Grilled Watermelon with Lime, Mint & Pistachios

Grilled Watermelon Grilling watermelon lightly caramelizes its natural sugars and gives it a surprisingly rich, smoky flavor while keeping its refreshing juiciness. This colorful summer dish is perfect for Memorial Day gatherings because it’s simple, unexpected, and easy to prepare outdoors alongside the rest of the barbecue menu. Fresh mint, lime, and pistachios add brightness, crunch, and heart-healthy nutrients that beautifully balance grilled foods and richer barbecue dishes. FoodTrients Benefits Watermelon is naturally hydrating and rich in lycopene, a powerful antioxidant linked to heart and skin health. Pistachios provide plant protein, fiber, and healthy fats that support satiety and cardiovascular […]

BBQ Ribs with Baobab Sauce

These ribs get their boost of flavor from a sauce made with baobab—an African fruit with a rather dry but antioxidant-rich pulp. I think baobab may be the next most exciting superfood. The dry, powdery fruit pulp has a tangy, lemon-like flavor that goes very well with barbecued ribs. You can use lemon juice or lemon zest (1 Tbs.) in place of the baobab powder, but it won’t have the same health benefits. Serves 4–6 Ingredients 2 lbs. pork baby back ribs 1 cup barbecue sauce 1 Tbs. baobab powder 2 Tbs. olive oil 1 Tbs. minced garlic ¼ tsp. […]

A feeling of fullness and concentrated nutrients in these foods may be part of the connection to a reduced BMI, smaller waist circumference and reduced risk of being overweight. It should be noted that simply increasing the amount of any of these foods listed below will not in […]
