I have challenged myself to eat more green. If you think about what people ate 200 years ago, I am sure it was not boxed, pre-packaged food full of white flour and refined sugar. I am sure they would have looked at you like you were from Mars had you offered them some high-fructose corn syrup or partially hydrogenated cottonseed oil. I think they ate a lot of green.
I am not complaining about all of the wonderful conveniences we have now, mind you. I am just knowing it would be healthier for my body to eat more green.
I am challenging myself to put a little more fresh green into every meal.
For breakfast, eggs scrambled with fresh garlic chives. I put them on a sandwich with just a tiny grating of cheese for flavor and topped it with a lot of fresh arugula from the garden.
It was really good. I’ll be drinking a lot of fresh herbal teas today.

[...] This certainly qualifies as eating more green. [...]
