Summer is officially here. There is so much fresh produce available to us this time of the year that it makes it easy to follow the DASH, MIND or Mediterranean diet.
These diets have been shown to improve some of the markers for certain diseases by decreasing inflammation. And to make an important point yet again: All the foods have a deep, vibrant color and lots of antioxidants.
Make this recipe with whatever fresh vegetables you find. If you don’t like cornbread, you can use day-old crusty Italian bread.
