If You Eat Vegetables at Dinner but Almost Never at Breakfast or Lunch, Read This

Dinner is where most of us remember the vegetables. The first two meals of the day are where they quietly disappear. Here's why, and what to do about it.

Picture a normal day. Breakfast: coffee, maybe toast. Lunch: a sandwich at your desk. Dinner: finally, something green on the plate.

If that sounds familiar, you're not alone. For a lot of people, dinner is doing all the work.

Here are five things worth knowing about the vegetable gap at breakfast and lunch.

Editor's note: This article is an advertisement from Earth Energy, the maker of Fruits & Veggies capsules. It's general education, not medical advice. Supplements don't replace whole fruits and vegetables. Talk to your doctor before starting any supplement.
Number 4 is the easiest fix on this list, and it takes about ten seconds.

1.One Meal Can't Carry the Whole Day.

Fitting a full day's worth of vegetables into a single dinner is hard. Most plates simply aren't that big.

2.Breakfast Is the Hardest Meal for Vegetables.

Most breakfast foods don't naturally include them: cereal, toast, eggs, coffee. Unless you're making a veggie omelet every morning, breakfast is usually produce-free.

The takeawaySmall swaps help: berries on your cereal, spinach in your eggs, fruit on the side.

3.Lunch Is Where Convenience Wins.

Lunch happens fast, often at work or on the road. The easiest options rarely come with much from the produce aisle.

4.Give Breakfast a Simple Anchor.

Many people add one small habit to their first meal of the day, and it sticks because it's tied to something they already do, like coffee.

For some, that anchor is two Fruits & Veggies capsules with their morning water.

The takeawayTie the new habit to an old one.
