Explanation:

1. By looking at the list of what Jamie ate, we can identify fruits and vegetables. Orange juice is from oranges (fruit). Lettuce in the salad is a vegetable. Tomato sauce is made from tomatoes (fruit).
2. To include more fruits and vegetables, Jamie could replace snacks like candy - bars and potato chips with fresh fruits or raw vegetables. For example, have an apple or carrot sticks instead. Also, adding more vegetables to the hamburger like lettuce, tomato, and onion, or having a side - salad with lunch would increase the intake.

Answer:

1. Orange juice, lettuce, tomato (from tomato sauce)
2. Replace snacks with fresh fruits/vegetables, add more vegetables to main meals.
