Ways to eat more fruits & veggies

This article from Cooking Light has a bunch of good tips on how to eat more fruits & veggies. My favorites are: 
•   Become a food processing pro – Use the shredding blade to grate squash, carrots, zucchini, turnips, onions, sweet potatoes, etc. Bag them up and keep them easily accessible in the refrigerator. Add them to sauces, soups, stir-fry, casseroles, pizzas.


•   Sauté or grill extra vegetables on your meatless Monday, and continue to use the leftovers later in the week in pasta dishes, soups, sandwiches, and salads.

•   Make a large batch of fruit salad to have on hand for meals and snacks.



Eating enough f&vs is essential to being healthy and staying OP. What are your favorite ways to increase your fruits & veggies?
