Hey Ninjaaa23

Main staple bearide foods avalible here in the uk and readily avalible in supermarkets are


Staple diet

- Spring greens ( fresh greens, green, collard greens )
- Endive
- Escarole
- Tatsoi you can get a nice mix in supermarkets called tatsoi mix for about £1 a bag with tatsoi, endive and escorole this is a great staple with a good variety in there.
- and I always have some butternut squash avalible to them very good staple

And these are not so much staple but can have tehn faily often

- watercress
- rocket
- lollo rosso
- frozen green peas
- bell peppers (my guys like Red best)

Hope this helps

easy way to make a fresh green

every day

mixed greens - £1 from tesco for bag, 2 mini tubs of cress, grate 2 carrotts, fresh parsley plant, butternut squash

mix the above (apart from the squash) in a bowl and keep in fridge, give it daily

make butternut maybe twice a week (just skin it, boil it and mash it) they love it !
