Mindful walking that fosters focus on each step can combat depression, anxiety and unhealthy food cravings by boosting neurotransmitters.

Kalamata Olive Hummus-Cucumber Picnic Sandwiches
Pita pocket bread, sourdough or other bread of choice
1 can organic chickpeas/garbanzos with original water drained off just a bit
½ cup organic sesame seeds or 2 Tbsp of tahini (½ cup organic, raw, unsalted sunflower seeds can be used in a pinch)

½ cup kalamata olives (whole or halved, drained)
Conventional or English cucumber, thinly sliced
Organic lemon thinly slivered with skin intact
In a blender or Vitamix, add chickpeas with original water, sesame seeds/tahini and a slice of lemon to make the hummus. Blend until smooth, but don’t over-blend until too thin. Pour into bowl, stir in olives and drizzle with olive oil. Lastly, sprinkle the minced garlic on the top of the hummus and chill for a few hours or overnight.
Generously spoon hummus onto bread or into pita pockets and gently layer thinly, freshly sliced cucumbers and thin slivers of lemon. Optional additions: fresh herbs like oregano, thyme, lemon thyme or mint to add last between the slices of bread or tucked into a pita pocket. Keep in a cooler for picnics.

Fruta Picada
Yields: 8 to 10 servings
A combination of fresh fruit, lime juice and chili seasoning, fruta picada is served at markets and roadsides throughout Mexico. The combination of spice and salt partnered with sweet fruit is guaranteed to take the edge off of a blistering summer’s day.
Spice Blend
3 Tbsp chipotle powder
3 Tbsp smoky paprika
1 Tbsp plus 2 tsp sea salt
1 Tbsp cumin seeds
1½ tsp celery seeds
Fruit
1 pineapple, peeled, cored and cut into spears
½ watermelon, peeled, cut into spears and seeded
1 large jicama, peeled and cut into spears
1 large papaya, peeled, seeded and cut into spears
Juice from 2 limes
Grind all of the spice blend ingredients together in a spice grinder or food processor or with a mortar and pestle until finely powdered. Transfer to a lidded container with a shaker screen.

We Are All In This Together
Buying produce and goods locally support family farmers, protects the genetic diversity of crops and reduces environmental impact. But the obstacles presented by the COVID-19 pandemic have turned it all topsy-turvy. Confined to home by social distancing rules makes it that much harder to secured needed supplies, yet local, independent family farms are still going strong. By eschewing big box stores and major grocery chains, we may experience the community sharing and gratitude toward food that is often lost in normal times. We in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex are afforded an abundance of opportunities to unite with farmers, connect with the soil and savor the flavors and colors of the season. Whether we’re seeking a juicy organic tomato, a beautiful Texas native flower or a handcrafted piece of jewelry, these, farms, farmers’ markets, farm to table restaurants and garden centers can accommodate.
