Did you know you’re supposed to eat at least 3 ounces of whole grains a day? According to the food pyramid, half your daily grains should be whole grains.
When we’re out and about, many people say they know they should eat whole grains but they don’t know why. If you’d like to brush up on why whole grains are the way to go, Healthcastle Nutrition offers a great, no-nonsense Whole Grains Guide.
Being a health food nut doesn’t have to put you in a flavor rut, though! Quite the opposite – we suggest slipping some frozen whole grains into your daily lunch. Between rice and quinoa, you can make hundreds of easy, quick, and delicious dishes, and the complex (good) carbs will give you an energy boost between lunch and dinner!
