Seasonal Ingredients
Monday, August 3rd, 2009Happy Monday!
Here is something cool I found while poking around the world wide web. It is a seasonal ingredient map from epicurious.com. Choose a month and where you live and you will find a list of foods that are grown in your area in that season. There are also links to recipes.

Eating seasonally allows for our bodies to receive the nutrients it is craving as the earth cycles through warm, wet, cold and dry. An excellent book on the subject is John Douillard’s 3-Season Diet. Dr. Douillard is a leading authority on Ayurvedic medicine based in Boulder, CO.
