Drinking enough water is one of our most basic and critical health needs. In fact, 75% of Americans are dehydrated, which is why I’ve written an entire book on Water Infusions. Being properly hydrated can help to boost metabolism and energy, promotes healthy digestive and immune systems, helps to flush out toxins, improve skin complexion, and much more.
Okay, this might not be the first thing that occurs to you to do to a head of romaine, but bear with me. Grilling the romaine leaves gives your salad a delicious richness you wouldn’t expect.

Summer’s on it’s way out and so are the last of the season’s fresh tomatoes. This bruschetta recipe makes an excellent appetizer for your end-of-summer soirées! Even better if you can get all the ingredients fresh from your local farmers’ market. This recipe is from The DASH Diet Cookbook.
When my husband and I went on our honeymoon in Italy, we took cooking classes and brought this recipe home with us.

Buon appetito!
