Tip 1 : 1 cup cooked pasta or macaroni counts as 2 oz of grains. Use My Plan to find out how many ounces of grains per day you need.
Tip 2 : Some whole grains are a good source of fiber. Look for breads that have at least 3 grams of fiber per serving on the Nutrition Facts label.
Tip 3 : What could you do with radishes? Roast with other vegetables or eat raw on top of a salad for a spicy and crunchy texture.
Tip 4 : Switch it up. Make vegetables your main-dish by topping a salad with your choice of a protein food.

Tip 6 : Vary your veggies by including beans or peas in mixed dishes such as chili or minestrone soup.
Tip 7 : Try a new fruit. Fruits vary in vitamins and minerals--mix it up to get the essential nutrients.
Tip 8 : Multi-grain, stone-ground, 100% wheat, cracked wheat, or seven-grain doesn't equal whole-grain. Look for the word "whole"!
Tip 9 : When choosing canned fruits, select fruit canned in 100% fruit juice or water rather than syrup.
