Health Tip: Make a Bright, Healthy Plate

Eating a rainbow of fruit and vegetables helps ensure that you’re getting a healthy variety of nutrients.

The American Heart Association suggests:

  • Adding bright, colorful produce to every meal and snack.
  • Looking at your plate before eating. If it’s too plain, add colorful fruits and vegetables.
  • Adding chopped frozen veggies to pasta, rice and macaroni and cheese.
