Default Re: Starting Over - :(

Remember that the '5 a day' means fairly close to our 3 cups of veg.

Quote:
A serving size is:
  • One medium-size fruit
  • 1/2 cup raw, cooked, frozen or canned fruits (in 100% juice) or vegetables
  • 3/4 cup (6 oz.) 100% fruit or vegetable juice
  • 1/2 cup cooked, canned or frozen legumes (beans and peas)
  • 1 cup raw, leafy vegetables
  • 1/4 cup dried fruit
So:
1 cup of leafy salad veg = 1 serving
1/2 cup brocolli = 1 serving
1/2 cup rhubarb = 1 serving
1/2 cup raw mushrooms = 1 serving
1/2 cup raw red peppers = 1 serving
So within the 3 cups of induction there are 5 servings already!!
