Great Recipes using The Plate Method

Just a quick post today!  When I teach people how to deploy better nutrition habits, I use what we call "The Plate Method" a LOT.  The USDA now uses it to replace the old "Food Pyramid" that you may be familiar with.  Nobody could ever quite figure out how to eat "in pyramid style" so it was an almost completely useless tool.  Now, we can use this visual plate to help us put the correct proportions of food on our plates!




Anyway, I found this really great Pinterest board of published recipes that conform to this new plate method approach and really wanted to share them with you -- Pinterest MyPlate Recipes

If you try any of them out, give me a shout...I'd love to hear what you thought of them!
