Watermelon rind and seeds

We always neglect the watermelon rind, yet it contains significant minerals like citrulline.

Use the white section under the green skin in smoothies, salsa, chutney, or slaw.

Broccoli stalks

The neglected broccoli stalk contains a phytochemical antioxidant that protects cells from DNA damage, inhibits tumor blood vessel growth.

Broccoli stalks

They can be sliced, shredded, steamed, roasted, or sautéed. They thicken sauces, pesto, hummus, and soups.
