5 Interesting Ways To Add More Vegetables To Your Diet- You Are Going To Love These! – Doctor NDTV

It is important to add a variety of meals to your diet for optimum nutrition and strong immunity. If you're bored of the traditional Indian subzis, then here are interesting ways that can help you eat more vegetables daily.

Eat salads as meals to add more vegetables to your diet

Nutritionist and health experts often recommend including lots of fruits and vegetables in our daily diet. But we often fall short of ideas of different ways to include different vegetables in your diet. Eating traditional Indian subzis might get monotonous after a point of time and thus there's a need of different ways to add more vegetables in your diet.

Indian sabzis like gobi aloo, mix vegetables, palak paneer etc taste wonderful if consumed along with your humble dal and rice. But if you feel too bored out of eating vegetables in this pattern, then here's what you can do:

1. Saute vegetables: Steam different varieties of veggies like broccoli, mushroom, baby corn, bell peppers, zucchini and leafy greens. Season them with salt, black pepper and your favourite spices. They serve to be a great side dish with dishes like grilled chicken. A serving of saute vegetables on the side of simple dishes does wonders in terms of making the dish more interesting and delicious.
