TUESDAY
White/Brown/Tan Day

They may be a little boring in color but white/tan/brown fruits and veggies are full of vitamins and minerals too.

Fruit Options:
Bananas, White Peaches, Dates, White Pears

* I say bananas can count as yellow or tan because when I think of a banana I think yellow.
* To add some fun to white peaches, cut them up and put them in a reusable container and sprinkle some cinnamon on top.

Vegetable Options:
Cauliflower, Mushrooms, White Corn, White Potatoes, Chick Peas

* Cauliflower s full of antioxidants, vitamin C and contains folate.  Folate is naturally present in many food and is a B vitamin that is needed to make DNA and for your body's cells to divide.
* Potatoes are high in vitamin C to help support a healthy immune system.  They are also a good source of potassium.  Potassium is crucial to heart function and plays a key role in skeletal and smooth muscle contraction, making it important for normal digestive and muscular function.
