Low in calories but packed with essential vitamins, mineral and fiber, leafy greens are some of the healthiest foods on the planet.
Keen to eat more greens but don’t fancy munching your way through mountains of kale? We’ve got your back! Here are some of our favorite easy ways to get more health-boosting greens into your diet!
Blend Into Smoothies
Blending them into smoothies is a great way to eat more greens without even noticing. While you can go all in with a super leafy smoothie, packed with green goodness, you can also simply throw a handful of spinach or chard in with your usual fruity faves.
Stir Into Soups
There are not many soups that can’t be improved with a generous handful of leafy greens. They’ll add a pop of color and they’ll wilt so much, you’ll barely notice they’re there. We recommend keeping a bag of frozen spinach on hand at all times for a souper economical way to add more nutrients to your bowl!
Blitz Into Pesto
When basil is in short supply, make your pesto go further with kale, spinach, collard greens or other herbs. Bellissima!
Sauté With Olive Oil & Garlic
This simple side dish is perfect for serving with pasta, grilled meats or fish, or just about any entrée! Sizzle the garlic in olive oil until aromatic before adding your greens for a delicious savory flavor.
