Healthy Fact of the Day

Honeycrisp apples provide fiber and antioxidants, while walnuts offer heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. This salad delivers a perfect balance of nutrients, healthy fats, and natural sweetness.

    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!
