I am always trying to find more creative ways to include vegetables in my diet. Dipping cucumbers in hummus gets old pretty fast! Soup is a perfect way to get a serving or 2 of vegetables in our diets, especially with this all veggie soup. I wanted to share some tips on ways to include more veggies in your diet other than this soup recipe. Eatright.org is where I am pulling some of these tips from!

1. Make a veggie wrap with roasted vegetables and low-fat cheese rolled in a whole-wheat tortilla.
2. Grill colorful vegetable kabobs packed with tomatoes, green and red peppers, mushrooms and onions. 
3. Stock your freezer with frozen vegetables to steam or stir-fry for a quick side dish.
4. Stuff an omelet with vegetables. Turn any omelet into a hearty meal with broccoli, squash, carrots, peppers, tomatoes or onions with low-fat sharp cheddar cheese.
5. Keep cut vegetables handy for mid-afternoon snacks, side dishes, lunch box additions or a quick nibble while waiting for dinner
