Here’s your daily reminder to EAT YOUR GREENS & here are some easy ways to do so!
- use lettuce wraps instead of buns for burgers, guac, pesto, mashed chickpeas, black beans, tacos, ground meats & veggies
- add them to your smoothies
- have an afternoon green juice
- make a side salad with all your meals or have a salad as a snack with some nuts or seeds
- cut up green veggies for an afternoon snack & have some guac, hummus or Dijon as dip!
- sauté any leftover greens you have in the fridge so they don’t go to waste & you can serve them as a side with your meals
- wash & prep your greens and veggies when you do groceries so that they’re ready when you want them in a hurry & less tempted to go for packaged foods
- throw some greens into your recipes ALWAYS: omelettes, frittatas, chilis, stir fry, stews, soups, sandwiches, etc. They shrink to just about nothing anyway & add tons of flavour & health benefits!
- add chlorophyll to lemon water in the AM or to smoothies
- add green superfood powders into smoothies, baked or raw treats or oats/chia pudding: matcha, chlorella, spirulina, moringa are some of my faves!
- make kale or cabbage chips à la (LilSipper has an amazing recipe for cabbage chips & search for my recipes for kale chips on the homepage or click here for my fave ones: Garlicky Cheesy Crispy Kale Chips In 20 Minutes!
- roast a big batch of veggies on Sundays so you always have them ready as needed!
- munch on romaine when you’re craving something crunchy!
