Normally I try to share articles that are deep, insightful and nonetheless thought provoking, but sometimes we all need a little break from the norm as long as it provides some inspiration!
Based on the most recent data from the CDC, in Alaska, only 19% of adults and 41.6% of adolescents in grades 9-12 consume less than one vegetable per day. Nationally only 1 in 10 adults get enough fruits and vegetables, which means 90% of adults are not getting the recommended 2-3 cups of vegetables per day as part of a healthy eating pattern. I don’t know about you, but sometimes my vegetable repertoire has much to be desired and can we say, lacks some creativity and can seem a little boring. If you can relate to this, I encourage you to checkout a recent blog post I came across through one of our insurance partners, Premera, titled How to Break Out of Your Winter Vegetables Rut. This piece is sure to get those creative culinary ideas circulating with some very mouth-watering recipes!
