Nutty Peaches and Greens
My Nutty Peaches and Greens is a simple recipe that ads some delicious fruit and veggies to your meal. Use it as a side or add some shrimp for a little more protein, and it’s pretty much a meal. Arugula is a lot like spinach (minus the iron content), peaches are high in water, potassium, fiber, and vitamin A and C. The nuts help provide that rich, crunchy, and heart healthy spin on the meal. Top it with a little sea salt, which is lower in sodium, pepper, and splash in some extra virgin olive oil and lemon for your dressing

Description
Often clients tell me that they have little time to eat healthy. They say that they don’t know how to prepare or cook veggies, or that eating healthy is expensive. While I understand and sometimes feel the same way, it really doesn’t take very long and you don’t have to be a cook. Also, it’s not really that expensive to add a little health to your meals.
