4 ways to include leafy greens in your meals to lose weight

MỸ LY (THEO LIVESTRONG) |

The fiber in leafy greens helps the body stabilize blood sugar levels and control hunger, supporting weight loss.

There are many ways to include leafy greens such as bok choy, brussel sprouts, collard greens, etc. in your daily diet that are both delicious and nutritious, supporting the weight loss process.

Add to smoothies

The combination of sweet fruits and nut butter or fatty seeds will hide the flavor of many bitter green vegetables. Accordingly, you can add 2 servings of vegetables to each serving of fruit to help keep the sugar content in your drink low.

Mix into your favorite dishes

Adding a little green vegetables to the recipes that the family has loved is a discreet combination that diners often do not notice.

For some people, maintaining the mouthfeel of certain foods is very important. If this is the case for you, make sure to steam or cook vegetables long enough to break them down without losing their nutrients.

Break it

Green leafy vegetables rich in fiber such as bok choy, brussel and collard greens can all be sliced thinly, just make sure to keep your eyes on the oven, because the baking time will vary depending on the hardness of the green vegetable.

Cold-fried vegetables

The nutrients in frozen vegetables are just as great as fresh vegetables. Frozen vegetables are often cheaper and can be stored in the freezer for a long time, regardless of the season. There are many options with frozen vegetables such as adding a bag of frozen spinach to canned soup for a quick and filling lunch.
