Start the New Year Right with these Superfoods!


Here, you'll find a short list of foods that you really ought to incorporate into your diet—because, frankly, their health benefits are through the roof. But rather than leaving it up to you to figure out what to do with them (sprinkle them on your cereal? push them around on your plate?), we've combined these wonder foods into nine dishes that taste great—as in snack-in-front-of-the-TV great, favorite-weeknight-supper great.

Your eyes tear, you cough, you choke, you cannot believe what you have put in your mouth, you are on fire, and then you are flooded with happiness. This is why Mexican, Indian, and Thai food cheers people.
