Tip 1 : Eat seasonally! Checking what vegetables are in season in your area can help save money and support your local farmers.

Tip 2 : Serve seafood twice a week-it's simple! Make patties with canned salmon, crab, or tuna, or use them on a seafood sandwich.

Tip 3 : Dried fruit (raisins, dates, cranberries) and fresh fruit (chopped apples or pears) make a great combination. Add nuts for an extra crunch.

Tip 4 : Keep a bowl of cut-up veggies in a see-through container in the refrigerator so they are easier to spot.

Tip 5 : For something to snack on, use a yogurt dip to compliment raw vegetables. Look online for recipes.

Tip 6 : Looking for a new way to eat Brussels sprouts? They can be boiled, sautéed, or oven roasted to go along with any meal.

Tip 7 : Osteoporosis (thinning of bones) can be reduced by routinely eating low-fat or fat-free dairy food --at all ages and stages of life.

Tip 8 : Cut-up fresh or canned fruit (canned in juice or water) makes a great waffle topping--you can skip the syrup and whipped cream.

Tip 9 : Eat the most perishable fruit first. Bananas only last a few days, while apples will stay crisp in the fridge for over a week.

Tip 10 : To get some extra dairy, add some shredded low-fat cheese to tuna casserole.
