NEW BERRY IDEAS FOR THE NEW YEAR
The beginning of each new year presents a convenient opportunity to refresh and rejuvenate a daily routine that may have gone stagnant. Luckily, cleaning up and putting a fresh coat of paint on your current lifestyle doesn’t have to be a drudgery. Focusing on fresh produce and meals that delight your taste buds as well as the rest of your body is a great way to ensure the goals you made on January 1st are still going strong in February and beyond.
Berries are such a wonderful way to introduce healthy foods into your diet because they taste like candy (and before you roll your eyes, Well•Pict Berries actually do taste like candy—if candy tasted even better), but work like the green stuff. Strawberries and raspberries contain specific phytonutrients that aid the body’s ability to reduce inflammation and muscle pain—especially after a rigorous workout. So, if you’ve already bought those new running shoes and made that 8am-hop-on-the-treadmill commitment, know that strawberries and raspberries will make a most excellent post workout pick-me-up. And you gotta love a snack that’s as at home in recipes as it is chucked directly into your mouth, no adornment necessary.
While all our recipes are at least relatively good for you (hey, everyone needs a ridiculously decadent dessert now and then!), the ones below feel and taste especially turn-over-a-new-leafy.
