March is National Nutrition Month, and fortunately this is also the time of year that all different kinds of colorful, nutritious produce become seasonal and more affordable!

For optimal health, the USDA recommends that half your plate be comprised of fruits and vegetables.  Try and incorporate nature’s vast array of colors into your diet for the best nutrient benefit. There are so many different types of fruits and vegetables to choose from, you can easily find something you like!
