Rustic Blueberry-Pecan Galette

Healthy Fact of the Day

Blueberries are packed with antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, which may help protect against heart disease and certain cancers. Pecans provide healthy fats, fiber, and various minerals, contributing to heart health and potentially aiding in weight management. While this galette is a sweet treat, its homemade nature allows for control over sugar content and portion sizes.

Ingredients

 

For the crust:

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup finely ground pecans
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3-4 tbsp ice water

 

For the filling:

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)
  • Coarse sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Mix flour, ground pecans, sugar, and salt.

  2. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. Gradually add ice water until dough forms. Wrap and chill for 1 hour.

  4. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  5. Mix blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla for the filling.

  6. Roll out dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch circle.

  7. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  8. Spread filling in the center, leaving a 2-inch border. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.

  9. Fold edges of dough over filling, pleating as you go.

  10. Brush crust with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar.

  11. Bake for 35-40 minutes until crust is golden and filling is bubbly.

  12. Cool before serving.

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!

Arby’s Orange Cream Shake Is Back — The Seasonal Return That Fans Mark Their Calendar For

Milkshakes are one of the more calorie-dense items on any fast food menu, so sizing down is the easiest way to enjoy the experience without overdoing it. Ordering a small rather than a large shaves significant calories while still delivering the full flavor experience — the taste is identical, just in a smaller format. Pairing it with a lighter entrée like Arby’s turkey sandwich rather than a heavier roast beef combo is another easy way to keep the overall meal more balanced while still treating yourself to the seasonal shake you’ve been waiting for.

The Bread That Built Civilizations

Whole grain sourdough bread — made with unrefined flour and long fermentation — is nutritionally significantly superior to industrially produced white bread. The fermentation process breaks down phytic acid, an antinutrient in grains that inhibits the absorption of minerals including iron, zinc, and magnesium, making the nutrients in whole grain flour more bioavailable in sourdough than in bread made with commercial yeast. Long fermentation also produces organic acids that lower the glycemic response of the bread, making sourdough one of the lower-glycemic bread options available despite being made from the same basic ingredients as higher-glycemic alternatives.

Jalapeño Popper Roasted Potato Salad

Roasting potatoes rather than boiling them preserves more of their potassium, vitamin B6, and natural flavor without adding significant calories. Baby potatoes are naturally rich in fiber and complex carbohydrates, and using a combination of mayonnaise and sour cream rather than mayo alone reduces the fat content of the dressing while adding calcium and a pleasant tang.
