Healthy Fact of the Day

Ingredients

 

  • 1 (8 oz) block of feta cheese
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Place the feta block in a small baking dish or oven-safe skillet.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
