Picking and Using Herbs #Healthyliving

I’ve been working on putting in a Creole Garden with Herbs in it. Herbs offer a great opportunity to turn just about any ordinary meal into an extraordinary meal.

Of course if you are growing your own herbs you want to be sure that you get the most out out it. You want to pick it at the best time for both flavor and quality. You also want to store it in such a way that it says fresh the longest.

Does it matter what you eat?

90% of every American food dollar is spent to buy processed food (Food inc.)!  According to a study, published in BMJ Open March 9^th 2016, much of that money is spent on what is called ultra-processed food. That study revealed that on average 57.9% of the calories people eat comes from ultra-processed foods.

Why? Why should we care?
