There are certain specific ingredients that are popping up on social media and gaining some fame. Now, when this happens, it often involves ingredients that are a bit more “glamorous,” which usually translates to being rich, but something is changing, and the products that are being shared the most on networks like Pinterest and Instagram are also good for health. Here are 5 healthy food trends you should pay attention to. Bowls That's right, very much in the Asian style, those bowls filled with various energizing ingredients are everywhere, and for good reason. Unity is strength, and the incredible thing about a good food bowl is that it can contain, within a single dish, vitamins, minerals, protein, carbohydrates, and even unsaturated fats. We recommend: Fusilli and Crab Bowl Vegetable Pasta It sounds more glamorous than it is, as it simply involves cutting vegetables like cucumber or zucchini into noodle shapes and then preparing them as you would with regular pasta. It also adds a different touch to your salads. We recommend: Spaghetti with Vegetables Ancient Seeds That's right, as you may have already realized, what’s old is new again, and this hasn’t gone unnoticed in the culinary world. Many of the grains and seeds that were eaten in the pre-colonial world are now in vogue; if you don’t believe us, here are some names: quinoa, amaranth, spelt, kamut, and farro. We recommend: Quinoa Salad Good Fats In other decades, the focus was on zero fat or light, but not in recent years. What healthy eating is about now is good fats: fish, nuts, seeds, avocado, olive oil, etc. These ingredients have taken the internet by storm and are among the top recommendations from nutritionists and doctors alike. We recommend: Tuna Salad in Avocado Vegetables as the Main Ingredient This has nothing to do with being vegan or vegetarian; it’s about a new respect that restaurants have found for vegetables. In multiple establishments around the world, animal protein is no longer the centerpiece, and it’s all about roasted cauliflowers, caramelized squashes, tempura asparagus, etc. We recommend: Oven-Roasted Cauliflower with Lemon and Parsley
