Eagan Boot Camp Instructors and Nutritionist Show You How to Get More Fruits and Veggies in Your Diet To Help You Lose Fat Fast
We are realists, and know that if we’re going to get the recommended 8-10 servings of fruit and veggies each day, it’s going to require getting a little creative.
And perhaps you’ve found yourself in a similar situation, having a desire to eat more veggies (for their million and one health benefits), but struggling to do so.
Well, that’s what today’s blog post is all about, my friend! Three simple, creative ways we tell our weight 
loss and personal training clients to get more veggies in and boost the healthfulness of their diet:
1. Mix Veggies in Omelets & Casseroles – If you’re wanting to eat more vegetables, but aren’t really keen on their taste, a great way to “disguise” them is in omelets and casseroles. Add mushrooms, spinach, peppers, tomatoes, carrots, green beans, and whatever else might go well with the dish you’re preparing. This is a great way to get the kids to eat their veggies, too!
2. Use Raw Veggies as a Late Night Snack - Who doesn’t get late night cravings? Everyone does! And the best way to satisfy those cravings is with raw veggies as they are very low in calories, high in fiber, and have a negligible impact on blood sugar and insulin. And if you’re not crazy about plain raw vegetables, dip ‘em! Try carrot sticks in salsa or broccoli in light Italian dressing.
3. Puree then Mix – Here’s a quick way to add a ton of veggies to a meal virtually unnoticed. Simply throw a bunch of veggies into the food processor, puree, and then mix the puree into ground beef. Use this little trick for meatloaf, burgers, taco meat, or any other recipe calling for ground beef!
Remember, you can’t out exercise a bad diet! Work hard and eat smart, just like our super success stories did.
Another one you might consider is getting a vitamix. It’s a commercial blender, and no it’s is nothing like a regular blender. It’s an investment cause they aint cheap, but well worth the investment. We use ours everyday.
