Raspberries

Delicate but delicious!

Unlike blackberries, raspberries have a hollow center. This means that you need to be a little bit more careful while handling them but it also means they are easier to eat. One cup of raspberries has a paltry 64 calories so don't be afraid to dig in!

Raspberries Recipes

Raspberry Chicken for the George Forman Grill

4 boneless chicken breasts (or however many you need)
6 Tbsp crushed rasberries
2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp minced horseradish
1 tsp minced garlic
1 Tbsp cornstarch

(If you've been thinking about getting a George Foreman grill, now you have an excuse to buy one.. They are great so don't worry about that.)

Grill the chicken until done, about 3½ minutes. Mix everything else in a pan, bring to a boil, then simmer for a few minutes. Pour this over the chicken and serve.

Raspberry Salsa

2 cups raspberries (frozen or fresh)
½ tsp ground cumin
½ bunch cilantro, chopped
¼ cup chopped scallions
1 medium jalapèno pepper, finely chopped
3 Tbsp virgin olive oil
salt & pepper to taste

Combine everything being sure to break up the berries a bit. Serve with pork, chicken or fish.
