Adding different herbs and spices can transform an everyday dish like pork chops into a fantastic feast. Many herbs and spices also provide benefits beyond flavor. Cardamom soothes indigestion and mint freshens the breath, while oregano and paprika have antioxidant qualities. Since variety is the spice of life, we’ve selected a range of recipes that are all full of flavor.
Enjoy a family meal of Spiced Pork Chops with Peaches, Sugar Snap Peas with Mint and Chai Rice Pudding. Raid your spice rack all week long with other recipes like Herbed Tomato, Bean and Rice Supper, Spicy Thai Beef and Jasmine Rice, Cheese Herb Zucchini and Rosemary Walnut Ice Cream.
