Saturday's Health Tip

Great way to remember to eat more veggies:

The more accessible vegetables are, the more likely you are to eat them every day. Try tossing a bag of baby carrots into your bag or briefcase to nibble on throughout the day; adding frozen veggies to canned soup; or topping broiled chicken or fish with salsa.

Bonus tips: Add crunch and brilliant green color to salads with snow peas and sugar snap peas -- first cook them briefly, then refresh them under cold running water. Buy ready-to-eat, pre-washed salad greens for convenience.
