Setting goals for the New Year? How about eating all those fruits and veggies you buy instead of leaving them in the fridge to die a long agonizing death. If you listen closely near the fridge, you can probably hear them "help me...heeeelp me". Joking.

Seriously though, make the most of your dollars and your health by prepping fruits and veggies in advance. Washing and slicing up your goods while you've got the energy makes sure that they're ready to go whenever you need them.

Raise your hand if the thought of making dinner every night makes you want to go back to bed. 🤚

FIBER - FIBER - FIBER!

Who would've thought the CDC has some healthy eating advice? Well they sure do, and it's some solid info (see what I did there...fiber...solid 😂)

"Fiber helps maintain digestive health and helps us feel fuller longer. Fiber also helps control blood sugar and lowers cholesterol levels. Fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds are good sources of fiber.

To bump up fiber, try this:

Slice up raw vegetables to use as quick snacks. Storing celery and carrots in water in the refrigerator will keep them crisp longer.

Start your day off with a whole grain cereal like oatmeal or food made with bulgur or teff. For even more fiber, top your cereal with berries, pumpkin seeds, or almonds.

Add half a cup of beans or lentils to your salad to add fiber, texture, and flavor.

Enjoy whole fruit—maybe a pear, apple, melon slice or passion fruit—with a meal or as dessert."

Tips for increasing intake of dietary fiber, calcium, vitamin D, and potassium while consuming less added sugar, saturated fat, and sodium.
