BEETS #5 Peak season for beets is late summer through late fall

 

Beets contain nitric acid, which helps with vasodilatation, the process that expands the blood vessels in the body and improves blood flow.

Since beets are a source of nitrates, they may play a role in brain health. Studies suggest that a diet rich in nitrates may have a beneficial effect when it comes to improving cognitive brain function.

Beets are also a great source of betaine, which helps in digestion. They are high in glycemic index, but are great when eaten as either an appetizer or a small side dish.

Recipe: Roasted Beets with Goat Cheese and Walnuts

Sweet Potatoes #4 Sweet potatoes are in season during the fall

Sweet Potatoes are higher in vitamin A than regular white potatoes.  In addition to all of the wonderful antioxidant flavonoid benefits, sweet potatoes bring color and nutrition to any meal. 

Those who have diabetes or other blood sugar issues may benefit from limiting high glycemic index foods. How potato affects a person's blood sugar largely depends on the type of potato, portion size and cooking method.

Sweet potatoes are a starch, so don't rely on them for weight loss. Remember, loading them up with butter or brown sugar, as we often do at Thanksgiving, defeats any nutritional benefits.

Pumpkins #3 Pumpkin picking is popular during fall

 

Most of us think of pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin pie and pumpkin muffins when we think of this fall fruit — and yes, it is a fruit. But, none of those are healthy. However, roasted pumpkin, pumpkin soup and pumpkin seeds can be quite healthy. Pumpkin is loaded with fiber and vitamins and it's typically low in calories. When making foods with canned pumpkin, be sure to use plain pumpkin rather than pumpkin pie filling to avoid added sugars.

Pumpkins are very high in beta-carotene, which is a form of vitamin A. Beta-carotene helps you to see clearly and also serves as a powerful antioxidant. Roasted pumpkin seeds make a healthy and delicious snack that's also high in nutrients, including zinc, which supports a person's immune system.

Besides their use in traditional baking dishes, pumpkins can be used to make soups

This Savory Side Was Named 2023's Most Popular Dish on the Thanksgiving Table

 

The turkey is the star of Thanksgiving, right? Well, it turns out the side dishes are actually the main event.

A study published October 26th reports that 51% of Americans would rather have Thanksgiving without a turkey than a Thanksgiving without the sides—indicating 2024 is the year #MakeSidesTheMain takes over on social media and at the holiday table. That remains to be seen, but with 16% of Americans reporting their meal includes seven or more side dishes, it's possible that more gatherings may skip the white and dark meat. READ MORE

Apples #2 Apple picking, a popular healthy and fun fall outing

 Apples may help protect against cardiovascular disease, researchers have found.  Consuming one medium-sized apple a day may help lower cholesterol, blood pressure and inflammation, according to a study in the journal Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition.

Apples are a great low glycemic fruit with quercetin, flavonoids and polyphenols, which help with mast cell stabilization, allergies and general antioxidant benefits.

Apples are great to clean out oral dentition as we chew the apples. They're handy to carry as snacks, and they're great to use with other meals, baked along with meats and/or healthy desserts.

An apple a day may actually keep the doctor away. Apples are high in fiber, vitamin C and other beneficial compounds.

Cranberries #1 Plan to visit a Cranberry bog during the fall harvest season

Cranberries provide healthy fall side dishes and are a wonderful high-antioxidant treat. They are also a wonderful dessert when combined with Greek yogurt.

Cranberries contain compounds such as anthocyanins, procyanidins and flavonols that have shown potential cancer prevention impacts, according to a 2018 study published in the Journal of Science and Food and Agriculture. Studies have also shown that cranberries may have a positive effect on heart health and cholesterol while protecting against inflammation in the intestines and bacteria in the stomach.

Apple a day and other great fall food choices that are healthy, delicious and fun

BONUS: Honey is a natural healthier sweetener

The fall festivals that lie ahead this year not only serve up festive fun — they also serve up some healthy and delicious dishes for everyone.

Autumn, which officially begins on Sept. 22 this year, is a wonderful time to take advantage of fresh produce that can provide essential vitamins and health benefits, medical experts advise.

When roasted, some fall fruits and vegetables get caramelized and that enhances their natural sweetness, which makes them even more appetizing.

