I've been trying to add as many vegetables into my diet as I can lately, as those (and protein) seem to be the hardest for me to get enough of. I can down carbs like no other, but with the vegetables I have to make a conscious effort. I try to get one green one a day, which ends up being either zucchini or spinach. Luckily, they are both good sauteed with a few hefty dashes of Johnny's Seasoning Salt.

I've also been inspired by reading what Trainer Momma has to say about fitness, nutrition and balancing it all.

What about you? Do you have any tricks to getting your vegetables in? I would love to hear them!

You need to make a cookbook, seriously. Every time you post about food, I look down at what I'm eating and think, "ick!" Like right now :) I love veggies, but have a hard time thinking about them, too. I try to pick meals that have veggies in them or that can be easily added to. Spaghetti (my kids love it, so I just add more veggies to the sauce), scrambled eggs with green peppers, onions, tomatoes. Hmm. I know there's more, but I can't think of them now.
