Basil - More Than Just Flavor


Dried basil has always been a staple in our pantry. We absolutely love to cook as close to from scratch as we can, and that normally means adding a variety of herbs and spices. Being a Young Living distributor, I thought it would be fun to try Basil oil in place of the dried herbs one day. I put two drops in our huge can of tomato sauce (6lbs 9oz), stirred it in with the other spices, tasted, and gagged! WOW! This stuff packs a powerful punch. I quickly learned that our family most likes Basil if we use less than one drop in a batch. As we learned and adjusted, we enjoyed it more and more in our cooking. The flavor is great as long as you don't overdo it, and the absence of the chunky leaves in our food makes a more enjoyable texture. I was happy with the feeling that I was taking care of my family the best I could by replacing some other products I didn't know the origin of. What I didn't know is that Basil naturally supports health and wellness!* My intent was to improve one aspect of my family's health, and Young Living helped me to support more.
