CUTE IDEA ALERT: Up Your Veggie Intake!
Wanna up your veggie intake in an instant? Snag oh-so-adorable Miss Couturable’s new-school take on going vegetarian. She recently blogged about being vegan ‘til six—aka, avoiding meat and dairy products until dinner.
It’s crazy-important for teen girls to get calcium, so don’t forget to include mineral-rich foods like spinach, broccoli, beans, almonds and tofu during the first couple meals of the day.
Easy B-fast options:
*Old-fashioned oatmeal with berries
*Whole-wheat toast with peanut butter and an apple
*Cereal with soy milk and banana wheels
Yummy lunches:
*A sandwich loaded with spinach, hummus, sprouts, tomatoes on whole-wheat bread
*Salad topped with chickpeas, olives, mushrooms, tofu and piles of your fave vegetables with a whole-wheat pita on the side
*Whole-wheat pasta primavera (pasta topped and vegetables like zucchini, yellow squash, broccoli and peppers)
