While it might take some getting used to, including bitter veggies in our daily diets serves not only to surprise our taste buds a little, as they also share some common health benefits: They’re reported to aid the liver […]
Read More ›One of the nice features of Paleo cooking is the endless spice and herb options we have at our fingertips. Being the fan of turmeric, ginger (and a little bit of heat via green chiles) that I am, it’s only fitting that I also love a bit of curry now and then. My own favorite […]

While I first enjoyed them fresh from the Wednesday Farmer’s Market in downtown Kona, I will occasionally pick them up here at home, from my nearby Whole Foods.
