This recipe is a tribute to the article I wrote about the powerful health benefits of curcumin (the active ingredient in turmeric). Packed with omega-3 fatty acids for additional anti-inflammatory benefits and high levels of vitamin C, iron, protein and antioxidants. This is a perfect low calorie dish for those cold winter nights.
