Curry powder- This spice blend contains nutritional heavy hitters like fenugreek, which relieves everything from bronchitis to menstrual cramps, and tumeric, whose potent antioxidants helps prevent cell damage. We like curry on most anything...eggs in the morning, delish with fresh herbs for salad dressing or a heavy dash in potato soup, comfort food.
