Recipes for Health Series
If you haven’t seen it before, you might want to check out the “Recipes for Health”:http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/health/series/recipes_for_health/index.html series from the ??New York Times??. Here’s their description:
bq. Recipes for Health offers recipes with an eye towards empowering you to cook healthy meals every day. Produce, seasonal and locally grown when possible, and a well-stocked pantry are the linchpins of a good diet, and accordingly, each week’s recipes will revolve around a particular type of produce or a pantry item. This is food that is vibrant and light, full of nutrients but by no means ascetic, fun to cook and a pleasure to eat.
Since we’ve been eating quinoa lately, this one caught my eye: “Royal Quinoa Salad With Tofu and Sesame Ginger Vinaigrette”:http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/25/health/nutrition/25recipehealth.html?em.
Also at the Times, more thoughts on “An Almost Meatless Diet”:http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/03/25/an-almost-meatless-diet/ and a few recipes from the new book of the same name.
Incidentally, I had my first chemotherapy treatment yesterday and I’m doing fine.
