Do any of your food choices have a story or sentiment behind them? FOOD can bring us comfort and joy from a past memory.. this is a form of GOOD NOURISHMENT!
My grandpa had the biggest personal garden I've ever seen, to this day. He took great care of his plants & they flourished! As a little girl, I would raid his sweet peas & green beans. He would "pretend" scold me with a huge smile on his face. I wasn't "in trouble", he loved that I ate right from his garden. His favorite to grow was RADISHES! The bigger, the better. He would pick, wash, cut, then put them in a Mason jar filled with cold water, right into the frig. He snacked on them all times of day. Today, I do the exact same thing! And when I do, I always think of him 🙂❤️
RADISH have many health benefits, even the greens! The greens are rich in vitamins C & K and magnesium. They reduce memory loss and protect lung tissues against oxidative stress & damage.
TRY THEM in a salad, in a pesto, on a sandwich, or sautéed in garlic & oil, yum 😋
I'd love to hear your sentimental food story! Please share a food & it's memory.
