I try my hardest to get the recommended five to seven\u00a0servings of veggies every single day. I know that seems like a lot, and it is, but I like to mix them into pretty much every meal and snack to make it easier. I also love to make certain meals or snacks with pretty much all veggies so that I\u2019m crossing off multiple servings in one meal.<\/p>\n<p>These meals don\u2019t have to take hours to make either &#8212; I love to roast tons of veggies at once or blend up a smoothie or juice batch to save for the rest of the week. I\u2019m all about things that are quick and easy to take with me before a workout or whenever!<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll break it down into each meal and how I add more veggies into every part of my day! P.S. I\u2019m currently doing an elimination diet and not eating everything listed below, but these have (and might again at one point once I realize what I\u2019ll add back into my diet) been on my meal plan before.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Breakfast<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Eggs: mixing veggies like mushrooms and spinach into omelettes<\/li>\n<li>Ezekiel bread: toast one slice of Ezekiel bread and top with hummus\/avocado sprouts, tomatoes, onions<\/li>\n<li>Smoothie: blend frozen berries, a couple handfuls of a green (kale, spinach, etc.), coconut water, a frozen banana, cucumber, and then I\u2019ll add some chia seeds, flax, whatever else I want!<\/li>\n<li>Acai bowls: I\u2019ll blend a bunch of kale into my acai bowl. You can\u2019t even taste it! Especially when you add peanut butter \ud83d\ude09<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Lunch<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Veggie wrap: basically any veggies I want (lettuce, cucumber, carrots, etc.) mixed with chicken\/turkey, hummus in a pita wrap, rice wrap, or lettuce wrap<\/li>\n<li>Salad: if I\u2019m out to eat, I\u2019ll order a <em>big<\/em>\u00a0salad or will order different types of veggies as sides. This is an easy way to just fully load up on veggie servings!<\/li>\n<li>Cauliflower fried rice: great substitute for rice and tastes delicious (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rrayyme.com\/rrayyme-blog\/2016\/8\/13\/easy-cauliflower-fried-rice-recipe\" target=\"_blank\">see my recipe here<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Dinner<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Veggie roasts: I\u2019ll cut up seasonal veggies (sweet potato and cauliflower are great right now) and pour a little olive oil, S&amp;P and cayenne and roast them at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes &#8212; this is such a simple side.<\/li>\n<li>Pasta: make quinoa pasta (yum! I love the Trader Joe\u2019s one) with basil, tomatoes, eggplant, artichoke hearts, spinach, and toss it with extra virgin olive oil and S&amp;P for a easy, basic, healthy, and yummy dinner!<\/li>\n<li>Veggie Soup: blend up veggies you have in the house with coconut milk for a creamy and delicious soup! One of my favorites is edamame &amp; spinach soup or cinnamon butternut squash. Yum!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I like to make sure my dinner is \u2154 veggies and the rest protein! That seems like a lot, but having that mindset is a very healthy approach to dinner \u2014 plus it fills you up!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Snacks<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Carrots, cucumber, and celery and hummus<\/li>\n<li>Gluten Free crackers, hummus, sprouts, cucumber, spice, and sesame seeds<\/li>\n<li>Roasted kale chips<\/li>\n<li>Spring rolls, yum!<\/li>\n<li>Green juice: you\u2019ve probably seen me share this on Snapchat, but I\u2019m a huge fan of making a <em>ton<\/em>\u00a0of green juice and storing it all week. I\u2019ll have a huge glass as a snack.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>xx, Remi<\/p>\n<p><em>For the latest and greatest info on health and fitness, be sure to check out\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rrayyme.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">rrayyme.com<\/a><\/em>!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>This story was written by a fab member of our\u00a0Ambassador Network.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":"Hi guys!\u00a0Today I want to talk about all things vegetables\u00a0and more specifically how I eat ...","author":617204,"featured_media":91246,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5,268],"tags":[],"thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/12164259\/download-660x400.jpg","thumbnail_url_middle_card":"https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/12164259\/download.jpg","formated_date":"October 19, 2016","category_name":"Health","category_icon":"https:\/\/d3vodd1ws13xud.cloudfront.net\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/10113835\/health-2.svg","author_name":"","trending":false,"sponsored":false,"random_color":"#f298c6","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91222"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/617204"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=91222"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91222\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/91246"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91222"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=91222"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=91222"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
