Lately I have discovered that eating canned vegetables has not helped at all with my hunger. As an experiment I recently started eating raw vegetables like crooked yellow squash, zucchini and red and yellow onions.  I simply just cut up and mixed the vegetables in a large bag with my own homemade dressing.  The ingredients are:

• Grape Seed Oil
• Olive Oil
• Flax Seed (liqued form)
• Paul Newman’s Italian dressing
• Salt (just a little here)
• Pepper
• Vegetables

I just dumped all the ingredients in a large Zip Lock bag (didn’t use specific measurements) and shook the bag to mix everything together.  Not only are the fresh vegetables better for you, they taste really good this way too. Not only is this low in calories, it is also great in the good fats. The plus side is that eating my vegetables this way seems to help with the hunger too.  Why don’t you give it a try and let me know what you think.