Answers and Décor Inspiration

The coziest time of year is almost here. When it’s been 90 degrees out and humid for weeks, it’s easy to find yourself thinking: When does fall start again? We love days spent swimming at the beach with pool toys and lounging on patio furniture in the summer sun, but after months of sticky heat, it’s natural to start daydreaming about all the fun activities the fall season brings. If you’re already itching to break out the pumpkins and buffalo plaid, you’re probably wondering when to decorate for fall. Is August too early? Should you wait for the leaves to start changing?

Looking to try the Best Taco in Wisconsin?

 

Birria tacos kept Lazo's Taco Shack in business during the COVID-19 pandemic.

 (Birria is a meat stew or soup, mainly made with goat or beef. The meat is marinated in an adobo made of vinegar, dried chiles, garlic, and herbs and spices before being cooked in a broth.) 

Four years later, Yelp named the restaurant, at 641 N. Lovell St., as its Wisconsin choice for Best Taco Spot in Every State.

Lazo's Taco Shack opened in 2019, just three months before the pandemic. "We were afraid it would close down," said Jozelyn Lazo, who co-owns the taco shop with her dad, Jose Lazo, and brother, Jose E. Lazo.

A family friend who had just visited California, a hub for birria tacos, suggested adding the item to the menu. The Lazos hired a cook specifically for birria tacos and made it a Wednesday special.  READ MORE

These are the hottest communities around Milwaukee, according to home sale data...

 

Milwaukee's residential real estate market mania has subsided — at least a bit.

September home sales were down last month compared to the year prior. And so far, 2024 — like 2023 — has been a slow year for the housing market, according to the latest market report by the Greater Milwaukee Association of Realtors (GMAR), as buyers face limited inventory, high interest rates and high prices.

Still, some communities around the Milwaukee area are heating up, according to a GMAR analysis of 2024 sales.

Here's a look at the metro's four "hottest communities":

WAUWATOSA HOMES ARE SELLING FAST

Wauwatosa homebuyers still have to act fast. Homes in the city are selling after an average of just 11 days on the market, according to data from the Metro MLS. That's keeping pace with the market in 2023, when Wauwatosa homes sold after an average of 12 days. 

Average home prices in Wauwatosa hit $422,217 last quarter, up from $406,869 a year earlier. By the end of the third quarter, a total of 452 homes had sold in 'Tosa, according to the Metro MLS.

GREENDALE IS HEATING UP

The average home in Greendale sold for $374,333 this year, an 8% increase in prices year over year. 

A total of 100 homes sold in Greendale through the third quarter of 2024. Those homes sat on the market for an average of 11 days.

PRICES ARE RISING IN GRAFTON

Between Jan. 1 and Sept. 30, a total of 197 homes sold in Grafton. 

Average home prices in Grafton are up 10% since last year — $478,284, compared to $435,595.

WASHINGTON COUNTY'S VILLAGE OF JACKSON SAW BIG SURGE IN SALES

The Village of Jackson — a community of about 7,000 people, about 20 miles south of West Bend — saw a big surge in home sales this year. Total sales in Jackson are up 78% year over year, according to data from the metro MLS -- 155 homes sold, compared to just 87 this time last year.

The average home in Jackson sold for $401,657 this year, compared to $374,762 the same time last year.

Jackson has been on a building spree in the past few years. Since 2020, the village issued permits for 198 new houses, according to data from the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services.

The Oaks of Jackson, a new 20-acre housing development which broke ground in May 2023, is selling homes starting at $380,000. The subdivision was built in collaboration with the village and was supported by Washington County's Next Generation Housing initiative.

DIY Home Project #1 - Paint Refresh

 

Pick your favorite room(s)

When thinking about home maintenance, everyone knows that a fresh coat of paint can reinvent any space.

Grilling Trend # 6 - Grilled Whole Fish and Shell-On Seafood

 

Grilled Whole Fish and Shell-On Seafood

In other popular protein news, fish and seafood is a major grilling trend for 2024. And we’re not just talking about salmon filets.

Try grilling whole fish... Get a fish basket, they work great for grilling any size fish. The pros suggest you infuse the fish with Mediterranean flavors.

If you’re in the mood for other grilled seafood in a shell, add Grilled Mussels or Shrimp with Garlic Butter to your summer bucket list.

