Saffron is another seasoning with powerful antioxidant properties. I never realized how beneficial spices and seasonings are for our health until I started working with my nutritionist, as I try ingredients in dishes I like to research the health benefits so I have a better understanding of what I am putting into my body nutritionally.
As I begin to look at spices and seasonings used in other cultures it's fascinating all the health benefits that are present.
Sadly, our diets are often not only lacking real food, but also lacking in spices and seasonings in comparison to other cultures.
I was looking at some statistics on WHO today and wasn't really surprised to see that from 2000 to 2019, the US made a jump backwards when it comes to years spent living in good health.
Diet isn't the only thing playing into it, but it's a huge factor. We need to get off our booties and get moving, get outside in the sun without sunscreen (you can do this without burning), eliminate stress (you know, the American dream aka the house, the car, the toys...debt), spend time with family and friends, time in prayer and meditation.
Insanity defined is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Obviously what we have been doing, is not working, we need to CHANGE some things! Is it going to be easy? Probably not, good things rarely are. Will it be worth it? Yep, hard things usually are great teachers if you have the right perspective.
Not sure how I ended up here, ha!
This dish is super mellow in flavor, it's really nice and goes great with any meat I think. I was hoping to have some leftovers with a dish I made last night but Rod had eaten all the leftovers already:(
Add in whatever veggies you have on hand, mix it up! Or make it plain, no added veggies, through in some meat instead, or in addition to veggies. It's a great base to make whatever your little taste buds have a hankering for:)
Dinner last night was really good and I can't wait to share it, but I need to remake it and take pictures because we scarfed it all down before I realized I hadn't snapped a single one.
