3 Fruits and Veggies Tips (Important)

Fruits & Veggies.... Are you getting enough?

It’s recommended that we eat 6-10 fruits and vegetables a day. Here in the States it is reported the actual average of fruits and veggies eaten each day is just 2.

Yup, just 2.

Now, I don’t know where you stand on this, but overall, it really is a sad state of nutritional affairs.

But do not despair! It’s not that tough to get more fruits and veggies in each day.

Here are some super simple tips to get you started:

1) Buy ‘em pre-chopped

Look, I can be lazy, too ;-) There’s nothing wrong with not wanting to go through the hassle of having to chop up fruits and veggies. If you want to buy them pre-chopped go ahead. It’s much better for you than not eating them.

2) Carry ‘em with you

Load up a plastic baggie with your pre-chopped veggies and bring them to work. Seriously, see how easy this can be!

3) Add real fruit to your yogurt

Have some yogurt for breakfast and add some fresh blueberries, raspberries or blackberries. It’s that simple!

Bonus tip: A great way to provide your body with the nutritional foundation you need each day is a Whole Foods based multi-vitamin. I’m a proud Prograde Nutrition partner and they have a terrific product called VGF 25+ that is made from 25 veggies, greens and fruits.

Delicious Chicken Stir-Fry, You need to try it

Lean & Sexy Fitcamp photos 033

Good Evening Everyone, I bet you Lakers fan are having a ball right now. I am Chicago Bulls fan myself, my family all came from there so that’s what I grew up following.

Anyway, I wanted to tell you about a tasty stir fry recipe that I tried today and came out very well! My wife usually does most of the cooking, but she’s out of town right now so I’m stuck here fending for myself.

Luckily I have been working on my cooking skills for a while now. Which leads the recipe I was telling you about. I used chicken, but you can easily substitute with shrimp or steak.

It was very simple to cook and only took about 30 minutes to make and the best thing was it light and it was full of nutrients. Here is the ingredients.

1lbs Boneless Chicken Breast cut into cubes
Bok Choy Cabbage cut into shreds
Baby Spinach (put in as much as you like)
Green Onions
1 Roma Tomato
Fresh Basil
1 tablespoon of minced garlic
Sesame Ginger oil
Light soy sauce
2 tablespoons of Olive Oil
Whole Grain Brown Rice

Cut Chicken into cubes and put in bowl. Marinate with Sesame Ginger Oil and Soy Sauce. Sprinkle some salt and garlic pepper and mix

Cut all vegetables and place them to the side while chicken cooks

Heat medium sized pan or wok and coat with olive oil at about medium-high

After pan is heated for a little, put the chicken into the pot and cook to no longer pink. Turn frequently and add more sauce if needed.

While chicken is cooking you can start on the brown rice. I like the Uncle Ben’s whole grain brown rice that can be cooked in 10-12 minutes tops. Follow the directions by adding water according to the serving size you are cooking and add a 1 tbsp of omega 3 butter.

Once chicken is cooked you can add the vegetables to the mix. Stir frequently and make sure vegetables are coated with sauce. You only need to cook vegetables for an additional 5 minutes.

Once the chicken, vegetables, and rice are complete you can mix in the rice and enjoy an awesome dinner!

That’s just one meal, there are plenty of other delicious, light, and healthy meals for you to choose from that don’t take up hours of your time.

You really don’t need any chefs to make your food and it isn’t that hard to step into the kitchen and whip something up for you and your family.

Now you have one less excuse to eat healthy and lose weight.
