Creative Ways to Eat More Vegetables
- Add vegetable powders to pancakes, muffins, smoothies and frittatas. I like Dr Cowan’s Threefold Powder Blend. I often put 1 spoonfull in muffin recipes and no one who eats them would ever know!
- Add minced sauteed mushrooms and onions to your burgers. This recipe is a favorite. I will substitute other ground meats like turkey or when feeling adventuresome, wild boar or venison. Serve without the bun if eating less refined carbohydrates. Or use these new sweet potaTOASTS by the maker of Caulipower pizza.
- Cauliflower rice is one of my favorites. I was making it myself with a food processor but since I found a giant bag of Organic cauliflower rice at Costco I have been living off this “harvest.” Substitute for rice in family recipes. I like it for breakfast with 2 fried eggs.
- Green eggs and ham, anyone? Check out this simple way to make green scrambled eggs. Make foods fun for kids, vegetables add natural food dye. Beet powder can turn yogurt pink, turmeric can make a chai tea yellow, etc.
