Rainbow chard, red onions, mushrooms, bacon, and scallions all baked up in a quiche, with an almond crust! Colors are tasty!

Yesterday, I made chicken, green, red and yellow peppers, purple onions, and mushrooms on a bed of lettuce. It was so colorful and yummy! Peppers really add color plus vitamins and nutrients.

Kim 27 — how do you cook Kale? I recently read Kale has a so many wonderful vitamins and nutrients plus a ton of fiber. However, I’m having trouble getting past the rough texture.

I never thought about adding color to my meals. I’ve enjoyed so many other tips from Kashi. Now, I’ll have to try this one. Veggies make the job so much easier!

I love grilled chicken (strips) salads with lots of cucumbers and onions… pour on the salad dressing… lite or fat free, of course. Top that with some cheese and almonds or pecans. Mmmm!

Since I attend college and live alone, it’s always most convenient to cook a large meal Sunday evening to last me a few days. One recipe in particular that I favor has tons of brightly colored vegetables and tastes better the longer it sits. It’s also completely vegetarian! *For best results, use all organic :-)

I sautee 1 chopped red onion at the bottom of a large stew pot in olive oil until translucent. Then I add 1 chopped red, yellow, and green pepper. If you like a bit of spice, add a chopped jalapeño. Next, I use pre-cubed extra firm tofu to add into the mix. I squeeze the juice of 4 limes over everything before adding 1 can of low sodium black beans, corn, and 2 cans of chunky tomato sauce. After everything simmers for about 10 min., I add liberal amounts of freshly chopped cilantro, stick the lid on the pot and let it cook on low for about 20 more min. Serve and top off with some sea salt and pepper but be sure to taste it before seasoning as it will already be so full of flavor you may find you’re able to skip on the latter.

So, so fresh and delicious! :-)

o man i miss my moms cooking!

You can start your day eating a colorful meal. For breakfast I saute red, orange, yellow & green peppers with onions with a tablespoon of Olive oil in a non-stick pan. Add 1/2 cup egg whites/egg beaters, sea salt & pepper, when cooked top with a 1 oz slice of Light Muenster cheese. Add 2 slices of whole wheat toast and you got fiber, your rainbow of peppers and protein. It’s very filling also.

I cut up all my veggies and got them in the bowl one type at a time, it even looked like a rainbow!!! It was so pretty I didn’t want to stir it but I was hungry!!! Hahahaa it was the best taco salad every! All fresh ingredients tomato, cabbage,red onion, black beans, green and orange peppers, gound turkey, and tasty organic chips. mmmmm

Hey there I just joined the community and I am just back from lucnch after seeing this challenge I did go out and got myself a rainbow coloured meal. It feels great.

What’s better than a colorful salad? Nothing could be better for your body, and it tastes just as great!

I love to cook and have been doing some different things with fresh fruit and vegies and my family loves this. Since it is late summer I still have time for more experiments with salads and one dish meals.

I’m trying to figure out how to get my family to eat vegetables. I’ve been mixing them right in with dinner hoping they won’t pick them out.

Been eating bananas, blackberries and now driking green tea and acai juice when i can. love carrots and salads when not boring, broccoli is cool. peaches still in season. i eat the fruits in season – trying to stick to eating food as “fuel for my body” plus looking to drop 12 more lbs.!

I love carrots, broccoli, salads when not boring, shrooms. will try to eat more health-conscious meals – think “fuel for my body”!

I really enjoy eating salads, there are a just a ton of varieties to make. When you make something you enjoy, it makes the meal so much more tastier.

Most of what I eat these days is beige. I think it’s a side effect of having a newborn: lots of PB sammies or hastily ordered pies.

I really enjoy creating healthy salads in a rainbow of colors, sometimes adding something soy, chicken or fish.

I normally eat colorful meals, but have to admit they are pretty boring. Salads: spinach, carrots, tomatos, etc. In my area, I don’t know where to find a good variety of produce. Any suggestions?

I try to feed my family a salad(this would be the rainbow) at lunch and dinner with a steamed veggie and a protien.

I love veggies but always on the run and they seem to sit in my fridge untill they ruin. Have kale and salad fixings from this wkend grocery trip so will make healthy supper with lots of color before woking out tonight!

How do you cook them?

I always eat rainbow colored meals.Peppers,zuchinni,rootabega,sguash,carrots,celery,and pork. :)
