Happy Med Month! We are saluting the traditional Mediterranean Diet throughout the month of May and what better way to kick off the celebration than a list of our favorite Med recipes? All of the following recipes are from the Med Instead of Meds curriculum developed by nutrition and health professionals from NC State University and NC Division of Public Health.
A bit more about Med Instead of Meds from the program website: "Eating the Med Way has been proven to protect against chronic illness. In some cases, eating the Med Way may even result in decreasing medications taken for blood pressure, high cholesterol, or diabetes.* Hence the name Med Instead of Meds. We are passionate about providing people with the information and tools needed to make delicious meals for themselves and their families. We too are on this journey with you to transform our eating to the Med Way. *Check with your health-care professional before changing any prescribed medications."
On to the favorite recipes. These are in no particular order - it was too hard to rank them! Click the recipe name or image to see the full recipe on the Med Instead of Meds website.
