«To have a healthy diet, it is key to incorporate at least
five pieces or portions (or 400 grams) of fruits and vegetables a day.»
The food culture is gaining more and more followers every day. A growing trend that allows us to control what we eat, spend less and eat healthier.
With this upward trend, it is essential to dedicate time and effort when preparing the menu that will be eaten outside the home, if we want a balanced 100% diet. And, to have a healthy diet, it is key to incorporate at least five pieces or portions (or 400 grams) of fruits and vegetables a day.
This type of preparation is in contrast to the limited time that families have to buy food and prepare it later.
That is why we must know how to choose, when shopping, how to optimize time; that is why using frozen vegetables is a good option. They are low in calories, but very complete because they are a source of vitamins, minerals and fiber, essential nutrients for the human body. And, in addition, they allow you to save time when cooking, since they arrive clean and chopped, ready to make delicious dishes.
We can even find frozen out-of-season fruits, which allow us to prepare smoothies or milkshakes.
This way it is much easier to reach the recommended 5 a day.
