I just made the BEST dinner! My boys gobbled it up, I mean devoured. So, why is this fascinating news? I used Taste of Italy in my recipe! I'm so in love with this EO, not only for its amazing ability to turn any Italian dish into a masterpiece, but for its therapeutic capabilities as well. Oh, and if you are wondering, you can ingest all of our oils!!
Here's the list of ingredients:
Basil (Ocimum basilicum)† leaf oil,
Oregano (Origanum vulgare)† aerial
parts oil,
Oregano (Origanum minutiflorum)† aerial parts oil,
Oregano
(Origanum onites)† aerial parts oil,
Oregano (Origanum majorana)† aerial
parts oil.
4 Oregano's Y'ALL! Wondering why oregano is such a big deal? Here's the low down. Oregano is antiaging, antifungal, antiparasitic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, immune stimulant, antinociceptive, radioprotective, and a liver protectant. We can't forget about the Basil! Here's the low down on this bad boy. It's a very powerful antispasmodic, antiviral, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and muscle relaxant. Blown away, right?! I feel it is safe to say we need to throw out the old idea that these 2 oils are only for cooking. Look at all the ways it can help our bodies! These oils can excite the skin so if applied topically please dilute it with a carrier oil such as organic coconut oil. One more thing, my recipe!
Ground Turkey Cupcakes
Ingredients:
1 pound ground turkey
2 cloves garlic
1/2 cup white onion
1 egg
1/4 tsp. Kosher salt
pinch of pepper
1 tbsp. EV olive oil
1 cup Panko
16 cubes small Mozzarella cubes
1/2 Parmesan cheese
Taste of Italy
Sauce:
15 oz. Organic tomato sauce
1/4 cup red wine
1/2 tsp. Kosher salt
1 drop Taste of Italy
Directions:
Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl combine Panko, olive oil, and 1/2 of the Parmesan cheese. Mix it around really well by hand to assure it gets coated. In a separate large bowl combine egg (slightly beaten with Taste of Italy (dip a toothpick into the oil and use only the amount on there to mix in), salt, pepper, garlic, onions, the rest of the Parm cheese, and ground turkey. Mix by hand. Grab your muffin pan and coat it with some olive oil so it won't stick to the pan. With your meat mixture, fill up only half the muffin cups. Then gently shove a cheese cube into the middle of each cup. Cover up the cheese cubes with the rest of the meat mixture. Once that is done, grab your Panko mixture and cover the tops of the cupcakes. Cook in oven for 25 minutes.
While the meat is cooking, grab a saucepan. Mix together all the ingredients for your sauce. Simmer on low till your main dish is complete. When the meat cupcakes are ready let them sit for about 5 minutes. When the kids can't handle the wait any longer, dish them up and smother with sauce. Enjoy!
Yum!!!! Can't wait to try!
