I actually did a lot of work to figure out how to eat healthier in a more sustainable way. I wrote a spreadsheet to tally what my diet looked like and what I might be missing nutritionally, found good sources of those missing things and picked ones that I liked the taste of.

Carrots are a good source of vitamin A so I eat them pickled or in salads

Guava is a good source of potassium and vitamin C and I just eat them straight because theyre tasty.

Broccoli has vitamin C and K so I mix them into mac and cheese or eat them with spicy hummus.

Green onions have a lot of vitamin K in them so I use them in salad, on burgers, wherever you would use onions.

Jalapenoes are another good source of vitamin C so they go in salad, on sandwiches, burgers etc. anything I want to be a bit less bland.

Sweet peppers are a good source of vitamin C, are colorful and have antioxidants so I either put them in salad or eat them with hummus.

Avocadoes are a good source of healthy fat, fiber and potassium so I either eat them straight, on sandwiches, or in salads.

Frozen peaches usually have vitamin C added to them and are available when fresh peaches generally aren't so theyre a good source of vitamin C while being tasty

Krautburgers can have shredded carrots, cabbage and mushrooms in them.

Burritos you can have tomatoes, green onion, olives, jalapenoes and beans.

Yogurt and fruit

Fruit salad
