Resistant Starch: A Different Kind of Fiber  Have you ever heard of resistant starch? Though starchy foods in general have a bad name, resistant starch actually has surprising health benefits. We outline those benefits, both in this post and in the free handout that we've attached as a grand finale...
What is Resistant Starch?
The Importance of Side Dishes to Balanced Eating  Side dishes are awesome. Most people don't appreciate these nutrient workhorses of healthful meals, but the right side dish actually involves very little extra prep work for a serious health reward. Of course, choosing the right side dish makes all the difference.
For example... Chocolate Poached Pears  Most of the time pears are poached in wine or liqueur. But you can poach them in a light chocolate syrup to give them a light chocolate flavor and warm cocoa hue.
See how easy it is to make them... Salad Tulips  Looking for a new Easter salad idea this year? Take a look at our salad tulips. They are great as one serving or as a way to serve salad on a pretty brunch table.
See how we made them... |
