Inexpensive Ways to Make Healthy Food Exciting - Mint and Parsley

Making the same foods helps you stay on track and can get boring. I started with mint and parsley - $2 at the Santa Monica Farmers Market.




First I put it fresh cut parsley on top of eggs, collards, onions and goat cheese for breakfast.

Then I made two salads, one with mint, grapefruit juice and olive oil dressing, red cabbage, celery and daikon. The other with broccoli slaw, red cabbage and creme fraiche yogurt dressing.



Last but not least was my super herb chicken. I used a combination of dried poultry seasoning with garlic, white onions, grapefruit juice and plenty of parsley and mint. I marinated the chicken in the juice for a while. Keep the top on throughout cooking to prevent scorching of the fresh herbs.
