Spicing up your burger can make it healthier
With spring upon us, who doesn't like a juicy hamburger? New research shows that the way you season your burgers can help make it healthier for you. A recent study compared a burger seasoned with just salt and a burger that was seasoned with a variety of seasoning. The one with the variety of seasoning had 70% less "Lipid Peroxidation products". These "products" are thought to play a role in heart disease and cancer. Read the entire article at Nutriondata.com. Here is the recipe for the "healthy burgers" from the article:
Add this amount per pound of ground beef:
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
