November is really sweet, because in addition to being the month of the passion fruit harvest, the fruit of passion, it is also the month of pineapple, acerola, banana-nanica, banana-silver, cashew, green coconut, raspberry, jackfruit, orange-pear , apple, papaya, mango, watermelon, melon, nectarine, peach and tangerine.

Among the greens and vegetables are leek, almond, broccoli, chives, endive, fennel, spinach and grape leaf; zucchini, asparagus, eggplant, beets, carrots, yams, gherkins, turnips, cucumbers, peppers and tomatoes. Phew… A very good variety, usually plentiful and cheap, with many possibilities for delicious and nutritious recipes for everyday life.

Broccoli, which helps in the functioning of the intestine, prevents various types of cancer and reduces cholesterol, I suggest the least cooking possible, just sauté in cooking oil and garlic, it is simple and conserves nutrients.

Grate the beets and season to eat as a raw salad, but if you prefer cooked, use the cooking water to cook the potatoes and make a pink puree, a charm.

The yam is a tuber, an excellent source of soluble fiber and its carbohydrates are complex, rich in vitamins of the complete B, it is good for the heart and for women’s health. Peel the yam and dice, sauté in olive oil with garlic and cherry tomatoes, season with salt and oregano only, it is healthy and tasty.

The dwarf banana is sweet by nature, so peel, chop into slices and freeze. Place the frozen slices in a blender and blend until creamy, return to the freezer and after 3 hours serve the delicious natural ice cream. Add raspberry, it looks divine.

Some vegans are adept at “jackfruit meat”, which in addition to being able to be consumed ripe as fruit, can also be consumed green as a raw material for preparing recipes such as jackfruit coxinha, pastel, among others. The jackfruit is a fruit, with anti-oxidant properties, helps to strengthen the immune system and helps the cardiorespiratory system.

And speaking of versatility, spinach is a wildcard. In addition to beautiful raw salads, he rocks in sautéed or minced meat in the omelet. It is known for its nutritional properties that characterize it as a plant with remarkable ability to restore energy, increase vitality and improve blood quality.

As I mentioned, the possibilities are diverse, what really matters is to experiment, create, renew yourself; make the most of the opportunity to consume fresh ingredients and have better health. And since it is fashionable #peelmore #unwrapless #eatfruit #eatvegetables .
