Not everyone enjoys eating their veggies. However, it is an essential part of leading a healthy lifestyle. Here are 10 creative and tasty ways for you to incorporate greens into your everyday life.

1. Smoothies

Smoothies are a fantastic way to sneak veggies, such as spinach, kale, and carrots into your body without tasting them at all!

2. Baked Goods

Zucchini, carrots, and spinach all fare very well in baked goods. If you've never tried chocolate chip zucchini bread, you need to!

3. Oatmeal

Adding zucchini to your oatmeal can give it a great new texture!

4. Pasta

Whether you put veggies in marinara sauce or put your classic broccoli in mac and cheese, adding veggies to pasta is an easy and delicious way to make your pasta dishes even more nutritious!

5. Kale Chips

These babies are so tasty that you'd never know they're veggies. Some olive oil, salt, and pepper are all you need before popping them in the oven!

6. Rice

I'm talking veggie rice. Cauliflower and broccoli both make great alternatives to regular rice!

7. Zoodles

Zoodles, also known as zucchini noodles, are another great replacement for a classic food. Zoodles can replace pasta in many of the dishes you love, and you won't even know the difference!

8. Eggs

Omelettes and scrambles are a great way to incorporate veggies, like spinach, peppers, and onions into your daily breakfast!

9. Juices

Similar to smoothies, by combining veggies with other fruits in the juicer, you can create some really tasty beverages!

10. Pizza

Who doesn't love pizza? Top it with your choice of veggies to make a great thing even better!

So, there you have it! 10 creative and tasty ways to help you incorporate more greens into food you eat everyday! Enjoy!

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
