| WHAT ARE THE BEST WINTER VEGETABLES? |

|
|
Did you know that certain foods actually help your body to stay warm? Not only do these winter vegetables help to keep your body warm, they are anti-oxidant rich. Loaded with vitamins and minerals, winter vegetables are the best kind of hibernation foods. We're talking about potatoes, carrots, cabbage, onions, winter squash and leafy greens. It is time for kale, cabbages, and their relatives, time for artichokes, cooked into soups, stews, casseroles and side dishes.
If you like to eat salads, try eating salads that are more root vegetable, bean, or grain oriented, rather than the usual leafy green salads. Or add a little meat to your green salad. It is also a time of the year that you may want to eat a little more meat than in the summer months.

| TOP TEN STEPS TO PERFECT PASTA |

|
|
 |
One of the best reasons for eating pasta is that, in 15 minutes from start to finish, you can provide yourself with a complete meal. If you want to enjoy cooking and eating pasta at its best, our advice is to buy good quality. Poor quality pasta often ends up sticky and soggy. Italian tradition is to have lots of food. When it's pasta and sauce alone, 4 oz. per person is fine for hearty appetites. When it's being served with a salad, meatballs, or vegetables in the pasta, 3 oz. per person is ok.
But always plan for an extra person! ..>> See recipes & more |
