Coconut Curry Squash Soup with Pumpkin Spice

September 23, 2024

In The Kitchen

We are looking for comfort foods and anything with pumpkin spice with dropping fall temperatures. This recipe features red kuri squash, a thin-skinned orange-colored winter Squash. You can find this gourd at the grocery store or local farmers' markets. Red kuri squash is a cultivated variety of the species Cucurbita maxima. It looks like a small pumpkin without the ridges. Inside the hard outer skin is a firm flesh with a delicate and mellow chestnut-like flavor. Once cooked, the skin softens and can be eaten, too. Red kuri squash is a good source of fiber. It also provides vitamin A, vitamin C, and some of the B beta-carotene. This squash is perfect with fall spices in this comforting soup. Ingredients: 1 Red kuri Squash, medium sized 2 T unsalted...

A Healthy BBQ Sauce

August 6, 2024

In The Kitchen

Many store-bought barbecue sauces are loaded with added sugar, excess sodium, and unnecessary preservatives. A typical store-bought sauce can contain up to 15 grams of carbs in just 2 tablespoons! Many also use high fructose corn syrup, a heavily processed sweetener linked to heart disease, obesity, and diabetes. That same 2 tablespoons of sauce can also have 200-350 mg of sodium, nearly 15% of your daily allowance. Additionally, these sauces often contain preservatives like potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate, which may increase the risk of inflammation, oxidative stress, obesity, ADHD, and allergies. This is a good reason to make your own sauce. Here’s an easy recipe to try at home. Feel free to tweak it by adjusting the spice or heat to your preference. A Healthier BBQ Sauce Ingredients: ...
