I have been ordering organic veggies for delivery these past months. In one of my first orders, I accidentally ordered 1 kg (approx 2 lbs) of organic ginger!! My overflowing ginger supply inspired me to get creative about putting it to good use.Â
My favorite discovery? I loooove a big piece of peeled ginger in my morning berry smoothie!Â
It’s both the flavor and the health benefits that get me.

đź’© Too much ginger may lead to too many trips to the bathroom or acid reflux in those who are more prone to it.Â
➡️Start with a small ÂĽ inch slice of peeled ginger and increase as high as a 1 inch slice for maximum ginger anti-inflammatory and flavor potency.Â
