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!

Aldi’s August Finds Are Stacked — And Fall Flavors Start Arriving This Month

Aldi’s August lineup has a few genuinely nutritious standouts worth prioritizing. The Simply Nature Organic Chicken Sausage is a clean-ingredient protein with no artificial additives — a strong choice for late-summer grilling. The Shrimp Wonton Soup is one of the better-value seafood options in any freezer aisle, with shrimp delivering lean protein and bok choy adding calcium and vitamin C. And the Clancy’s Apple Chips arriving August 26 at $1.99 are a whole-food snack with no added sugar — a genuinely clean alternative to potato chips for fall snacking. When the pumpkin and maple wave hits August 19, enjoying those as occasional treats rather than daily staples keeps the seasonal indulgence balanced.

The Cookout That Nobody Forgets: Building an Outdoor Meal Around Memory

Research on social eating and portion behavior at outdoor gatherings consistently finds that people consume more diverse foods — including more vegetables and more varied protein sources — at cookouts and outdoor gatherings than at comparable indoor meals. The informal, self-service format of the cookout encourages sampling from multiple dishes rather than committing to a single plate, which naturally produces greater dietary variety. The outdoor setting and the extended duration of the event also correlate with slower eating pace, better social connection, and higher reported meal satisfaction — all of which are independently associated with positive dietary and health outcomes.
