The Power of Fresh Herbs

Small Ingredient. Big Impact.

At Tuesday Foods, we believe the smallest details often make the biggest difference.

That’s why every delivery includes our signature “goody bag,” a curated collection of nuts, seeds, house-made toppings and sauces, lemon, lime, avocado and fresh herbs designed to pair perfectly with your meals.

It’s not garnish. It’s intentional!

Why Fresh Herbs Matter

Fresh herbs do more than brighten a plate. They bring powerful nutritional and functional benefits.

Many herbs are naturally rich in:

  • Antioxidants that help protect cells from oxidative stress

  • Anti-inflammatory compounds that support overall wellness

  • Essential vitamins and minerals

  • Natural plant compounds that support digestion

They may be small, but they are incredibly concentrated sources of plant-based nutrition.

The Herbs We Love and Why

Parsley

Often overlooked, parsley is packed with vitamin K, vitamin C, and antioxidants. It supports natural detoxification pathways and adds a clean, bright finish to savory dishes.

Cilantro

Cilantro brings a bold, citrusy freshness and contains plant compounds that may support digestion and help the body manage oxidative stress.

Basil

Basil is rich in antioxidants and natural anti-inflammatory compounds. It adds depth and subtle sweetness while supporting overall cellular health.

Mint

Mint is well known for its digestive benefits. It can help soothe the stomach and adds a refreshing lift to grain bowls, sauces, and dressings.

Dill

Dill offers antimicrobial and antioxidant properties while adding a delicate, slightly tangy flavor that enhances roasted vegetables and protein-forward dishes.

Flavor That Supports Health

Fresh herbs allow us to create bold, satisfying meals without relying on excess salt or sugar. They stimulate the senses, enhance digestion, and make every bite more dynamic.

Adding herbs just before serving helps preserve their aroma, texture, and nutritional value.

Designed to Be Paired

The herbs in your goody bag are thoughtfully selected to complement that week’s menu, enhancing both flavor and function.

Add them just before eating. Tear them gently with your hands. Sprinkle generously.

It is a small ritual. But it changes the experience.

The Tuesday Foods Difference

We cook with fresh herbs. And we send them home with you.

Because real food should feel alive.

Open your goody bag. Sprinkle generously. Enjoy every bite.
