Thanksgiving HInts

Clean the turkey tonight, cut the wing tips off (nobody eats those anyway), and simmer them with the neck and giblets--simmer 45 minutes--  remove the meat from the broth, cover  and refrigerate the broth.  Tomorrow, skim the congealed fat from the surface, and you have almost fat free tasting broth to use as a gravy base.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Eat Chocolate Daily!

High cacao content dark chocolate is rich in phenols.  Those flavonoids help reduce blood pressure through production of nitric oxide. (who cares why!)  Eating a small square of chocolate  (no more than 2-3oz) can achieve the benefit.  Those calories can be part of a healthy diet.
