5 Simple Steps to Add More Plants Into Your Diet


By adding more plants to your normal routine, you will be increasing the amount of antioxidants, fiber, and nutrients you eat, which is an awesome way  to lean into, or maintain a whole food plant-based lifestyle.  Here are some ideas to help you on your journey:

1. Aim to have at least one piece of fruit with your breakfast and another for a snack during the day.  Try adding berries to your cereal or top your toast with sliced bananas or strawberries (or both).  For a snack, try some blueberries with a small handful of walnuts or an orange with a few pecans.  Even frozen fruit makes a delicious snack.  These snacks are both tasty and satisfying.

2. Make it a goal to have a side salad with your dinner every night.  Load the salad up with colorful vegetables like tomatoes, carrots, broccoli, peppers, and radishes.  This is a great habit for everyone to have and adds a bounty of extra nutrients and fiber to your daily routine.

3. When eating out, ask for the fries or other high fat sides to be replaced with a steamed vegetable.  By doing this simple step, you can cut 350 calories from your plate and boost your health at the same time.

4. Have cut-up vegetables and hummus or dressings  ready when you walk in the door at the end of the day.  Most people are hungry at the end of the day and grab whatever is convenient as soon as they get home.  Having this healthy snack ready and waiting makes your choice an easy one.

5. Make “nice cream”for dessert.  Blending your favorite fruit can make a wonderful and satisfying treat to end your day.  Try blending a frozen banana, 2 teaspoons of cocoa powder, and a little plant milk into a delicious chocolate banana dessert.  You can also blend frozen cherries with the cocoa and plant milk for a treat that tastes like a chocolate covered cherry.
