π» August Spotlight: Eat the Rainbow
All month long, we're celebrating the incredible variety of colorful produce that August has to offer! Eating a wide range of naturally colorful fruits and vegetables doesn't just make your plate beautifulβit provides your body with a variety of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber that support overall health.
Here's a simple goal for August: Try to include at least three different colors of fruits and vegetables on your plate each day.
Some of my favorite August produce includes:
π
Tomatoes β’ π½ Sweet Corn β’ π Peaches β’ π« Blueberries β’ π Watermelon β’ π₯ Cucumbers β’ π« Bell Peppers β’ π Eggplant β’ π₯¬ Greens β’ π Cantaloupe
I'll be featuring these seasonal favorites in many of this month's meals so you can enjoy the freshest flavors while supporting local growers whenever possible.
