Mediterranean Tapenade – Its name comes from the Provençal word for capers, tapenas. A popular food in the south of France it lends a bright, vibrant flavor. Capers, pickled flower buds, are an all-natural and delicious way to bring flavor to a meal without adding many calories and are an excellent source of fiber and vitamin K. Olives are very high in vitamin E and other powerful antioxidants. Studies show that they are good for the heart, and may protect against osteoporosis and cancer. Monounsaturated fats, the kind found in olives, seems to encourage weight loss. Olive oil consumption has been shown to breakdown fats inside fat cells, get rid of belly fat and reduce insulin insensitivity. People who have the highest olive consumption eat fewer calories overall and are rarely overweight. Blood tests show they have higher levels of serotonin, a so-called satiety hormone that makes us feel full.

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.
