A Colorful Plate Year-Round
Creating a Vibrant Diet All Year
Eating a diverse range of fruits and vegetables is crucial for maintaining overall health, no matter the season. Even when fresh produce is scarce, you can still enjoy a colorful plate. Here's how:
Embrace the Freezer Aisle
Start with the freezer section, where you can find a variety of fruits like melon cubes, berries, peach slices, and pineapple chunks available throughout the year. Frozen spinach is particularly convenient?"it’s pre-washed, chopped, and ready to add to soups or pasta, offering the same vitamin A and fiber as fresh spinach.
Explore Canned Options
Don’t overlook the canned fruit and vegetable aisle. According to Dr. Barbara Klein, a Food Science and Nutrition professor at the University of Illinois, canned produce retains nutrition comparable to fresh or frozen varieties. Canned pumpkin, apricots, and carrots are excellent sources of vitamin A. In fact, canned pumpkin provides more vitamin A than fresh due to its concentrated form.
Discover Freeze-Dried Fruits
Check out the cereal aisle, where new freeze-drying technology lets manufacturers include berries and other fruits in their products. Sprucing up breakfast with a bowl of Total with Strawberries can be delightful. Add sliced bananas, dried apricot slivers, or a mix of dried berries to enhance flavor and nutritional value. Dried fruits are nutrient-rich, packed with fiber and potassium.
Tips for a Colorful Plate
- Add sliced radicchio, red onion, and yellow peppers to your green salad.
- Sauté frozen spinach with minced onion. Top with pine nuts, golden raisins, and a splash of balsamic vinegar.
- Simmer yellow and red apple slices and pears with apple cider and maple syrup until soft. Sprinkle with crushed Whole Grain Total for a crunchy finish.
- Incorporate frozen mixed vegetables into your favorite soup.
By using these tips and embracing a variety of food options, you can maintain a vibrant diet all year round. Enjoy the benefits of a colorful plate every day!
