Winter is a great time to try seasonal foods and adjust your meals to the colder weather. Many people, especially in the U.S., do not eat enough fruits and vegetables daily. Experts recommend adding winter produce like citrus fruits (lemons, oranges), root vegetables (parsnips, radishes), and greens (kale, radicchio) to your diet. If fresh produce is hard to find, frozen or canned options are also healthy, as long as they do not have added salt or fats. Dried fruits like apricots and nuts like walnuts can add flavor and nutrition to dishes like salads and baked goods. Winter meals such as stews, soups, and porridges are warm and nutritious. These meals can be made in many ways and are healthy for everyone. Adding beans and legumes boosts protein and fiber. Porridges can be savory or sweet and can be flavored with spices like turmeric and ginger, which have health benefits such as reducing inflammation. These spices can also be added to teas and snacks for extra warmth. Cooking and sharing these meals with family and friends can help strengthen bonds and improve your overall well-being.
