A Secret of Success and Holiday Eating

November 15, 2023

A secret of success when it comes to holiday eating

Don’t roll your eyes, okay?


Pinky promise?


Drum roll….non-starchy veggies are your holiday superpower! 


So earth-shattering and sexy, right? Hey, hear me out! 


Try not just to recall what you don’t like about veggies. I’ve learned it’s all about how they are prepared, and often, when mixed into something delicious or in a new recipe, you won’t mind them one bit. And when you realize the power of longevity and wellness they bring, you’ll make them happen one way or another!


Perhaps some vegetables you have dismissed deserve another chance...maybe prepared in an entirely different way and consumed with a smile. 


Non-starchy veggies have one-third the calories of their starchy counterparts, so you can eat a BUNCH of them for very few calories and TONS of health benefits: your success in long-term health largely depends on this!


Consider these non-starchy vegetables listed below in a new light. Some preparation suggestions for non-starchy veggies include steaming, roasting, grilling, and stir-frying or adding to soups, salads, sandwiches, and casseroles.

    Asparagus
    Green Beans
    Beets
    Broccoli
