#NationalNutritionMonth Tip #16 Explore New Foods and Flavors


Add more nutrition and enjoy a culinary adventure by expanding your range of food choices. When shopping, make a point of selecting a fruit, vegetable or whole grain that’s new to you or your family. As easy as it is to find recipes online you can quickly pick one on your phone and purchase the necessary ingredients. I have a tortilla press and have been making tortillas with masa harina, coconut oil, sourdough starter and a few other ingredients. Masa harina is different than cornmeal and is gluten-free. I serve them with homemade Latin American kraut, cilantro chimichurri, black beans, spinach, tomato and avocado. It tastes like a food truck pulled up to the house! ...I've also made naan with sourdough starter and have experimented with so many wonderful ingredients. The possibilities are so fun and are endless! Note: If you are looking to avoid genetically modified foods, I'd recommend purchasing organic masa harina.
