(HealthDay News) -- Everyone knows it's important to eat a lot of vegetables. But how can you eat more of these healthy foods without upsetting your routine?

The American Dietetic Association offers these suggestions:

• Top your favorite pizza with zucchini, tomatoes, mushrooms, spinach, green peppers or broccoli.
• Lunch on a whole-wheat wrap filled with roasted vegetables.
• Instead of chips, dip crunchy veggies into some low-fat salad dressing.
• Throw some veggie kabobs on the grill.
• Top salads with extra veggies, such as carrots or grape tomatoes.
• Keep a stash of pre-cut veggies on hand for snacks and meals.
