I always look forward to receiving Homemaker's magazine in the mail each month. It is usually full of good health advice like the comprehensive article in this issue on migraines. Articles on a range of personal or global issues are often included - this month, a guide to affording university for your children. Above all, the mouth-watering recipes help me find new ideas and menus for those nights when no one can decide what to have for dinner.
This particular issue contains a number of great recipes. Spinach, an often despised leafy vegetable, known for giving Popeye his strength, is featured this month. Touted as a superfood due to its iron content, it also has many other benefits. It contains a mix of phytochemicals thought to aid in the defense of certain cancers. It also has one of the highest ratings for antioxidants, protecting against heart disease and is a top source of the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin which may reduce cataracts and macular degeneration. In short, it's good for our cells, our heart and our eyes. Spinach and Cheddar Dinner Rolls, Spinach Pizza and Chinese Spinach Pies are a few of the spinach-infused dishes.
Who can ever have enough recipes for chicken, one of the most versatile meat choices on the market? In the section World Class Chicken some unusual spice combinations from different countries produce delicious offerings such as Spanish Chicken with Roasted Potatoes, Roast Chicken with Thai Flavours, West Indian Citrus Chicken and Filipino Coconut Chicken Adobo.
Finally, don't forget to indulge your sweet-tooth with the Sweet + Easy recipes like Blueberry Crumb Cake, Swiss-Style Lemon Cheesecake, and Thin Apple Tart. Loads of pictures help whet the appetite, which is not difficult to achieve when it comes to dessert.
