Hi Folks,
What is the secret? Eat lots of fruits and vegetables, at least a serving of one or the other with each meal. This is something that very few people do. Fast foods doesn't usually provide this. But it is sooo important. The certified nutritionists are now saying that a properly nutritious meal must include about three servings with each one of the three daily meals. Well only one good serving with each meal is more than adequate to help enough with mild breathing difficulties that inhalers will no longer be needed.
A great way to make you like and even pursue the eating of vegetables is to add a good pinch of sugar to the water, one-fourth teaspoon for a whole pound, when cooking frozen vegetables. It will not taste sweet, but will bring out the flavor which was lost in the processing of the frozen vegetables. I learned this searching the internet for cooking tips. It works. Also keep bouillon handy and poultry seasoning, or "mild" chili powder, Italian seasoning, onion powder, and garlic powder/granules/salt at your fingertips to add to the water for a variety of flavors. Just one fourth teaspoon per pound of vegetables; probably more for chili powder. And always add a tablespoon of oil to the water, or butter when drained, or not. For a quick, filling stew, just add quick rice to it; it cooks about the same length of time as the frozen vegetables.
You can cook a single serving in a small pot with just about a half cup of water and just a pinch of sugar; and do it about as fast as you can bake a potato in the microwave.
Vegetables keeps hunger away longer, something about the fiber; you can google it.
Hope this helps.
