Kitchen Control: The Mediterranean and DASH Diets

Take control in the kitchen with the Mediterranean DASH diet.A combination of the Mediterranean diet and DASH diet could improve your overall health. Adopting the Mediterranean DASH diet doesn't necessarily mean spending hours in the kitchen.

Sample Recipes

Breakfast: One cup of your favorite plain yogurt, a handful of nuts, a handful of fruit and eat with a spoon, or throw the ingredients into a blender for a smoothie.
Lunch: Put pre-cut veggies, dried beans, broth and some spices in a slow cooker overnight.
Dessert: Whip honey or maple syrup with ricotta cheese.

Stock up with these staples and you'll be able to easily whip up a meal: frozen fruits and vegetables plus canned protein (beans, fish, chicken).

This kitchen equipment will make life easier in the kitchen: cookie/baking sheet, pot for soups or pastas, smaller saucepan, skillet.

Listen as Abbie Gellman joins Dr. Pamela Peeke to discuss how you can take control in your kitchen and start implementing this diet.
