    I'm veggie too. I buy, clean cut & freeze lots of fruits, including bananas. Then I put the bananas & almond milk in a magic bullet to make a frozen custard like topping over a big bowl of fruit. So yummy! So few calories. Healthy. Toss nuts or top with cinnamon or nutmeg. So good!

    I'm vegetarian with an open diary and I log every day but I'm on 1600 net/day. I can see fruit putting you over - I usually limit myself to 1 1/2 pieces/servings a day, but vegetables are very low cal... Try adding vegs a little at a time like to scrambled eggs, soups, sandwiches, etc. I don't know how you can be meeting your nutritional needs without eating veggies.

    I've been thinking of getting a magic bullet... I may be convinced after hearing that frozen banana tip!

    Today I'm making one of my all time favorite meals, even better next day!

    Cut up strawberries, halve green grapes, chop celery and green onion. Add tarragon and spritz with lemon or lime juice.

    If you can stop yourself from tasting it and eating it all, let it marinate.

    I know, I'm not giving amounts, because I use what I have on hand, and to taste. Normally 2 c strawberries, 2 c grapes, 1 c celery, 1/4 to 1/2 green onion for an idea of my portions.

    You can mix with avocado, or mayo if desired. Top with sliced almonds. Serve on a lettuce leaf. Tastes so good!

    My sis won an award with the recipe decades ago. (Not veggies, she adds chicken). Been making it, loving it and sharing it with others who love it completely too, for decades. They always want more.

    I eat it with crackers or wheat thins as a side. Not many calories, so you can eat lots of it!
