Fruits and veggies are tough for me - Any ideas?

Generally, I would say I eat pretty healthy but I struggle fitting fruits and veggies in. I prefer veggies over fruit. In fact, sometimes the thought of any fruit makes me gaggy. I have absolutely no craving or desire for them. I can do lots of raw veggies but day after day that gets old. I'd like to squeeze in as many fruits and veggies into my day but yet be able to tolerate them. Any suggestions?

    I recently made this post on my blog for someone looking to incorporate more veggies into their diet - take a look! :)

    Freezer bags of veggies, much easier to prepair, more handy,and I am more likely to eat them if they are easy!

    Just curious, what are you eating that is healthy and doesn't involve veggies or fruit already?
    There are lots of ways to incorporate more. Can you unlock your diary, or give us an idea of what you already eat?
    I prefer cooked veggies over raw. Steam them, sautee them, bake them, puree them and add them to soup/salad/sandwich/baked goods.
