fruit and veggie serving size

Thought you guys might find this helpful when striving for five fruits/veggies a day-

A serving size is:

-One medium-size fruit
-1/2 cup raw, cooked, frozen or canned fruits (in 100% juice) or vegetables
-3/4 cup (6 oz.) 100% fruit or vegetable juice
-1/2 cup cooked, canned or frozen legumes (beans and peas)
-1 cup raw, leafy vegetables
-1/4 cup dried fruit
