Salt-bath the chicken. Pat thoroughly dry. Salt/pepper cavity generously. Rub bird with EVOO. Salt/pepper underside then place breast up. Stuff cavity with lemon, onion; generously salt/pepper top. Roast 90-minutes or until thigh registers at 165 degree F. After roasting, let bird rest for 10-minutes…and pour juice glass of hot water in the roasting dish; scrape up all the brown bits then use it and juice to serve with the chicken.

While rice doesn’t literally come stocked in the grocery in the color green, it may be “green’d” with an assortment of herbs! Chop up what you like then toss it in with boring white or brown colored rice. Pictured: parsley and edible flowers.

Unconventional Cole slaw made with radishes and mint, splash of vinegar and a few dashes of salt.

Rice is carb-dense and corn is a starchy carbohydrate. Toss these two together then serve up the ideal hand-sized portion for that carb-dense side. Enhance the flavor by broiling or grilling the corn…if charred is one of your favorite flavor-profiles.

Baked, broiled, or grilled - salmon is an excellent fish to herb-up, as well as squeeze fresh fruit juices over, prior to heating through.

A Gwyneth Paltrow recipe that can be quickly pulled from the internet. Option to top with a hearty green and a dollop of sour cream - adds color, and fat.

When fruit is heated through it tenderizes and amplifies the sweet juicy-ness. Many prepare grapefruit for the broiled by topping with some form of sugar - granulated, honey, agave…this enhances the chard-ness. Yet, the act of heating fruit already amplifies it’s sweet flavor! So, I go without the added sugar (because fruit is a natural source of sugar). Broil on low or high - depending on your timeframe.
