Horseradish...

Or something to clear your sinuses!

We are in the mist of Passover, and I am not observing it!  But, it sure  brings back happy memories of growing up!   Bob now makes his own horseradish from scratch and wow, is it yummy! There is nothing like a wonderful piece of prime rib, baked potato with some horseradish cream sauce, made with fat free Greek yogurt, of course, on a special occasion!  HUM!  Time start thinking about one :).

Horseradish is low in Saturated Fat and Cholesterol and high in Dietary Fiber, Vitamin C, Folate, Pantothenic Acid, Magnesium, Potassium and Manganese, Riboflavin, Vitamin B6, Phosphorus and Copper.  The nutritional value of horseradish makes it ideal for maintaining optimum health and weight loss.  It stimulates the body’s immune system and appetite. The juice extracted from horseradish root dissolves the mucus in the nose and thus, releases sinus infections.  Horseradish has expectorant, antibacterial, strong antibiotic, coronary vasodilatator, anti-inflammatory, anti-parasitic, anti-anemic and diuretic properties. 

 Until Monday - keep thinking veggies and protein!
