Seaweed is a super-food, great for snacking or tossing into a soup or other dish. In Hebrew, it’s called “the green vegetable that floats on the sea” (Mishnah Shabbos 2:1). If it seems strange to you, just think of it as sushi without the rice and fish.
Bulgur wheat is sometimes called the “whole grain for busy people” - a great, easy-to-prepare source of fiber. It’s made by an ancient process that originated in the Middle East. The Amazon description includes recipe suggestions.
Nutritional yeast has nothing to do with baking and cannot make dough rise — it’s a delicious, nutritious, gluten-free staple (some compare the taste to cheese): a source of B vitamins, fiber, and protein. Serving suggestion: use on popcorn instead of butter, sprinkle on a salad, or add to a soup.
Cocoa contains significant magnesium, zinc, and antioxidants and flavanols that boost memory, lower LDL cholesterol, and improve cardiovascular health. This brand is one of the few that have tested favorably regarding lead and cadmium contamination.
A serving of dark chocolate is almost as good for you as a cup of Aztec-style hot cacao. This brand is one of the few that have tested favorably regarding lead and cadmium contamination.
