Apples are voted kids' favorite fruit, but not just the kids should be eating them. Berries, citrus fruits, pears, bananas, plums, peaches, melons, etc. are great options to incorporate into your meal or for dessert. Although not as nutritious, frozen fruits and vegetables are generally less expensive and can be easy to store and use.
Brown rice, beans, and meat (optional) are a great, easy way to work in protein, vegetables, and grains for a good price. Many cultures view rice and beans as a staple, which is great because beans are full of protein, high in fiber, low in fat, contain antioxidants, and help lower cholesterol,
Dairy can be worked in at any point of the meal. You can have cheese as an appetizer, a glass of milk, a yogurt after dinner, etc. (Tip: put Yoplait whips in the freezer to make "ice cream.")
