  • DietID_TeamDietitians I loved the water episode especially with all the scenes of bowl cooking in India

Crickets are all the rage because they are 60%-70% protein and take much fewer resources to grow and process, unlike other popular sources of protein
  • RobynShapiro Thanks for the great feedback last night! In addition to having loads of protein, crickets are also high in omega-3 fatty acid, iron, fiber and even calcium.

  • sugardetoxme I always do tomato sauce or gazpacho!
  • olivettefarm Tomato jam or chutney are top on my list! Storing your tomatoes in a cool, dark space will help slow down the ripening/over-ripening process.
