Ways to add more Fruits and Veggies to your Day




With the increase of over processed foods being cheap and readily available, you might easily forget that your body needs nutrients from fruits and vegetables. A wise option is to plan your meals ahead of time, this way you are able to incorporate the healthy foods your body needs. Also omega-3 fats are an important component, as they improve and promote brain functioning. You can find omega-3 fatty acids in vegetables but another, more meaty way to get in your daily requirement is from Flodins award-winning Omega-3 Pork. It is easy to prepare, delicious and has 4 times more Omega-3 fatty acids compared to conventional pork. Read on for more ways to add fruits and veggies to your day.

Veggies and Fruit for Breakfast
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day since it powers you up for a great day ahead. It is easy to get healthy vitamins and minerals into your breakfast by making a green smoothie. This is a smoothie made from two parts vegetables, such as kales, spinach or cucumber and any fruit of your choice such as banana, mango, pineapple or even some berries if you like, then blend that with some liquid of your choice and you are good to go! You can also add fruit to cereal or morning oats(ever heard of overnight oats?). Easy and delicious!

Snacking
Healthy snacking is important since it keeps you from eating huge meals, which could contain empty calories that are bad for your health. A healthy snack can be a mixed salad of any vegetables of your choice or even a fruit salad. These are packed with good vitamins that your body will thank you for. You can also do a single fruit if you do not have time to make or pick up a salad.

Veggies During Lunch
You don’t have to always have a salad for lunch, but if you’re comfortable with it then, by all means, go ahead. Try powering up with healthy protein like Flodins Omega-3 Pork, and serve this with a side salad for a complete and nutritious meal. You can prepare this in the morning if you are leaving for work, and then simply warm the pork up during lunch.

A Delicious Fruity Dessert
Dessert does not always have to be sugary and unhealthy; you can still enjoy a yummy, healthy dessert that adds to your daily vitamin requirement. Try some plain, frozen yoghurt topped with a handful of berries and nuts to make a healthy yet delicious treat. Add a little honey is more sweetness is needed. You also have the option to blend this up into a smoothie.

Eating healthy is not really that difficult as long as you stay committed to it and be creative. Always opt to have fruits and veggies prepared and ready to eat- so you can reach for them first whenever you are feeling hungry.  Or cook up some Omega-3 Pork for a main course, sandwich on the go or whatever you’re in the mood for. The high quality fat in Flodins Omega-3 Pork is distributed throughout the meat, which makes it more tender, tasty and full of the mouth-watering juices that make every meal delicious!
