Produce doesn’t get much sweeter than this. Our seasonal produce picks below are oh-so flavorful and pack a nutritional punch to boot. Read on to find out why you’re going to want to include these fruits and vegetables in your next meal, snack, or bored doodle (yeah they’re that awesome!).
Swiss Chard
One
of the greenest and leafiest of the leafy greens, one leaf (it is a big leaf)
provides half your daily vitamin A, a quarter of your vitamin C, five times
your vitamin K, and is a good source of vitamin E, iron, magnesium, potassium,
and manganese. Swiss chard is so nutritious, we’re providing a dedicated social
media post this week to highlight how to use it. To get you by until then, try
replacing the greens in your next salad with Swiss chard. Just remove the
fibrous stem in the middle (save it to cook up later because it’s still very
nutritious) and wash, chop, and toss the remainder of the leaf as you would
other greens.
Bell Peppers
Green,
yellow, orange, and red bell peppers…did you know they’re all from the same
plant? Yep, there is no red bell pepper plant or green bell pepper plant. Green
is just the unripe pepper and red is fully ripe, with yellow and orange at
intermediate stages. Since they’re not ripe, green peppers have an earthier and
slightly spicier flavor compared with red, orange, and yellow, which are
comparatively sweeter. Less time on the vine also means lower cost but also
fewer nutrients. Red peppers have eight times the vitamin A and twice the
vitamin C of green peppers. In fact, red peppers have as roughly the same
vitamin A content as a carrot and vitamin C as an orange.
Garlic
Garlic has a more subtle approach to health than Swiss chard
or bell peppers (though its flavor is anything but). You won’t find a boast-worthy
amount of essential vitamins and minerals in garlic but you will find sulfur
(the reason for its pungent flavor and odor). While not essential nutrients,
the sulfur compounds in garlic (allicin being the most well-known) have been
associated with a host of benefits from cardiovascular health to improved
attractiveness (it’s true!). There are so many benefits from garlic we couldn’t
fit them all here so we’re dedicating an entire social post to this
vampire-killing vegetable later this week. Stay tuned!
Peaches
On
to the sweeter fare. While transitioning from garlic to peaches may send your
mouth into a confused downward spiral, don’t pigeonhole this fruit. Peaches can
pair wonderfully with garlic as a savory chutney served over pork chops or even
marinated in a garlic marinade and grilled. Venture outside your cobbler and
pie comfort zone and experiment with this versatile fruit while it lasts. Why
eat peaches? Peaches contain a modest amount of vitamin A and C as well as
potassium but most importantly they’re a rich source of antioxidant flavonoid
which may help protect against cancer and cardiovascular disease as well as
support brain health. Plus, they’re soft, juicy, and delicious!
Apples
Like
peaches, it’s the antioxidants that likely provide the most benefit, rather
than the vitamins and minerals. Apples are a good source of fiber and vitamin
C, but the health benefits of apples are attributed primarily to polyphenols. Benefits
of eating apples include a reduced risk of cancer (esophageal, lung, larynx,
and colorectal especially) as well as the cardio-protective and even cognitive
benefits (there’s promising evidence that apples might help reduce the risk of
neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s). Most of the polyphenols are in
the skin so include the skin and opt for the whole fruit (raw or cooked) rather
than juice (cloudy juice may still offer benefits, though less than the whole
fruit).

During the month of August we have the incredible opportunity to help grant wishes for many Utah children facing life-threatening and debilitating illnesses through a partnership with Make a Wish Utah. During the drive you will have the opportunity to purchase an icon during checkout and contribute to granting a wish of a Utah child. Because of your generous support over the last ten years, we have been able to grant more than 95 wishes and make a difference for numerous children by providing experiences and adventures they otherwise might not get to participate in.
Wishes can range from travel opportunities to once in a lifetime experiences, but regardless of the nature of the wish, each one provides hope and smiles to children and their families. Most often, wishes are granted at a time that the child and their family need an extra boost to get through a difficult time.
We appreciate your support and can’t wait to help even more Utah children this year.

1. Prepare
Chimichurri Sauce: In food processor with knife blade attached or blender,
purée garlic, onions, cilantro, parsley, vinegar, oregano, salt, black pepper
and red pepper; with processor running, slowly pour oil through feed tube and
purée until emulsified.
2. Prepare Steaks:
Prepare outdoor charcoal grill for direct grilling. Let steaks stand 30 minutes
at room temperature. Brush steaks with oil and sprinkle with steak seasoning.
3. Once grill
temperature reaches 450°, place steaks on hot grill rack; cook, uncovered, 10
minutes or until internal temperature of steaks reaches 135°, turning once.
4. Transfer steaks
to cutting board; tent with aluminum foil and let stand 10 minutes before
slicing. (Internal temperature of steak will rise to 145° upon standing for
medium-rare.) Slice steaks across the grain and serve with Chimichurri Sauce.
Letting the steaks
stand at room temperature up to 1 hour before cooking results in even cooking,
and tender, juicier steaks.
To prepare a
charcoal grill for direct grilling, remove the top grate from the charcoal
grill. Place coals in a chimney starter. Spark the coals and let the coals burn
until they are covered with a thick layer of gray ash. Spread the coals onto
the bottom grate. If the grill does not have a built-in thermometer, attach an
oven thermometer to the top grill grate, replace the top grate and close the
grill.
To create crosshatch
marks on steaks, turn the steaks a quarter turn halfway through the grilling
time on each side of steaks during first 8 minutes.
