Hillside, New Jersey, December 2009 – AgroLabs liquid nutrition company has created an all-natural and organic Pomegranate liquid formula that can be incorporated into several recipes for healthy holiday/new year’s appetizers. Below find the recipes for a bursting blueberry-pomegranate BBQ dressing and pomegranate-lime dressing to be enjoyed with pork chops or tenderloin, chicken, tofu or shrimp. Marinate lean meats or fish and then and cut into small sections. Apply to a skewer and to a grill, or bake (350°F) until cooked thoroughly – giving you a nice assortment of skewers.
