A 5 YUM Dish!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This week’s Dysfunctional Chef Recipe shines the spotlight on blackberries, a.k.a. “black caps,” an extraordinarily healthy food.\u00a0 Black Caps are high in antioxidants, a substance that protects the body by neutralizing free radicals or unstable oxygen molecules, which are known to damage cells and are a source of disease and aging.<\/p>\n

One cup of blackberries weighs in at approximately 62 calories. They are very low in sodium, very high in dietary fiber, as well as high in manganese, magnesium, potassium and vitamin C.<\/p>\n

Blackberries quickly mold when left at room temperature and they last just a couple of days when refrigerated.\u00a0 Therefore, buy them as you want to eat them, or freeze them!\u00a0 Simply wash, cut the hulls off, pop into a zip-lock bag, burp the bag (get the air out), and you can have berries for months to come!<\/p>\n

And NOW for this week’s RIGHTEOUS RECIPE from your favorite Dysfunctional Chef!<\/p>\n
