🇺🇸 Try these 3 tips to eat healthy during Memorial Day 🇺🇸

1. Grill lean proteins: Opt for grilling lean meats like chicken breast, turkey burgers, or fish instead of traditional beef burgers or hot dogs. You can also include plant-based protein options like veggie burgers or tofu.

2. Incorporate plenty of veggies: Prepare a variety of vegetable sides and salads. Grilled vegetables, fresh salads with a light vinaigrette, and vegetable skewers are all great options. You can also add vegetables to your main dishes, like topping burgers with lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado.

3. Choose healthier snacks and desserts: Instead of chips and heavy dips, try healthier snacks like veggies with hummus, fruit platters, or homemade salsa with whole-grain crackers. For dessert, consider fresh fruit salads, yogurt parfaits, or grilled fruits like peaches and pineapple.

We should celebrate this beautiful place we call home every day! Happy Earth Day 🌎

Here are a couple ideas to honor this planet we inhabit:
▶️Reduce your reliance on single-use plastics. This is a big one! Plastic pollution is a major environmental problem, and it's something we can all do our part to address. There are many ways to reduce your use of single-use plastics, such as carrying a reusable water bottle, using reusable shopping bags, and packing your lunch in reusable containers.
▶️ Get outside and appreciate nature. Spending time in nature is a great way to connect with the Earth and learn more about the environment. It's also a great way to relax and de-stress. So take a walk in the park, go for a hike, or simply spend some time sitting in your backyard and enjoying the fresh air.
