Food Colors and Portions--you may not have known.The more colorful the food on your plate, the healthier you are eating.
Follow these serving size suggestions:
Fill half of your plate with vegetables or salad trying to use more dark leafy greens and brightly colored vegetables such as red, green, and yellow peppers, and tomatoes. The more raw vegetables you consume the better—cooking depletes many of the nutrients.
Fill quarter of your plate with potato, rice, pasta, couscous, or bread.
Fill quarter of your plate with lean red meat, fish, and skinless chicken, beans, peas or lentils.
