3 ways to get more veggies WITHOUT salads

Tips for eating more vegetables!

#1 Use them as snacks: Broccoli, carrots, sweet peppers, cherry tomatoes, etc prep them, pack them in zip lock baggies and they're ready for you to grab and go!

#2 Hide them in your shakeology! You won't even taste 1 cup of spinach in your shakeology, OR add in a power greens boost and you'll get a dense dose of greens!

#3 Bake them up! I LOVE Kale Chips! You can also do zucchini chips or cauliflower baked up in the oven :) kale and zucchini you can do 10 minutes, at 350 with a tiny bit of olive oil and sea salt or garlic salt, flip them at 5 minutes and you're good :) Cauliflower takes just a bit longer 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes with a dash of salt and pepper <---don't knock it till you try it :) YUM! 

Which ways will you try out to get in more veggies?
