Tip 1 : For a quick smoothie, try orange juice, non-fat yogurt, and frozen mango slices (or other fruit). Add ice, blend and enjoy!

Tip 3 : Make sure you buy enough fresh, canned, frozen, and/or dried fruit to last between shopping trips.

Tip 4 : Puree your leftover roasted tomatoes and make an easy homemade soup. Check out recipes online for ingredients you'll need.

Tip 5 : Keep canned fruit (in 100% juice or water) like mandarin oranges on hand for a quick addition to any recipe--check for recipes online.

Tip 6 : Add a vegetarian protein food to make a salad into a main dish--try garbanzo beans, kidney beans, soybeans or sunflower seeds.

Tip 7 : Cook it once, eat twice. Make extra vegetables and save some for later. Use them for a stew, soup, or a pasta dish.

Tip 8 : Vary your protein choices at a barbecue. Try bean burgers, soy hot dogs, or grilled tofu. Use a low-salt marinade to add flavor.
