Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese Salad

Healthy Fact of the Day

Beets are an excellent source of folate, manganese, potassium, and vitamin C. They also contain betalains, which are powerful plant pigments with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Ingredients

 

  • 4 medium beets, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 6 cups mixed greens
  • 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
  • 1/4 cup toasted walnuts
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey

 

Instructions

 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Toss the diced beets with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
  3. Roast the beets in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
  4. In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, roasted beets, crumbled goat cheese, and toasted walnuts.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and honey to make a simple vinaigrette.
  6. Drizzle the balsamic vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine.
  7. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste, if desired.

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 Hidden World of Umami and the Fifth Taste

The practical application of umami knowledge has meaningful implications for sodium reduction in cooking. Research demonstrates that replacing a portion of added salt with glutamate-rich ingredients — miso, soy sauce, tomato paste, Parmesan, and other fermented or aged umami sources — maintains perceived saltiness and flavor satisfaction while significantly reducing total sodium content. A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that incorporating umami-rich ingredients allowed for sodium reductions of up to forty percent in soups and sauces without any decrease in perceived palatability — making umami literacy one of the most practical tools available for heart-healthy cooking.

Chicken Spiedini

Chicken breast is one of the leanest, highest-protein cuts available, and marinating in olive oil and lemon juice rather than heavy sauces keeps this recipe exceptionally clean nutritionally.

It’s National Splurge Day — And BOGO Week Just Started at Five Major Chains

BOGO Week is a great opportunity to share a meal rather than eat double — splitting the second item with someone means you get the deal without doubling your calorie intake. Of the five options this week, the Tropical Smoothie Cafe BOGO is the most nutritionally sound choice, since smoothies made with real fruit provide natural vitamins and fiber. The Subway BOGO on a 6-inch sub is another smart pick — load it up with vegetables and choose a lean protein like turkey to keep the meal balanced. If you’re hitting multiple chains this week, spacing them out across the full seven days rather than stacking them in one or two days is a practical way to enjoy the savings without overdoing it.
