Store for Freshness
Just tossing your produce in the fridge won't make it last. Here are the smartest spots to store most common produce, whether at room temperature, on a refrigerator shelf, or in the crisper (the coldest fridge drawer): Apples, blueberries, broccoli, carrots, celery, kale, onions, parsley, and strawberries should go in your coldest fridge drawer. While cucumbers, garlic, ginger, grapefruit, lemons, and oranges, should be stored on your refidgerator's shelves. Tomatoes and avocados should be left at room temp. Click here to see the cool pinable chart with all this helpful info.

DIY Smoothie Packs
If you're not prepared, making a smoothie can turn into a 15-minute production. DIY smoothie packs are the perfect solution to this predicament. Just prep all the fruit and greens you plan use in your smoothies, and freeze individual serving sizes in quart-sized zip-top bags (glass mason jars work well, too). Write a note with any ingredients that need to be added to the blender last-minute, and your smoothie is as good as done. 

Go Greek
Skip oil, butter, and heavy cream, and bump up levels of calcium, protein, and probiotics in your meals by using Greek yogurt. It can easily sub in for mayo, sour cream, or heavy milk in your favorite recipes.
