Chase the winter doldrums from your plate (and kick those creamy comfort foods to the curb) with these fresh, eco-friendly ideas that are bursting with body benefits.
1 / Grow Your Own Herbs
You need a surprisingly small space (hello, one pot!) to reap all the incredible flavor, freshness and cost benefits of growing some of your own herbs. Choose varieties you use often in your cooking (I personally love basil and cilantro). It’s an eco-friendly alternative to buying bunches of different herbs wrapped in plastic and shipped from far-flung locales.
2 / Add Fair Trade Flair to Your Spice Pantry
Stock up on some new Fair Trade–certified spices for more than just a flavor and phytochemical boost. Fair Trade follows specific agricultural, environmental and labor practices that help preserve natural ecosystems and rainforests, both of which act as vital carbon sinks for the planet.

[ Three Ways ] Tropical Punch
Of African origin, hibiscus or Jamaican sorrel, is an important staple in West Indian and Mexican cooking. Hibiscus is sour enough to make you pucker and tropical enough to evoke the islands. Popularly brewed as a tea, the dried petals play well in savory or sweet recipes, too.
You Had Meat Tacos
"When it's done properly, taco should be a verb," declared Jonathan Gold, the late restaurant critic of the Los Angeles Times. Tacos are much more than a meal; they're an action.
