FOOD
Healthy side dishes: Skip the heavy,
creamy salads and opt for steamed broc-
coli and cauliflower with a light, flavourful
yoghurt-based sauce. This fresh twist on
the classic cauli-cheese is a healthier,
equally delicious alternative.
Elevate your braai game
South Africans love a good braai
and it can easily be made heart-
healthy with a few tweaks.
Spicy chicken wings: Marinate chicken
wings in a flavourful, DASH-approved spice
blend and cook them on the grill, in the
oven or air-fry them. Serve on skewers for
easy eating.
Homemade gifts from the kitchen
Homemade gifts are thoughtful, bud-
get-friendly and promote healthier
choices. Here are three ideas:

Nut and seed sprinkle: A crunchy topping for
salads, soups or snacks.
Dry braai rub: Elevate any barbecue with this
seasoning blend.
Infused oils: Combine rosemary, garlic and
chili with olive oil for a flavourful cooking or
dressing oil.

Stay hydrated: water is key
Water plays a vital role in digestion,
detoxification and even blood pressure
regulation.
“Many people confuse thirst for hunger,”
Jennings explains. “By drinking enough water,
you can maintain energy levels and even sup-
port weight management.” Add summer flair
by infusing water with mint, lemon, cucumber
or berries for a refreshing twist.
Sharing meals with loved ones is the corner-
stone of a healthy lifestyle. Gather around the
table, cook together and cherish the connec-
tion. “When we enjoy meals with family and
friends, we’re more mindful of our portions
and choices,” says Jennings. “It’s not just
food for the body, it’s nourishment for the
soul.”
This summer season, let the principles of the
DASH diet inspire your meals. With the right
recipes and mindset, you can enjoy the festive
spirit without compromising your health. For
