Healthy Fact of the Day

Watermelon is not only refreshing but also nutritious. It's low in calories and high in vitamins A and C, as well as lycopene, an antioxidant that may help reduce the risk of certain cancers and support heart health.

Ingredients

 

  • 1 large round watermelon slice, about 1-inch thick
  • 4 oz crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, torn
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 2 tbsp balsamic glaze
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup pistachios, roughly chopped
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

 

Instructions

  1. Cut the large watermelon slice into 8 wedges, like a pizza.

  2. Arrange the watermelon wedges on a large, circular serving platter in a pizza shape.

  3. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the watermelon.

  4. Scatter the thinly sliced red onion over the feta.

  5. Distribute the torn mint and basil leaves across the “pizza”.

  6. Drizzle the balsamic glaze and olive oil over the watermelon and toppings.

  7. Sprinkle the chopped pistachios over everything.

  8. Finish with a light dusting of freshly ground black pepper.

  9. Serve immediately, encouraging guests to pick up slices as they would a regular pizza.

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!

The Bread Baker’s Year: What Happens When You Make It Every Week

Long-fermented sourdough bread has measurably different effects on blood sugar than conventionally leavened bread made from the same flour. The organic acids produced during sourdough fermentation — lactic and acetic acid — slow the digestion of starches and lower the glycemic response of the finished bread compared to bread made with commercial yeast. Additionally, the extended fermentation degrades phytic acid in the grain, improving the bioavailability of minerals including iron, zinc, and magnesium. The health benefits of genuine sourdough bread — as opposed to bread marketed as sourdough but made with commercial yeast and added acid — are a direct product of the long, genuine fermentation process that the practice of weekly bread baking produces.
