Today's Takeaway Tip: Shake up your diet! Eating the same foods repeatedly not only causes boredom (one of the top reasons people abandon their healthy diets), but may also make it harder to lose weight. Trying broccolini, in the Garlicky Broccolini recipe, rather than the more familiar broccoli, makes your food plan that much more interesting!
