Fruits And Vegetables
Americans Still Not Eating Enough Fruits And Vegetables according to several new studies. How hard could adding an apple as a snack, a small salad around lunch, and some form of berries after dinner be? I am biased towards apples, as they are readily available in Washington. Any locally produced fruit, the fresher the better, will work.
Down with fast and processed food! However, many lack the time and training to cook food properly. Seattle now has a fair number of “stick this in the oven, then serve” food options, though I have not tried any yet. Also, various International cuisines (Indian, Thai, Chinese) offer tasty variety and good balances of meats to vegetables, for those who eat out more often.
