National Eat Your Vegetables Day

We kid you not. Today, June 17th, is National Eat Your Vegetables Day. June is fresh fruit and vegetable month, but today it’s all about the veggies. They used to say “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.” However, doctors have had to revise that saying to “five a day.” Challenge yourself to get your five full servings of veggies today. You can have a veggie scramble for breakfast, a salad for lunch, and roasted veggies for dinner. For dessert don’t forget the carrot cake (it totally counts). They say that as a rule of thumb, the more colorful your meal is, the healthier it is. Let the State Street Farmers’ Market add color to your life. Today from 3pm to 7pm on State Street in downtown Carlsbad Village. Market Info »
