Your parents always said you need to eat your veggies.(I can still hear those words, can't you?) And, as usual, they were right. Greens are packed with nutrients: antioxidants, fiber, vitamins and minerals (and very few calories) to keep your body feeling great and looking fabulous! Here are a couple of ideas to increase the green in your life? A dinner creation by yours truly, and a green powder that is superb for on-the-go lifestyles. Try ?em, you might just like ?em?.Mikey does!
Everything but the kitchen sink:
* Brown some ground free-range turkey meat (or use tofu for all you super veggies).
* Steam your fav or organic veggies - I like spinach, broccoli, kale, red bell pepper, snap peas & onions with a touch of garlic powder.
* Get a large plate or bowl.
* Fill the bowl with a variety of fresh, organic crisp greens, lots and lots of them.
* Add the steamed veggies.
* Pile on the cooked turkey (or other) meat.
* Crumble a handful of feta cheese over the whole dish.
* Sprinkle some raisins, to taste.
* Top it off with freeze-dried veggies like peas or corn (Crunchies brand is the best!)
* Drizzle your favorite dressing.
* Shazaam - You've got a plate full of nutrition, protein and greens, a variety of flavors to satisfy, and a dish with no name. Oh yeah'it?s good, and quick to prepare!!
Remember - Eat Fresh, Buy Local.

No, seriously, you can still get the nutrition you need by drinking your greens. Nowadays, most powders even taste good with the help of my favorite pal, stevia, an herbal all natural sweetener.
I recommend that you add these to your favorite beverage, water preferably, drink and be green. Chock full of super nutrients like spirulina (this microalgae is 60% all-vegetable protein, rich in beta carotene, iron, vitamin B-12 and the rare essential fatty acid, GLA), a bunch of grasses, chlorella, fiber and oh, so much more. Be sure to wipe off your green mustache, it's not attractive.
