    Royal quinoa is a reddish, high-protein variety of quinoa grown in parts of Bolivia. It's particularly nutty tasting, especially if you toast it in the pan before cooking. I serve this salad as a main dish.

Lemon Dijon Salmon - AICR: Email - Health-e-Recipes - 0 views

    If you're looking for a quick, nutritious and flavorful dinner tonight, you've come to the right place. Requiring only a handful of ingredients and taking less than 20 minutes to prepare, this lemon Dijon salmon is the perfect alternative to quick-fix frozen dinners.

WHFoods: The World's Healthiest Foods - 0 views

  •  
    129 foods that can serve as the basis of your Healthiest Way of Eating. Links to the articles about these foods can be found below. Of course, there are many other nutritious foods other than those that we have included on our list that we feel are wonderful, health-promoting foods; if there are other whole foods - such as fruits, vegetables, nuts/seeds, whole grains, etc - that you like, by all means enjoy them. Just because a food is not on our list doesn't mean that we don't think that it can be included in a diet geared towards the Healthiest Way of Eating as long as it is a whole, natural, nutrient-rich food

Sesame Salad Dressing - Dr. Weil's Healthy Kitchen - 0 views

  •  
    This salad dressing has some unusual ingredients for an outstanding flavor. The small amount of steamed zucchini gives the dressing some of its texture, and the combination of garlic, lemon juice and soy gives the dressing its zip. It is great on a salad of Asian or baby greens, or try it over steamed asparagus or broccoli.

Recipes for Health - Add Nuts to Your Diet With Sauces, Not Snacks - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  •  
    If you simply snack on nuts, it's easy to eat too many. A more sensible way to work them into your diet is to make some of the delicious Mediterranean and Mexican nut-based sauces and dips that I'll be offering here this week. They keep well in the refrigerator and can be used to accompany fish, vegetables or poultry. Many serve as a spread or dip with pita or bruschetta - or just eaten on their own.
