Recipe: Celery Caesar Salad
Celery is a tried and true ingredient that goes into EVERYTHING!
It’s part of 👩🏻🍳 the French Mirepoix (celery, onion, carrot)👨🏻🍳 the Cajun Trinity (celery, onion, green pepper) and 👩🏽🍳 the Italian Sofrito (celery, onion, carrot, garlic, parsley).
It also plays a key role in our favorite protein based salads like 🐔chicken salad, 🐟 tuna salad and 🥚 egg salad.
But today… the spotlight is finally on Celery! 👏👏👏
You’ve probably heard about this celery juice trend sweeping the nation thanks to Anthony William, the “Medical Medium”. He’s been making some big claims on the healing powers of celery.
And much of it is very true especially if you deal with inflammation, dehydration and even ACID REFLUX but…
So is kale, cabbage, radishes, spinach, bok choy… because… they’re all healing and they’re ALL “superfoods”!
But the thing we love about these food trends, is that people are finally appreciating the healing powers of ALL veggies!
As with any trend, there are some negative sides which we talk about in Episode 21 of Simply Seasonal.
