Weight Loss Wednesday ... sort of

Think of today's tip as a health tip. I recently heard about a wonderful little spice that has so many health benefits.  It's an anti-inflammatory, natural liver detoxifier, may help skin conditions, and even fight cancer. It's Turmeric. Turmeric is an herbaceous perennial of the ginger family.  It's usually used in South Asian and Middle Eastern cooking.  Read more HERE and  HERE

Want to use turmeric but don't know what to do?  It's real easy.  Place equal parts ground turmeric, ground black pepper, and garlic salt in a shaker.  Shake well over washed and cut-up vegetables.  Roast in a greased pan (use olive oil or canola oil) approximately 20 minutes (mixing around half way) in a 400 degree oven and enjoy!
