Have you heard of the healthy plate?

The healthy plate is a simple concept: Just divide your plate into two and fill one side with fruits or vegetables. Try a side salad or some steamed or raw vegetables. On the other side, add a starch (e.g., potatoes, rice, pasta) and a source of protein (e.g., eggs, meat, poultry, fish, peanut butter), each taking up one quarter of the plate. For the perfect side dish or dessert, add a dairy product. Easy, right?
