6. Carrots
If you want to eat more satisfying healthy meals, it’s time to add more carrots into your diet. Carrots are rich in fiber and come with a sweet, satisfying crunch, especially when you snack on them raw. “The fiber content of carrots provides a feeling of fullness with few calories,” Palinski-Wade says.
In whatever healthy recipe you want to add them, carrots fill you up and maximize the nutritional content of your meal with fewer calories. “They can add both flavor and fiber when pureed and included in recipes such as hummus, tomato sauces, and chilies,” Piga-Plunkett says.
However, you can enjoy them even when you’re on the go. Plus, consuming more carrots will protect your teeth, nourish your dry skin, boost your immune system and, of course improve your eyesight.
