Read on to find out 5 amazing ways of doing it.

  • Add them to your breakfast.
  • Starting your right is important. Whatever you eat in your breakfast gets assimilated best by your body. So, make sure that you keep it healthy. Hence, adding vegetables to your breakfast is non-negotiable. You can make vegetable poha, upma, green smoothie, mixed vegetable dosa, or stuffed vegetable cheela for breakfast. The fibre and protein will keep you feeling full for a longer period of time, hence, also helping in weight loss.

  • Snack on them.
  • Hummus with vegetable sticks is the most loved snack option. Hummus is not only delicious and creamy, but also has heart-healthy fats, protein, and fibre.

Zucchini is also made up of 95% water, which helps in hydrating your body and keeping your weight in check. They are rich in potassium, vitamin-C, and calcium. You can also make zoodles out of other veggies like carrot, beetroot, cabbage, and parsnip.

  • Make wraps with leaves.
  • Instead of making wraps with refined flour, swap it with leaves. It not only adds a crunch but also a variety of nutrients. You can use lettuce, cabbage rolls, kale, bok choy rolls, banana leaves or swiss chard. Wrapping in leaves will also have the added benefit of being low in calories, hence, helping you keep up with your weight loss goals.

  • Soups are a hearty way to have your veggies. Having soups for dinner keeps your digestive system healthy and aids your detoxification process too.

The antioxidants in vegetables will not only have an anti-inflammatory effect but also will help you in weight management.

Over to you.
Including fruits and vegetables for your health can be made fun, if having them ordinarily becomes pale. But, what’s note-worthy is the effect that they have on your body.
