This Week’s Bag Featuring Watercress! 5/11-5/12

May 10, 2016 by Justine Espiritu Leave a Comment

This week’s bag features watercress! Watercress has been cultivated across the world for use as both food and a medicine. It contains phytonutrients with a plethora of disease-preventive properties shown to inhibit carcinogens. So when you’re shocked by that peppery spicy taste when you use this green, know that it’s doing your body good! Try it as a salad: chop up both stems and leaves and mix with tomatoes, tofu, cucumbers and drizzle with balsamic vinegar or amino acids. You can also steam it, or try adding to sandwiches. Always remember to washed thoroughly before storage and use. What else is in this week’s bag?
