I don’t eat enough fruits and vegetables. I want to add one fruit and one vegetable to my daily diet . I think I can add one fruit in the morning as a snack and one more vegetable to either my lunch or my dinner. Another option is to add a vegetable as a mid afternoon snack cut that doesn’t sound very appealing! Open to suggestions!

@heathk4 My family does burritos/bowls frequently. We get the big bag of rice, cans of beans and bulk chicken from Costco. We add some salsa, onion and Greek yogurt ( as sour cream sub). Since we eat it a few times a week and just switch up the seasoning flavors, it's pretty cost effective and hits our macro goals.
