How do you Salvage Salad Greens?
food52.com
@Food52 recently did this post on salvaging salad greens in soup. I just did this with some leftover tatsoi. Sure some of you have tips. Any suggestions?
-
olivettefarm Love tatsoi! I like to add that to smoothies when I have a ton. I also like to grill romaine heads if they're beginning to wilt.
-
katewilson Those are good ones. My dad loves spinach in his smoothies. And he's a beast behind the grill! Grilled romaine sounds great with blue cheese. @olivettefarm

sugardetoxme I take my wilty kale and turn it into kale chips. Usually add a little cumin or nutritional yeast for added B vitamins. Bet @serveMEnow @gingerandchorizo @Cravingsinamsterdam @JenniferEmilson and...

sugardetoxme Yes, a Singaporean fave

serveMEnow Yes, a Filipino staple. Stinks but delicious. Never knew the stench was a big deal until everyone on the interwebs started trying it. Lol
Would you put 12 teaspoons of sugar in your coffee? Great NY Times piece on the need for better sugar labels and warnings

annefood An easy one is to simply read nutrition labels! Right @manfood ? What are your eating habit change thoughts @Rachna @sugardetoxme @ErikMariscal ?

manfood I would opt for skipping a meat / animal option- think veggies and think helping the planet. We need to eat less meat... Even though it tastes so good, less is more....
Picked up dried mulberries the other day here in Vancouver. What to do with them! I have some ideas, but welcome more suggestions!
-
sugardetoxme I'd love to know what to do with mulberries. Maybe a homemade granola?
-
SimplySeema Love mulberries! I love adding the fresh ones into homemade raw chocolate. It's a delicious sweet surprise. Imagine it would be great mixed in with nuts, cereal or even cookies! What are your ideas...
-
JenniferEmilson I've only ever had them fresh. These have a slight crunch, like figs. I'll either use for granola or porridge topping, or else I'll reconstitute them in safer for baking.
By pairing exercise and nutrition, fitness studios are taking a holistic approach to health- has anyone joined a fitness studio's diet plan?

To help customers avoid derailing their fitness goals with poor eating habits, some gyms are adding custom diets to their services. #foodnews

darkchocolatepeanutbutter I think this is really smart! I wish they had a program like this my YMCA.

DietID_TeamDietitians Especially for weight loss, food is the majority of influence, so it only makes sense to pair nutrition and exercise. But unfortunately in some gyms, I still see some questionable items in the...

garv Can totally relate to this ! In fact , reading it is more exciting than being part of the scene!
What do you think are the biggest issues in food today?
Is it in food production? Distribution? Access? Waste? Consumer education? Legislation? Something else entirely? Would love to hear what you guys think.
-
katewilson I'm voting food waste but I'm thrilled to see how much efforts are being put behind it now
-
darkchocolatepeanutbutter I still feel the dietary guidelines are inadequate. If the USDA could consider the public over corporations, we'd have better direction.
-
sugardetoxme It's two parts for me. Food waste is obviously huge. If good food was about actually feeding people then we wouldn't have hunger, but food has become a business. But let's also talk about the big...
