I started last night by adding tomatoes to my homemade mac and cheese bake! I used one can of diced tomatoes as well as two fresh tomatoes. Dinner turned out amazing with all the cheesy goodness and tomatoes! I went back for seconds it was so good and packed leftovers for lunch today!

I think tomatoes are one of my favorite vegetables but there are so many to love. How do you add vegetables (and fruits!) to your every day meals??

Hurray for more veggies! :-) Your day of food sounds so yummy, I just ate breakfast and I am hungry again! Haha.
yum, great idea adding the tomatoes! I add peas to pasta, or onions and mushrooms to scrambled eggs. I also have a smoothie, easy to get 3 fruit servings there.
Veggies are so good in pasta bakes! Over the weekend my vegetarian sisters came over, so I roasted a TON of veggies, then mixed them in a casserole dish with cooked pasta, sauce & cheese and baked it all into gooey yummy goodness!
I added broccoli to my shells and cheese last week! soooo good! :) check it out on my other blog: www.badblueduck.wordpress.com
I love the veggie focus, too... especially for February when there aren't tempting fresh/seasonal veggies all around.
When I was a kid I use to add Salsa or tuna fish to the macaroni for a meal. Both were good.
