So you’ve heard that three’s a crowd and somehow you’ve allowed that saying to rule your choices on how many different vegetables you eat in any one day?

Well, I’m here to say I believe that three’s a minimum, not a crowd. The English used to have meat and three veg for dinner (back in the days when everybody ate vegies!). Let’s at least eat three veg at every meal. If you eat a decent meal including plant food twice a day, that makes six vegetables. If you add a fresh fruit and vegie smoothie to your day, you can easily bump it to nine.

Now that’s more like it.
