Antioxidant Sprinkles

Adapted from Rosemary's Remedies

Use this herb blend in abundance! It is a great immune boost that is simple and tasty to use everyday...on salads, soups and vegetables. Bonus: Sesame seeds provide calcium and they soften and enhance the flavor of the dried herbs. Seaweed too is a great source of minerals and adds a subtle Unami flavor.

Lately I've been buying my dried herbs and spices from Vitacost.com. I find I can purchase a pound of Organic Frontier brand for the price of 2 small jars of store-bought. I've compared, and there is a huge difference in flavor between standard grocer brands and Frontier. --I'll never go back to buying lesser quality herbs. If you're not up for a pound, check out Mountain Rose Herbs online store for great quality (smaller) bulk options.
