If you leave in North America, you can access pretty much any fruits and vegetables any time of the year. The beauty though is to take advantage of the seasonal ones and create recipes unique to the season, it just feels more authentic!


Pomegranate is so abundant these days that I try to maximize their consumption, they are full of health benefits, a great antioxidant, and are delicious, weather raw seeds, juiced, or puréed, all equally tasty. Here’s the easiest way to use them, toss them on a salad, the low carb winter zucchini pomegranate salad. Serve it as a aide to any dish or just by itself.


Note: Ideally you want to spiral your zucchinis but when a spiralizer is not accessible, a grater will do.
