The Natural Way to Eat the Rainbow

When this time of year rolls around it is always a great idea to remind yourself to eat the rainbow by pursing colorful fruits and vegetables. Lean away from the beige food groups and replacing them with bright colors.

A good starting point would be adding vegetables to some of your at-home favorites. Try H3’s Macaroni and Cheese with Broccoli recipe. This recipe hits home with a healthy combo of comfort and colors.

Add color to each meal and by the end of the day you will have a rainbow of colors in your body. Adding colorful fruits and vegetables to your nutrition plan means adding nutrients to your body. The more fruits and vegetables you eat means you’re also consuming more nutrients, thus developing a healthier immune system. Hopefully, leading to no cold or flu this season.



Last weekend Jen Welper, Lindsay Martin and I participated in the ColorVibe 5K. We were happily covered in colored powder, reminding us to have fun, be active and eat the rainbow.
