VETERAN'S DAY !!!
** On Veterans Day, November 11th wear your Red, White and Blue **
Add more Vegetables to your Day
It’s easy to eat more vegetables! Eating vegetables is important because they provide vitamins and minerals and
most are low in calories. To fit more vegetables in your meals, follow these simple tips. It is easier than you may
think.
1. Discover fast ways to cook. Cook fresh or frozen vegetables in the microwave for a quick-and-easy dish to
add to any meal. Steam green beans, carrots, or broccoli in a bowl with a small amount of water in the
microwave for a quick side dish.
2. Be ahead of the game. Cut up a batch of bell peppers, carrots, or broccoli. Pre-package them to use when
time is limited. You can enjoy them on a salad, with hummus, or in a veggie wrap.
3. Choose vegetables rich in color. Brighten your plate with vegetables that are red, orange, or dark green.
They are full of vitamins and minerals. Try acorn squash, cherry tomatoes, sweet potatoes, or collard greens.
They not only taste great but also are good for you, too.
4. Check the freezer aisle. Frozen vegetables are quick and easy to use and are just as nutritious as fresh
veggies. Try adding frozen corn, peas, green beans, spinach, or sugar snap peas to some of your favorite
dishes or eat as a side dish.
5. Stock up on veggies. Canned vegetables are a great addition to any meal, so keep on hand canned
tomatoes, kidney beans, garbanzo beans, mushrooms, and beets. Select tose labeled as “reduced sodium,”
“low sodium,” or “no salt added.”
6. Make your garden salad glow with color. Brighten your salad by using colorful vegetables such as black
beans, sliced red bell peppers, shredded radishes, chopped red cabbage, or water cress. Your salad will not
only look good but taste good, too.
7. Sip on some vegetable soup. Heat it and eat it. Try tomato, butternut squash, or garden vegetable soup.
Look for reduced- or low-sodium soups.
8. While you’re out. If dinner is away from home, no need to worry. When ordering, ask for an extra side of
vegetables or side salad instead of the typical fried sided dish.
9. Savor the flavor of seasonal vegetables. Buy vegetables that are in season for maximum flavor at a lower
cost. Check your local supermarket specials for the best-in-season buys. Or visit your local farmer’s market.
10. Try something new. You never know what you may like. Choose a new vegetable- add it to your recipe or
look up how to fix it online.

GB By Izzy Kalman Whether your child is bullied or not, this is a great program that helps us teach our children how
to develop confidence and nurture interactive social skills.
How do I know if Bullies 2 Buddies is right for my child? Ask yourself the following questions:
I want my children/students to grow up into adults who:
A. Blame others for their feelings and problems.
B. Take personal responsibility for their feelings and problems.
I want my children/students to:
A. Demand to be treated like they are perfect, and to get upset whenever someone
criticizes them or poke fun at them.
B. Know they are not perfect, to be able to handle criticism, and to be able to take and
make jokes about themselves.
I want my children/students to develop resilience and assertive skills so they can handle the
hardships of life:
A. No.
B. Yes.
If you prefer “B” responses, you are likely to be happy with the Bullies 2 Buddies approach. It will
teach your children how to problem solve conflicts so they can grow in resilience, selfconfidence and self-esteem.
Next week: Tips on how to help your child with relational aggression.
