We know staples; rice, yam, flours and meats are a really big deal in this part of the world. But as much as we love our staples and meats, we still gotta balance it up with a bit of vegetable here and there. For all those who never got over their childhood hatred for vegetables, this might be a little bit tricky. So how do you incorporate vegetable in a fun way in your everyday meals?

5. Veggie pasta
Okay, this may sound extreme. But there are actually machines and stuff that can cut up your veggies into noodle like strips. You can decide to lightly fry or steam these veggies and have with some sauce. You could also just lightly season them and enjoy yourself.
6. Soups
Try blending your veggies smooth and adding them to smooth soups for picky children. Adults who can’t stand to chew or crunch on their veggies can also enjoy vegetables blended into soups. Although, you might want to keep cooking time short to minimize nutrient loss
7. Grated Veggies
Grate veggies on your staple foods for a splash of healthy colour and flavor. Grated carrots, aubergines and other firm veggies can go a way in adding some fresh nutrition to your food.
8. Roasted/Grilled Vegetable
Drizzle a bit of oil, sprinkle spices on your veggies and fire up the grill. Or we could just borrow grandma’s coal pot. Grilled vegetables are a lovely option to consider, a fun new way to get your vegetable quota.
9. Dips
Certain veggies can be blended up with your olive oil and spices to act as your dips, relish or even salad cream. Add a bit of lemon zest for some zing. You’d be amazed at how easily you forget that you got some veggies in there.
10. Bulk up your sandwich
Do you enjoy having a sandwich for breakfast? Then introduce some vegetables into your sandwich or burgers. You add more goodness to your meal, a bit of fibre and bulk to your bland bread meal. Reducing the bread to allow more veggies is even healthier. You can also try to order a veggie pizza, delicious!
We hope you try these suggetions out for a bit healthier in your everyday life. Go to your local market and take a break from the usual veggies and you’d be surprised. A variety of veggies are actually grown locally in Nigeria and we don’t know about. Ask around a bit and liven up your plate and your table with amazing healthy additions.
