The benefits of curry powder are immense - it is composed of effective anti-inflammatory spices which clean and restore the liver. As a result, it is also helpful in treating arthritis. Coconut milk, though it is high in saturated fats, is great for the immune system, and contains many vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes, including potassium, calcium, and chloride. Whip up this simple dish and give your body - and your taste buds - something to celebrate!

 

1 (14-oz) cans low-sodium chicken or veggie broth
1 (14 ½ oz) cans no salt-added diced tomatoes with roasted garlic, undrained (or use regular diced tomatoes and add garlic)
10oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed
1 cup water
1 ½ cups chopped onion
1 medium carrot, chopped
1 medium zucchini, quartered and sliced
1 tsp olive oil
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1 tsp black pepper
½ cup uncooked whole-wheat small pasta (penne, macaroni, seashell, etc.)
2/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Sopmetime there's nothing better than coming home to the smell of dinner cooking...

Don't feel like heating up the kitchen tonight? Haul out the food processor and dinner is esy and delicious!

Group 1:
1 fennel bulb (use the whole bulb and discard the top and stem)
4 celery stalks
1 bunch scallions (use green + tender green)
1 medium sweet onion
3 small cloves garlic
3 red bell peppers

This hearty soup is an excellent starter for a holiday feast, is a breeze to prepare, and can be made ahead of time for convenience. The bourbon enhances the natural flavor of the pumpkin, and the tartness of crème fraîche is a great compliment. It’s becoming my favorite fall soup!

This hearty, delicious soup is perfect for cold winter evenings or as a filling snack!
