Dr. Steve Rothwell

Dr. Steve Rothwell is the host. Rothwell has a PhD in Nutritional & Environmental Physiology of Watercress from the University of Bath. Rothwell may be the only person in the world with a PhD in Watercress, but I'll keep looking!

"Watercress is the most nutritious fruit or vegetable known—it has more than twice the overall nutrient value of kale—but hardly anyone is aware of that fact."  
-Dr. Steve Rothwell

Here's a quick video from Dr. Steve:

Ice Ice Baby

Not just any ice, Watercress Ice. This is great for smoothies, as you can have the ice made and ready any time you want it. This is all there is to it:


Place a good bunch of watercress in the mixer, I added a little water, a tablespoon,
just to make the watercress a little more liquid.


It probably didn't even need water, but this is the consistency I created with the combination mentioned.



Frozen gems of gorgeous green watercress.



I added two cubes of watercress ice to this smoothie, with strawberries, and greek yogurt. It was delicious - Enjoy!
