Christina Cooks: Back to the Cutting Board

Oh, Spicy!

Season 6 Episode 609

We love the little cliché that variety is the spice of life, but do we understand it? It means that stimulation is the key to vitality and however you see that is what will work for you. In terms of food, nothing…and I mean nothing stimulates us physically quite like hot spice, from ginger to chilies, adding spice to your life is easy, yummy and contributes to living our healthiest lives.
