SORREL&MINTCHICKPEAHUMMUSA "greens and beans" powerhouse of nutrition, this

spread's sorrel is an excellent source of Vitamin C (1/2

cupprovidesover50%ofyourdailyrequirements).Both

thesorrelandmintaregoodsourcesofVitaminA,iron(1

cupofmintprovidesjustaboutallthedailyneed!),and

magnesium. The strong lemony flavor of sorrel comes

from oxalic acid, a potential problem for those people

with kidney stone issues. The added chickpeas are a

superb source of dietary fiber (helping to lower blood

cholesterol), protein, copper, zinc, and especially iron.

They contain 10 different vitamins, including folate

(essential to red blood cell development) and provide

CINNAMON&CUMINSCENTEDWHEAT&

MILLETSEEDBREADThe addition of whole seed millet to this bread givesa

nice crunch to its overall texture. Cultivated for over

10,000 years, aside from many vitamins (especially

niacin, B6 and folic acid), millet provides a significant

amountof phyotochemicals,includingphyticacid,which

isbelievedtohelplowercholesterol.
