What's in your refrigerator?

It varies household to household. The standard ones are probably eggs, milk, bread and juice. Maybe some cheese, tomatoes?

On an average very few refrigerators have fresh vegetables and fruits, yogurt or hummus. In spite of all the buzz about organic foods, eating healthy, more fruits, nuts and veges, few have changed over.

The best way I've found to balance a vegetarian diet is to have everyday at the dinner table, at least the recommended servings of vegetables, fruits, bread, nuts and grains. Dividing and alternating them every other day if you are not able to accommodate all in a day's meal may be a good way to balance the week's nutrition. Desserts, alcohol and any other fatty food items may be restricted to one weekend day of the week. This way you are able to enjoy everything in balance.

What's for dinner today?
