@drsarahballantyne: I love that @cookwithdrbrook focuses on accessible, affordable ways to get more vegetables and other nutrient-dense foods linked with better mental health outcomes! I second all of these options, and also calculated how much paprika equals a serving of red bell pepper! @CookWithDrBrooke #nutrivore #eatyourvegetables #eatyourveggies
As a single person who doesn’t always have a robust appetite, I find frozen veg to be far less wasteful, and I only purchase fresh for specific uses.

Pickled vegetables are also still vegetables. I had the epiphany one day and started adding pickles to my lunch. I struggle to eat veggies, but I LOVE pickles, and it adds variety so I can switch off what I'm eating and get more food in, which is huge if you struggle to eat enough

I got told something that changed my life and now eat more veg. basically if eating the vegetables with other stuff like sauces /dips and "unhealthy" atuff makes you eat more vegetables. just do it - the other stuff doesnt take away that youve eaten vegetables.

my ex fiancee waaaaay back in the 90s used to room with a dietician major who told her that dark lettuce was better than iceberg and my response was "I can't stand the bitterness of dark lettuces...and therefore would barely eat any, while iceberg is delicious and therefore I would get more nutrition out of something I actually eat than I would out of something I wouldn't "

All the better reason to be generous with seasonings. I can't help but think sesame seeds pack a big punch & they're so hearty when toasted.

Vegetables are a culinary term for the part of the flower or plant that we eat. It’s not a botanist or scientific term. Why did I say this? I don’t know.

Iceberg is like.. actually delicious. Besides it feels like a gateway green. Beginner salad lovers often can’t handle the intense flavor of greens. If you like an iceberg salad eat it !! If you like other things more, eat them !

I'd be screwed without frozen vegetables. I'm in Canada. If it's February, the "fresh" broccoli isn't very fresh. It tastes like it was on a truck for a few days, because it was.

I am most excited about the lettuce. where does romaine lettuce fall? I love lettuce and eat a ton of it. I've always been told you would have to eat several heads of lettuce for it to count.
