    Have you tried green smoothies at all? They can help boost your veggie intake by quite a bit, I have one for breakfast almost every day, and I've practically had all of my "recommended" servings of veggies for the day right there, plus I eat lots more throughout the day.

    My go-to recipe is
    1.2 cup cold water
    1/2 head of romaine lettuce
    1/2 large bunch of spinach (at least one cup)
    2 stalks of celery
    2 kiwis
    1 pear
    1 banana
    blend in order until smooth, and you can always mix in different fruits or veggies depending on your tastes...sometimes I add kale or swiss chard or a bit of fresh parsley, or switch the banana for a mango, the pear for an apple etc...coconut milk ice cubes :D, it's very versatile, just make sure you have a good selection of greens in there, and play with it :) It usually makes enough for at least two servings, but it keeps well in the fridge covered for a few days, or make lots and freeze it if you prefer.
