It’s Halloween week and we’re spicing things up! Spice comes in many different forms— from the heat of wasabi to the distinct flavor of cinnamon— and from all over the world. Since ancient times, spices have been added to food to provide flavor, color or to act as a preservative. Spicy foods tend to be more satisfying than bland foods, so turning up the heat may help you keep your appetite in check.
Heat up your Halloween with a family meal of Spiced Hot Chocolate, Grilled Eye Round Steaks with Wasabi and Double Cheddar Mashed Potatoes with Horseradish.
Other spicy recipes to try this week include Spicy Roast Pumpkin Seeds, Mexican Quiche, Spicy Pork Stir Fry and Cinnamint Cappuccino.
Be sure to add these and other recipes to your family meal plan and shopping list.
