June 16: Eat and Live Healthy on Today's National Vegetable Day!

Veggies are a key part of any balanced diet. Educating your children about them, and using some imaginative recipes along with incentives, can make healthy food fun. Remember: the more colors that are eaten in a day, such as green broccoli, purple beetroot, and orange carrots, the greater the range of vitamins and minerals your family will be consuming.

Perhaps consider slicing vegetables into fun and imaginative shapes. Create some soups, make fresh pizzas using roasted peppers, or give fries a new twist by making them out of carrots or parsnips.

Ideally, veggies shouldn't be boiled for too long. The crunchier they are, the more natural goodness that'll be found within. Growing them at home is another way to make sure that your kids are enthusiastic to eat all their veggies every day.

So the next time you pass by a vegetable stand or run across a friend's vegetable garden, just indulge and let online food recipes from our Dishfolio food bloggers guide you to make some healthy dinner meals!
