Eat Your Fruits and Veggies

...not something I was previously accustomed to...unless said fruits and vegetables were on my pizza. But since taking on the challenge of no dairy and practicing Yoga four times a week, my eating habits are changing. So, I thought I'd share.

With pictures and words. In conjunction with the small garden we have planted in our backyard, routine Thursday visits to the Kapolei Farmers Market, and increased mileage on our wallet at Down to Earth (local vegetarian health food store) I have been coming up with some colorful and delicious healthy snacks and meals. And yes, the kids (12 and 4) are eating them too.

Eating my fruits and veggies has caused me to get creative, be mindful of what my body needs, and set a good example for my boys. (Even if I could still go for a nice extra cheesy slice of pizza.) But for now, the new veggie-quo is working for us.

This concludes this weeks photo ode to fruits and veggies. Stay tuned for future fruit and veggie consumption...and accompanying pictures.
