muffcity can't keep up with all i've really done so far...
Since I quit eating terrestrial meats a few months ago, fruits & veggies taste so much better! This is easier to do now.
How I did it: I eat well generally but I wanted to make sure I was getting the minimum 5 portions of fruit and veg a day. I included fruit/veg with meals. I always have a glass of orange juice in the morning (1 portion). I had fruit/veg (typically banana, baked beans, tomato - each 1 portion) with bread for lunch regularly. Recently for dinner I've been eating lots of mixed fruit/veg including salad, broccoli, carrots, mash potato to name but a few (ranging from 2 to 5 portions depending on how much i eat). Usually some time after dinner I have some fruit, typically an apple (1 portion) and 2satsumas (1 portion).
Lessons & tips: For breakfast have fruit and a glass of orange juice. Maybe banana on toast.
Lunch, simply baked beans on toast, tomato or vegetable soup. Takeaway salads and sandwiches.
Dinner, recently I am having a salad of mixed veg (chopped celery, onions and cucumber; grated carrot, cherry tomatoes, lettuce with a tablespoon (serving 1 person) of olive oil and balsamic vinegar). It is very appetising and healthy, try it!
Other suggestions, mash potato, sweetcorn, peas, kidney beans etc. as sides with cooked meat/soup. Pasta/rice with a tomato sauce with various chopped veg.

I’ve been doing the weight watchers and I’ve been eating more fruit and veg but from my paper food journal I’ve been having about 4 portions a day. Also, I haven’t been filling in my food journal very often in the past few weeks as I’ve not been sticking to my points allowance and I tend to track only when I’m doing well.

About 2 portions of veg, maybe a little more and 4 of fruit.

I’ve been fairly good on and off but I haven’t been mindful of this goal, or of what I’m eating in general since I got back home from Germany.
Today I reckon I got my 5 portions of fruit and veg – I got better as the day went on culminating in a scrummy veg curry.
I also managed to get my portions of crisps, cake and chocolate. :-)
