Intro and Outro

You know they're packed with vitamins and antioxidants, low in calories and just plain healthy, but sometimes fruits and vegetables can seem well...a little boring. You steam, boil, make sauces and salsas or just eat your fruits and veggies raw, but you and your family are ready for something new. Coming up next, some perhaps new and not so often thought of ways to prepare and to add excitement to your fruit and veggie dishes.

Healthy eating and cooking does not mean bland and boring, not does it mean spending hours in the kitchen. Add some excitement to your veggie crisper and fruit bowl this week, by trying some new produce and then preparing it using a new cooking method. Even better, learn to grow your own fruits and vegetables this season. The next "High Plains Home & Yard" will help you get started with information about garden seed.
