5 a Day :) -
April 7th 2011, 04:32 PM
Wasn't completely sure whether to stick this here or in my other forum but I'm going to go with here for now
 Basically, I noticed quite a few have been posting and wanting to lose weight healthily and it's important to eat right in order to do that, yeah? We all know we should be getting out 5 a day but I know for me, I find it hard sometimes, I don't always feel like having a plate of vegetables for dinner  So I thought that we could share recipes and ideas for yummy ways to get 5 a day

What's five a day?
 I feel like a newb.  I was looking for a breath of life For a little touch of heavenly light But all the choirs in my head say, no oh oh |

"Five a day" is a term for five portions of fruit and veg a day
Nutritionists say that's the number people should eat per day Here's a video I found not too long ago: http://www.videojug.com/film/the-eatwell-plate You don't have to have a ridiculous amount of fruit and veg on your plate for every meal. A good cheat is drinking a fruit smoothie

I love fruit smoothies they are so yummy! I try and add vegatables to what I am making when I am cooking something, which hopefully adds a bit more to my 5 a day!
Soon... Now will be then...Today will be yesterday... Present will be past...And thought will be memory... So...Live for the future! Make your future how you want it!

One of my favorite ways to work veggies into my diet is to mixed some steamed veggies into my pasta. Another is just cutting up a banana on top of my breakfast cereal.

I'm pretty good when it comes to getting my five a day because my mum uses vegetables a lot in her cooking and I'm absolutely fruit bonkers. I usually chop up fruit and put it on the top of porridge for a healthy breakfast.

I make fresh fruit salad in the morning and have some throughout the day (:
Apple + plum + grapes + peach + tangerine + grapefruit (+ whatever else I can find!) - I add 1/2 of the grapefruit sliced up, the other 1/2 is juiced & mixed with the salad. Grapefruit juice acts as an anti-browning agent, so the apple slices don't change colour! Frozen banana slices are also delicious and a healthy snack (: |

I add veggies into whatever I'm cooking for dinner. Tonight I had sausage casserole and it had onions, celery, carrots, peas, leeks and potatoes in it. I basically tend to go for one-pot meals that I can chuck extra veg into so I don't have to use too many pots and pans

You could actually get 2 of your 5 a day in a smoothie. A whole banana and good few strawberries
