Hi Ann Musico here. Welcome to the 3D Living Podcast. Today let’s continue with my series, “Healthy Foods from A-Z.” This week we are on the letter D. If you would like to read the post for this podcast visit http://stepstovibranthealth.blogspot.com/2011/01/d-is-for.html
Below is the recipe I mention. You can also see the recipe on the post:

My Daikon Salad – serves 4
2 cups of daikon radish, peeled and grated
1 cup of carrot, peeled and grated
1/2 tsp. raw honey or natural sugar free sweetener like Lakanto*
1 tsp. olive oil
2 tsp. lemon juice, fresh if possible
Natural, unprocessed sea salt to taste
Sesame seeds (optional)

*This balances the flavors – pungency and bitterness.
Gently squeeze out most of the liquid the radish releases and place in your serving bowl with the grated carrot. Mix the oil, lemon juice and sweetener together well and pour over the vegetables. Season with a bit of sea salt. Cover and let sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve. Enjoy!
Approximately 50 calories per serving.

Let me know if you try the recipe – I’d love to hear your ideas as well!

Episode 7 - Boost Your Meals (and Health!) with Herbs and Spices
March 30, 2011 06:29 AM PDT

My all-time favorite strategy for boosting the nutrition of my meals without adding calories is to use as many herbs and spices as possible! They not only make the food more flavorful but more nutritious as well! Especially when you are trying to lose weight, herbs and spices make your meals tasty. One of the most common reasons for slipping off your diet is because the food is boring, bland and tasteless. Experimenting with herbs and spices side-steps that trap!
