthy and delicious option that you can create with a few simple ingredients at home! Blend a ¼ cup of fresh fruit such as strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries into a cup of plain or vanilla-flavored Greek yogurt. If you need a little crunch, sprinkle some of your favourite granola or chopped nuts on top.
