How fitting that this pink beauty enhances your beauty (and health) as well. Radishes are rich in silica, which strengthens skin, hair and nails. So I typically add them to fresh juices when I’m looking to give my skin a little extra love….
RECIPE
Carrot Ginger Soup
Ginger and carrots….yessss. This soup is simple, healthy and nourishing, and always incredibly delicious….
Grilled Ginger Chicken Salad w/ Shirataki Noodles
Tonight’s dinner is an all-time favorite….lean protein with lots of sautéed and fresh vegetables. The key to making it super delicious is 1) the freshness of the ingredients, 2) the seasoning, and 3) sautéed basil. I’ve made variations of this dish throughout each week for years, and it’s still as wonderful and satisfying. If you’re on a strict anti-inflammatory cleanse, just omit the tomatoes and you’re good to go….
Cauliflower & White Bean Soup w/ Caramelized Leeks
This is a super creamy & delicate cauliflower & bean soup. It’s delicious on its own, or with caramelized leeks that make it a bit more savory. If you’re on a strict anti-inflammatory cleanse, you can omit the white beans and paprika. It will change the consistency a bit but will still taste as delicious….
California Blackened Salmon Salad
This is my favorite way to prepare salmon. The herb seasoning results in a savory, spiced salmon that’s super delicious. (It’s also a perfect seasoning for chicken.)…
Anti-Inflammatory Spiced Ginger Tea
This is such a wonderfully cleansing tea to drink throughout the day — a mix of fresh ginger root, turmeric root, cinnamon, and fresh lemon create a warming spiced cider. Most importantly, these ingredients reduce inflammation in the body. Use the recipe below to maximize its anti-inflammatory effect, or feel free to add a dash of cayenne pepper or fresh honey to taste.
…Quinoa Veggie Bowl w/ Sautéed Brussels Sprouts
Yet another quinoa bowl. But they’re just too perfect…convenient, delicious, and a supremely satisfying way to get a balanced meal rich in minerals, nutrients, and protein. There is no real structure to this dish. Play around with the vegetables you have handy and experiment to find which combinations you like most–carrots, onion, daikon radish, red radish, basil, arugula, beets…they are all delicious options….
