Veggie Mania

My husband's employer has this great wellness program that encourages you to set goals to help you achieve a healthy lifestyle.  This last month we have focused on eating 5 servings of fruits and vegetables-- not unrealistic, but not a cake walk either.  My problem: I kept forgetting to pull out the bag of carrots to munch on when I felt munchie... so here is my solution...

Behold the VEGGIE BASKET

Each baggie contains 1-3 servings of vegetables in easy to grab glory.  Some bags are a mixture of veggies and some are just plain carrots or broccoli.

Check out the prime location of the veggie basket in the fridge (please ignore all the leftovers...)

FYI  One serving of veggies is equal to 9  baby carrots, 10 grape tomatoes, 2 ribs of celery, or 6 broccoli flowerettes.  Mix and match to make a cornucopia of vegetable fun and add a mini container of ranch or onion Greek yogurt dip and you are good to go!

Happy Healthy Eating
