If you don’t like vegetables and are trying to incorporate more of them into your diet, you might feel like giving up the battle every single time you see a boiled carrot.
But there are ways to overcome this. Here are some tips on how to eat more vegetables even if you don’t like them that much.
Peanut butter.
Ice cream. Followed by a second helping.
A bag of crunchy salty stuff – popcorn, roasted salty nuts, things that you just have to finish, no matter how big the bag is.
Packs of sweet crunchy stuff – biscuits, cookies, waffles.
Warm fresh bread and salted butter.
Trigger foods are those that you can’t stop eating. The ones above are my personal examples. Just some of them.
Our brain is wired to love and become addicted to the sweet – fat – salty combo. It’s not our fault, it’s evolutionary. But we can choose what we do about it.
