The Spices of Life
Boost the flavor factor and protect you health by cooking with spices.
In the February 2010 issue, “The Spices of Life” extolled the virtues of spices including turmeric, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, ginger and cumin. Here are some additional recipes to kick up the health benefits, and the flavor, of your entrées.
Carrot Ginger Sauté
The sweetness of the carrots contrasts nicely with the warm spiciness of the ginger.
Sweet Potato Stuffed Bell Peppers Bell
Peppers are high in vitamin C, and the filling (potato, tomato, lentils and sprouts) can be a meal in itself.
Cinnamon Chocolate Fondue
This decadent dessert recipe is adapted from a recipe by chef Cat Cora. Dip fresh and dried fruits to add even more antioxidants to those found in 75-percent dark chocolate.
