�energetic life.Ad More Fruits and Vegetables to Your Grocery CartThe first step to eating more fresh fruits and vegetables is to bring more home. If your intimidated by what to purchase follow the colors of the rainbow and buy what looks appealing to you. When you purchase fresh produce at your local supermarket you will usually find cooking and storing instructions attached to it. Many people have also had great success by purchasing from a coop. An example of a coop can be viewed at www.bountifulbaskets.org. When you purchase from a coop you pay a weekly or biweekly fee and the coop brings you enough fresh fruits and vegetables for that period of time. The basket is usually stocked with a variety of seasonal produce and it is locally grown to boot. Locally grown produce is still fresher and therefore contains more nutrients and requires fewer chemicals. The coop will usually email care and cooking instructions along with tasty recipes shortly after the produce is delivered.Get Prepared to Eat More Fruits and VegetablesWhether you purchase from a coop or a local grocer, the best plan is to cut up and store as much of the produce as you can ahead of time. This is a project made quick and simple with a good kitchen knife and sturdy storage bags. If fruits and vegetables are cut up and ready to go they are more likely to be consumed or added to recipes. Once you have your produce prepared, make it visible. Keep it in a pretty fruit bowl on your counter top, move it to the front of the freezer and stack it on the top shelf of the refrigerator. The more you see it the more you will be tempted to eat it and the more fruits and vegetables you eat the more you will crave.Stock Your Freezer with Fruits and VegetablesHow to Get More Fruits and Veggies in Your Diet
