  • Heart Health Tip: Use salt-free seasoning blends on meat and seafood instead of table salt to keep blood pressure down.
  • Cooking Tip: Add extra zing and antioxidants by zesting citrus fruit and adding it to your dish. If you don’t have a lemon zester, a vegetable peeler will work. Peel the colorful zest away and avoid peeling the white pith. Chop finely.