Grilling Trend #5 - Grilled Unique Cuts of Meat

 

Grilled Unique Cuts of Meat

If you’ve taken a peek at your supermarket bill lately, you’ve most likely noticed some significant increases. Groceries are getting more expensive across the board, and one of the fastest-spiking categories is beef. (Beef prices jumped 7 percent from April 2023 to April 2024, according to the USDA’s Economic Research Service.)

If you’re watching your budget, this doesn’t necessarily mean that you need to skip beef all together if you enjoy it. The secret lies in choosing a different kind of steak and using a marinade.

People are getting more experimental with their grilling. They are going beyond the basic steak, chicken breast, and burger. Not only are many of these cuts a better value, but they do very well on the grill.

Consider adding these value proteins to your shopping list: Denver steak, Teres major steak, Hanger steak, Skirt steak, Beef cheeks, Chicken thighs and Lamb.

Grilling Trend #4 - Bold Marinades, Rubs and Sauces

Bold Marinades, Rubs, and Sauces

There’s nothing light or shy about the flavors that will be big this summer. In 2024, grill lovers will be experimenting with bolder flavors when it comes to marinades, ribs, and sauces. Here’s what to look for...

Sassy spice blends. Shake it up with a generous dose of Caribbean flavors.

Global inspiration. There’s no need to feel like you must stick to the same cuisine for your marinade, rub, and sauce. Global meet-ups of ingredients, mixing and matching flavors from across the world even if they aren't from the same culinary culture, are a huge trend right now.

Perky marinades. Bored by your usual olive oil, lemon juice, and oregano combo? Try adding unique flavors of vinegars, a spoonful of miso, a drizzle of pomegranate or grape molasses, or a splash of fruit juice to your marinades.

Boosted butters. Coat your grilled corn on the cob with kalamata olive butter, and we’re still on a Cowboy Butter kick after it went wild on social media last year. If you’d rather outsource the blending, try one of Churn Foods’ compound butters, which come in flavors like bruschetta, black garlic, hot honey, and pesto.

 

Grilling Trend #3 - Grilled Fruits and Desserts

 Grilled Fruits and Desserts

When in doubt about what to grill, default to fruit and pound cake! :) 

2024 favorites include stone fruits like peaches and nectarines, slabs or skewers of pineapple, thick slices of tomato, and avocado halves. The textures, slightly charred flavor and caramelization of the fruit more than satisfies any sweet tooth.

You can incorporate fruit into classic desserts like crumbles, crisps, and pies, then opt to “bake” them on the grill instead of in the oven.

WISCONSIN STATE FAIR 2024!

Grilling Trend #2 - Other Grilled Veggies

 

Other Grilled Veggies

Turn over a new leaf and toss other vegetables on the grill too... And we’re not just talking about portobello mushrooms, onions, or peppers. Here are a few unexpected grilled veggies to add to your menu 2024.

Beans and peas. Toss chickpeas, fava beans, peas, or snap peas in oil, then cook them in a metal mesh basket over very high and direct heat. Shake the basket and keep the vegetables constantly moving to avoid burning.

Cauliflower steaks. Follow your favorite cauliflower steak recipe, but instead of searing it in a skillet, cook the cauliflower on the grill. The result is a “hearty, very savory, and filling” option

Whatever is in season. Check your local farmers market, to stock up on a variety of the season’s best to grill.

Griling Trend #1 - Grilled Salads

 

Grilled Salads

Although it’s not exactly a new concept this year, grilled lettuce is an underrated grilling trend.

People don’t always realize how much flavor and texture can be experienced by grilling little gem lettuce or charring radicchio. Adding avocado or crunchy peanuts is a great way to finish the salad.

You need not cook it on the spot if you're hosting a crowd, or are simply craving a head-start. Grill your greens an hour or two in advance, then storing them in the refrigerator until you’re ready to assemble and share the dish. A cool charred salad delivers all the smoky flavor you crave with grilled recipes, just with a refreshing level of hydration and a welcome chilled counterpoint to the warm weather and proteins.

Outdoor Living Trend # 6 - Added Greenery for Living Energy

 

Added Greenery for Living Energy

It’s not just about making your outdoor living spaces an extension of indoors, but about embracing the nature that is beyond your home’s walls. Think lush and layered plants, living garden spaces, green and natural accents.

Ask yourself... “Does the space feel alive?” If you need to breathe some life into your space, try adding more live plants at various heights and sizes, and different shades of green.  This will instantly be a way to refresh the space and be on trend.
