Add a Bit of Color to Your Plate

As a Home Care in Springfield, we cannot let you eat the same dull brown or white meal. Add spice to your meal by adding color.

From the good hearts of the American Heart Association, we are sharing with you how to add color to your meal: by adding more fruits and vegetables to your dishes. As a Home Care Provider, it is important for us that you enjoy delicious and nutritious meals. Here are the colors and some corresponding fruits or vegetables to create your rainbow meal:

• Green:
  Artichokes, avocado, celery, green beans, green grapes, kiwis, okra, pear, watercress, and zucchini.
• Blue and purple:
  Acai, blackberries, eggplant, figs, grapes, plum, purple asparagus, purple cabbage, purple carrots, and purple peppers.
• Red and pink:
  Apples, beets, cranberries, pink banana squash, pink grapefruit, red peppers, red radishes, rhubarbs, strawberries, and tomatoes.
• Orange and yellow:
  Butternut squash, carrots, corn mangoes, orange, orange peppers, peaches, pumpkin, sweet potato, and turmeric.
• White:
  Banana, cauliflower, coconut, garlic, mushroom, onion, parsnip, potatoes, and radish
