American Cancer Society tips

I found a cooking smart guide in the breakroom today, just a few feet from the fat and sugar laden vending machine! Hee!

It is a very nice little reference book and I thought I might share some of the tips with you today.

I'll do my best to update every couple days with more!

Spices to use with what:

Basil: Tomato dishes, fish, soups, salads

Chili Powder: Beans, poultry, soups, stews

Cilantro: Tomato dishes, beans, salad, corn

Cinnamon: Winter squash, sweet potatoes, cooked fruit, baked goods (I might add it is good in chili too - so I hear)

Cloves: Cooked fruits, carrots, squash, poultry

Dill: Fish, rice dishes, salad dressings, potatoes

Ginger: Cooked fruits, seafood, veggie stir fry, breads

Marjoram: Fruit juice, potatoes, poultry, meat

Nutmeg: Beans, apple dishes, seafood, meat
