Saffron and Honey

Eat Chic

January 5, 2015

Refresh and rejuvenate {winter vegetables + virtuous starts!}

Every January is an opportunity to start fresh and refrain – for a bit, at least – from the indulgences of the season.

Here are some of my favorite winter vegetable dishes that will help you get a healthy start to the year, full of color and energy!

{can you tell I am on my third day of no coffee? it will feel great..eventually}

    Ksenia… no coffee! I am limiting to one cup a day with no dairy. 🙁 I wish you luck! These recipes look fantastic. I especially love that soba noodle salad. Yum! A perfect selection for the new year!

      I know, it’s been very hard! Just a little post-everything detox 🙂

    Colour and crunch are what I crave in winter eating (along with all those warming soups and stews). Your round up of recipes look like they’re perfect for that! Good luck with the coffee detox. Post-holiday, I’ve been drinking a lot of tea and just plain hot water.

    Such a delicious way to kick start the year. I love the look of the zucchini, feta & lemon. Three of my all time favourite’s together!

How do you pâté? My favorite from @3pigspate is the Pork & Chicken Liver Pâté with Armagnac​ aka
“Grandma’s Pâté.” This coarse pâté is made with pork, chicken liver, and spices with a bit of armagnac. All natural and minimally processed, made and sliced by hand and DELICIOUS ❤️ // I like it on a sweet cracker or with pain d’epices!
