Basically, don’t stick to just one color all the time!</li>\n<li><strong>Fresh fruit:</strong> The same color rule applies here; however, also choose fresh fruits that are in season. (<em>Hint</em><strong><em>:</em></strong> Berries aren’t fresh in the winter!)</li>\n<li><strong>Whole grains:</strong> Become familiar with different grains in their whole forms. Experiment with ones like kamut, oats, quinoa, and spelt. You can also get breads and pastas made from these grains.</li>\n<li><strong>Beans:</strong> Explore the diversity of beans. Black beans, chickpeas, kidney beans, and lentils are easy to cook with, and they’re loaded with protein, too.</li>\n<li><strong>Healthy oils:</strong> Stock up on oils like coconut oil, flaxseed oil, and olive oil. They all come in handy for different occasions and can be used in everything from salads to baking.</li>\n<li><strong>Nuts and seeds:</strong> Keep a variety of nuts and seeds on hand. Almonds, hempseeds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds are good essentials. They make great additions to breakfast oats or smoothies and are a quick snack.</li>\n<li><strong>Other extras:</strong> Get a hold of basics like almond butter, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, nutritional yeast, pure maple syrup, and tamari (natural soy sauce).</li>\n</ul>\n"},{"title":"Plant-based eating when you're out and about","thumb":null,"image":null,"content":"<p>When planning your day of plant-based eating out, you ideally want to think about how you can choose a balance of meals that offer your body enough variety to keep you satisfied and full.
