Leafy greens: Dark, leafy greens are a good source of vitamin A, vitamin C, fiber, calcium, and other minerals. Some examples of these greens include arugula, kale, collard greens, and spinach. You can incorporate these greens into almost anything from salads to sandwiches.

Berries: Fresh berries have many nutritional benefits as they are low in calories, high in fiber, and contain many antioxidants. Incorporate a handful of berries (strawberries, blueberries, etc.) into some fat free yogurt and granola for a quick and easy breakfast!

Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, collard greens, etc.): These vegetables are great sources of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. You can incorporate these vegetables into stir-fry, soups, and pasta dishes.

Legumes (kidney, black, red, and garbanzo beans, as well as soybeans and peas): Legumes are a plant-based protein that is also a good source of fiber. You can add them to salads, soups, chili, or make a hummus spread.
