Chianti Braised Short Rib – Slow cooked to a to a fall-off-the-bone tenderness. Moderation and portion control is key when enjoying short ribs. A great part of a balanced diet short ribs are an excellent source of complete protein and are also a good source of phosphorous and potassium. Phosphorous works alongside calcium to help build strong bones and teeth. It also aids in energy storage and use and assists with kidney function. Potassium is necessary for healthy heart function and smooth muscle use. It is also an electrolyte and helps to conduct electricity in the body.
Orzo with Pecorino Romano Cream Sauce with Shaved Broccoli and Mushrooms – A six- year study found that Pecorino Romano cheese is not only tasty but is good for you too. Pecorino Romano cheese, made from sheep’s milk, is high in healthy fats essential to a nutritious diet. Pecorino cheese contains high amounts of omega 3 fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), unsaturated fatty acids naturally found in certain food groups that have proven to be very healthy. Omega 3’s are beneficial in preventing cardiovascular diseases, improving immune function, reducing inflammation, improving vision and learning, and slowing down mental deterioration. Antioxidant and cancer-fighting properties are among the health benefits attributed to CLA, which has also shown to prevent arteriosclerosis, is beneficial in improving bone formation and reducing body fat, suppressing diabetes, preserving muscle tissue and stimulating immune function. Usually, Pecorino Romano cheese has 3-5 times higher CLA compared to cow’s cheeses. Additionally, Pecorino contains a good amount of calcium, potassium, and magnesium and is a good source of protein.
Moroccan ratatouille – what distinguishes our ratatouille from the traditional French ratatouille is dates and apricots join yellow squash and red bell peppers. Yellow squash is high in manganese, a mineral which helps the body process fats, carbohydrates, and glucose.
One order provides approximately 1 serving, 13 oz.
