Chicken-Salad Collard Wrap
Ditch that processed flour tortilla and opt for this heart-healthy collard leaf instead: Not only does this Southern staple contain plenty of fiber, vitamin C, and calcium, it’s also a great source of vitamin K, which can promote blood clotting and may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Vegetarian Fried Rice
Made with a combination of olive and sesame oils, this version is heart-healthy. Extra-virgin olive oil can positively affect fat metabolism, optimizing circulating cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Sesame oil contains antioxidants, unsaturated fatty acids, and lignans, which have been found to help decrease LDL and increase HDL, and improve overall health.
