Okay. Anyone that knows me knows that I despise vegetables, "except corn and potatoes". The thought of eating most vegetables makes me gag...literally. I know, I know...I'm 24. I need to be eating vegetables! We need like 12 servings of these suckers a day (that's what it feels like to me!). Sigh....but it's sooo hard! I blame my parents. LOL.
But in an effort to eat a bit more healthy, I've slowly put surely been trying to sneak vegetables in my diet.
I started with V-8 Fusion: Concord Grape Raspberry is the only one that I enjoy right now. Hey...in my book, drinking vegetables counts! And each serving has a full serving of fruits AND vegetables. Two birds with one stone.
Then I moved onto adding spinach to my fruit smoothies. I had read online about how good it was for you and everyone PROMISED that you couldn't taste it. So I bought spinach and it sat in my freezer for two weeks while I continue to have smoothies without it. I finally tried it today. and GUESS WHAT?! You can't taste the spinach...thank god, bananas are so strong! haha
And because I'm a big kid now, I bought Buitoni's Spinach Cheese Tortellini pasta...just to try. I had it for lunch today and I LOVE it...You can't even tell the difference between the spinach pasta and the regular ones.
So at the age of 24, I am finally eating some veggies! Yes, I'm proud of this. Yes, I realize that most people have been eating veggies since they were babies. But, I don't care, judge away! :)
Haha. Happy Sunday, y'all!
