Not everyone enjoys eating their veggies. However, it is an essential part of leading a healthy lifestyle. Here are 10 creative and tasty ways for you to incorporate greens into your everyday life.

1. Smoothies

Smoothies are a fantastic way to sneak veggies, such as spinach, kale, and carrots into your body without tasting them at all!

2. Baked Goods

Zucchini, carrots, and spinach all fare very well in baked goods. If you've never tried chocolate chip zucchini bread, you need to!

3. Oatmeal

Adding zucchini to your oatmeal can give it a great new texture!

4. Pasta

Whether you put veggies in marinara sauce or put your classic broccoli in mac and cheese, adding veggies to pasta is an easy and delicious way to make your pasta dishes even more nutritious!

5. Kale Chips

These babies are so tasty that you'd never know they're veggies. Some olive oil, salt, and pepper are all you need before popping them in the oven!

6. Rice

I'm talking veggie rice. Cauliflower and broccoli both make great alternatives to regular rice!

7. Zoodles

Zoodles, also known as zucchini noodles, are another great replacement for a classic food. Zoodles can replace pasta in many of the dishes you love, and you won't even know the difference!

8. Eggs

Omelettes and scrambles are a great way to incorporate veggies, like spinach, peppers, and onions into your daily breakfast!

9. Juices

Similar to smoothies, by combining veggies with other fruits in the juicer, you can create some really tasty beverages!

10. Pizza

Who doesn't love pizza? Top it with your choice of veggies to make a great thing even better!

So, there you have it! 10 creative and tasty ways to help you incorporate more greens into food you eat everyday! Enjoy!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
