Beets, Goat Cheese, Apricot Salad

by HouseResortLeave a Comment on Beets, Goat Cheese, Apricot Salad

Fresh beets take a long time to cook, but with a crockpot, there is no need to watch and wait. A vegetable so beautiful to slice, and delicious, in a sandwich or on top of any greens, is also loaded with vitamins. I have always used beets when preparing meals, and for the first time, I cooked fresh beets in a crockpot. It took almost 3 hours, to have delicious beets for my salad.

When I plan on making cheese or charcuterie platters, I add slices and whole beets to create a beautiful colorful platter. I look for any chance to add this beautiful vegetable to our meals for more goodness. Good for the digestive system, eating beets increases athletic performance, brain health, decreases inflammation, and detoxes the liver.

Summer Salad with Watermelon

by HouseResortLeave a Comment on Summer Salad with Watermelon

Best way to eat fruits & vegetables sometimes is to make a nice salad. I have found it to be easier to add flavor and excitement to our food and get our kids to eat more fresh and healthy food.

One summer fruit that I love to serve is watermelon. With 1200 varieties, it is sweet, juicy, full of nutrients, and easy to serve.

Thirst quenching watermelon has many benefits, with 92% water, drinking its juice is an important way to keep our body hydrated.

Low in calories only 46 calories per cup, it is a great recovery beverage after a workout, and packed with vitamins, that help with :

1- Lowering blood pressure

2- high in antioxidants – prevents cell damage

3- helps in preventing cancer

4- helps with inflammation

5- helps with muscle soreness

6- helps with healthy hair & skin

One of my favorite salads in summer is watermelon feta cheese salad. Served with mint, glaze balsamic vinegar, olive oil, is cool and refreshing and everyone’s favorite.

Watch the video on how I made this easy salad. Try it & enjoy it 👍😋🍉

Orange juice prevents inflammation,  It’s also an excellent source of dietary fiber. This goodness comes from the juice’s high levels of flavonoids. Plant pigments with anti-inflammatory properties. Always drink freshly squeezed orange juice with pulp where the majority of the nutrients lies.

But if you are looking to shake things up, here is a list of other juices that can help us stay healthy.

It can help ward off kidney stones. Mix four ounces of lemon juice with two liters of water; drink straight up or sweetened.

Grape Juice

Cranberry juice

Keeps urinary tract healthy, and improves cardiovascular health. Do not drink “cranberry juice cocktail,” this drink is loaded sugar and calories.

Pomegranate juice

Every seed packed with disease fighting antioxidants. Pomegranates also have anti-inflammatory properties and can protect against heart disease.

Prune juice

Not only it contains a natural laxative that can help regulate the digestive system, prune juice is loaded with antioxidants, potassium, and fiber.

Tomatoe Juice

Has lycopene. It reduces risk of prostate and other cancers. Vegetable juices are excellent for our health too, they nourish us with vitamins, and fiber. Always look for 100% Juice.
