Nutrition Month
😀 March is Nutrition Month and this tip is presented by dietitian @SueMahRD in partnership with Canadian Food Focus.
🥦 Try eating one EXTRA vegetable every day!
Recent data from the Canadian Risk Factor Atlas (by Public Health Agency of Canada) shows that almost 71% of adults have low fruit and vegetable consumption. In other words, less than 30% of us are getting enough!
Veggies provide fibre and a wide range of important nutrients like vitamin A, vitamin C, folate, potassium and magnesium.
Here are a few ideas to up your veggie intake:
🥕 Add diced carrots to a smoothie!
🍄 Add sliced mushrooms to an omelet!
🥗 Add diced beets to a salad!
🥬🌽 What other ideas do you have? 🥒🫑🍆
