Creative ways to get in your five?

I try to have some sort of fruit or veggie with every meal. A banana in my cereal, lettuce and tomato on a sandwich and veggies with dinner. We also have applesauce with our dinner most nights (I buy the organic, no sugar added kind). I make my hubby fruit smoothies a lot. And I like to drink V-8 Juice, although I don't know if it counts as a veggie serving. Now you've inspired me to go eat a grapefruit, crazynurse!

I was thinking about this a few days ago. I don't get it; what's so hard? 1 - fruit with breakfast or a juice. 2 - fruit or sweet veg (carrot sticks) on tea break 3 and 4 - veggies in your lunch 5 and 6 - veggies with your dinner I can get 7 in for people who have pudding and up to 9 or even 10 for people who snack on fruit after work (or whatever it is you do with your day). Whole fruit smoothies are a great way to do it, and for those that cannot cope with a big meal (like myself) snacking on fruit and veg through the day will do just fine.

I just eat them. I have to admit I'm not very creative, the most creative thing would be fruit salad and for veg, well I don't eat to much. my wife cooks me carrots sometimes, my son steals them because he loves 'em. ~Joey

Juicing fresh fruits and vegetables is a good way to get in your 5 a day. I don't do it every day like I should, but I find it the easiest way to get in my 5 when I do it. Otherwise it can be difficult to meet that daily requirement, especially if one isn't taking supplements.

I have a salad, with another veggie for dinner, I also have an apple for lunch with a glass of juice and juice for breakfast. You can have two servings at one time. I find that 8 oz of oj is not enough I will take 16 and drink during the day and have an apple for snack. Have an salad with some meat for lunch and for dinner have salad and a veggie and an orange or banana for dessert.
