Honey

Mveler

While at the zoo today we purchased some fresh honey from the Bee Exhibit. I would love to know Healthy ways to use it. I read that this is extremely healthy and can be VERY good for you.

What do you do with your Honey Honey

One of my favorites is summer squash (the kind doesn't matter so much), sauteed with a bit of butter, with a few drops of honey and some mint flakes, and a bit of salt an pepper. On a bed of rice pilaf cooked with turmeric, almond slivers and raisins.

Hi there, Honey is wonderful over sliced bananas or mixed into smashed bananas. Satisfies your sweet tooth and is healthy.

Two GG Crispbreads with a tablespoon of peanut butter, topped with sliced banana,cinnamon, and honey. My absolute favorite snack. Has a little bit of everything.

OK YUM!!!! What exactly is Turmeric? I had another recipe call for this and had no idea what it was. Also calories per servings?

The honey doesn't show calories, Low or high? The label is just that of a simple "Fresh Honey"

That sound's good :P

I'm a bit odd. I love to put it in my water that I drink during work outs. Just a tbsp in a 1 liter bottle, shake until the water looks . . . weird, and all the honey is dissolved. Then drink away while you run / bike / walk / lift / hike / whatever. And Honey is pretty universal on calories I think. 60 calories per tbsp.

Very simple. Use honey in absolutely ANY situation that you would ordinarily use sugar.

erinkeely4

Totally love it in tea and oatmeal as well. I also use it as a glaze for oven baked or pan fried fish! Works really well with salmon, along with lemon juice and dill!

A tbsp or 2 of honey per day is recommended by the medical community for a variety of things including wounds, cholesterol/heart issues, stomach ulcers, insect bites, etc.

Honey is an excellent replacement for sugar in baking.

I'm a beekeeper and use honey to the extreme! Its great on apples, bananas, in smoothies, drizzled on cereal, even in coffee. I use it a lot to make lip balms and salves also, that I sell on esty....

i have a cup of warm water, honey (1 tsp) and lime (1 small) every morning, a little before my workout. It kick starts the metabolism, warms your body up and makes skin glow.

Also u can use some in plain yogurt for a facial, helps firm the skin

Honey with your morning cereal and milk is good too.

i take honey, garlic and chicken broth to mak ea good stir fry sauce.

I use it to make my homemade granola (honey, oats, walnuts, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, cinnamon). Let me know if you want the recipe. We eat it plain, a snack before or after the gym,or with greek yogurt. I like the crunch! Have to be careful to eat in moderation.

Tayla08

I put it on pancakes instead of syrup!
