The foods you eat might be very healthy. However, you might not know that the leftovers are not less nutritious. Make full use of some parts of the products you consume.
1. Beet greens
The beet season brings us not only the vegetable itself. It comes with the greens! Keep them, especially if they are attached to young beets. The greens are full of fiber and vitamins C, A and K. Chop them up and then saut? the stems and leaves in olive oil. Add a bit of vinegar and eat with pasta.
2. Broccoli and cauliflower leaves and stems
We bet you simply chop off the stems and leaves of cauliflower and broccoli. There are a few reasons why you should not discard those parts of the plants. First, they are healthy since they contain lots of minerals and vitamins. Second, they are rich in fiber too. One more reason why you need them is that both stems and leaves are fragrant and can be used to flavor your dishes.
