Summer is the perfect time to improve your diet by increasing the number of fruits and vegetables you eat. Vegetables straight from the garden are crisp and delicious. Try increasing your vegetable intake by snacking on fresh veggies with dip or fresh salsa with chips.
Salads are also a great way to increase your vegetable intake. Salads made with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, peas, and other veggies make a refreshing lunch or dinner, just remember to go easy on the dressing.
Fruit is delightful in the summer because it helps to quench your thirst on a hot day. Not only is fresh fruit wonderful, but you can also make smoothies, Popsicles, salads, desserts, parfaits, etc.
