Learn how to preserve apple relish! 😋

Apples can be eaten fresh, baked, cooked, dried, frozen.... and as a relish? That's right! Sweet spreads and relishes are tasty additions to your menus.

On average, one medium apple with skin (3 inches in diameter) is a good source of fiber, vitamins and minerals for less than 100 calories.

It's the first day of fall! Which means... coffee season is here in full force.

Many studies have explored the health benefits and risks of coffee. Although coffee in large amounts may have some negative effects, try strategies to reduce these outcomes. Drink coffee in moderation (3 to 5 cups per day). Consume a diet rich in calcium to prevent osteoporosis, and drink filtered coffee to avoid coffee’s lipid-raising agents.

Also, be aware that coffee beverages vary widely in calorie, caffeine and sugar content. Many coffee shops provide nutritional information online or in printed materials.
