Giada Delivers a Power Boost

Giada De Laurentiis delivers a new menu of power boosting recipes in her new episode Power Boost aired on January 7,  2012 on the Food Network Channel. Giada's menu today included Baked Halibut with Arugula Salsa Verde, Blueberry Frozen Yogurt, Turkey, Kale and Rice Brown Soup, and Rise and Shine Juice. Everything looks healthy and delicious and I personally cannot wait to try it!

I plan on making everything on the menu but the Baked Halibut with Arugula Salsa Verde. My husband is allergic to seafood. I cannot wait to try the Blueberry Frozen Yogurt. I am always looking for healthy snacks my kids can eat. Blueberries contain natural antioxidants and one cup of blueberries gives the body 24 percent of vitamin C it needs a day.

The Rise and Shine Juice speaks for itself. How could anything made with spinach, apples, carrots, celery, lemon and ginger not be good for you? Giada uses a juicer. I do not have one, so I am going to use a blender and chop the food up into tiny pieces before starting the juicing process.

I cannot wait to try the Turkey, Kale and Brown Rice Soup. I think this soup will be excellent to have on a cold snowy day. Kale is a great source of fiber and is loaded with antioxidants and beta-carotene.It has also been shown to help prevent osteoporosis.

I am so excited to cook these healthy recipes. I will be posting my review along with pictures soon. Please share if you will also be trying these recipes and what your thoughts are.

Giada has done it again! :)
