Healthy Choices, Right in Your Freezer

One of the greatest values in the super market are the bagged frozen vegetables located in the freezer isle.  With many choices to choose from, these easy to use and cost-effective options are a great way to incorporate a colorful variety of healthy produce into your eating plan.  If you price compare, you’d find that you would spend significantly more on fresh vegetables and if you are like many people, to many of these fresh vegetables go to waste.

Just as nutritious as fresh, these vegetables are picked at their peak and flash-frozen, locking in all their healthful nutrients.  Plus, you can select mixed-vegetable blends (such as stir-fry or California-style varieties) and get up to seven different vegetables per bag. And…(clap, clap, clap), the chopping is done for you!

There are so many options in using frozen veggies – add them to soups, chilies and casseroles.  Stir them into omelets, stir-fries and side dishes with your favorite protein.  You can even add them into your smoothing, adding phytonutrients to a yummy shake.  And, want to sneak veggies into your children’s diet?  Simply puree them to add to pasta sauce (they’ll never know!!)

Just be careful and chose veggies that do not contain sauces, salt, sugar or unhealthy additives

See…eating health IS easy and doesn’t have to be expensive.  Stock up on frozen veggies and you are ready to go!

Blessings,
