Summer’s Best Hydrating Foods<br />
Hot summers. Sticky humidity. Water doesn’t quench everything. There<br />
are other great healthy options when it comes to staying hydrated during<br />
the hot Houston summer months: fresh fruits and vegetables! Choose one<br />
or a few of these hydrating summer foods and prepare a decadent salad,<br />
smoothie or raw food entrée that will feed your body and your spirit!<br />
• Cucumbers - Cucumbers taste great raw, sliced thin, are made of mostly<br />
water and are one of the best foods to hydrate the body. You can even<br />
float them in your water for a unique, refreshing drink. • Watermelon -<br />
Again, this fruit is mostly water and contain essential hydrating salts,<br />
calcium, magnesium and potassium. • Cabbage - Cabbage has tons of<br />
Vitamin C and is packed with fiber. This summer vegetable is rich in natural<br />
probiotics, which help to keep the digestive system working efficiently. •<br />
Lettuce - Most lettuces are about 90% water. Be sure to choose the leafy<br />
green variety. • Tomatoes - Sliced, wedges or even simply cut in half,<br />
tomatoes are refreshing and also very healthy. • Berries - Raspberries,<br />
blueberries and strawberries are at their peak during the summer. These<br />
super fruits are chock full of antioxidants and Vitamin C and are great<br />
for detoxing the entire body. • Figs - These summer beauties taste so<br />
indulgent. Make a fig chutney, with some medijool dates and enjoy it<br />
on whole grain crackers as a potassium and fiber filled treat. • Cherries -<br />
Cherries have more antioxidants and Vitamin C than almost any food on<br />
the planet. • Grapes - These hydrating balls of goodness are known for<br />
their extremely high content of Resveratrol, a substance that acts as an<br />
antioxidant and is heart-friendly. • Carrots - Carrots are almost all water.<br />
Summer offers some the tastiest carrots, surprisingly grown in more<br />
colors than just orange, such as yellow and green. Carrots are natural<br />
sources of beta-carotene. Courtesy of http://renewedlivinginc.co<br />

<strong>July</strong> Is National Ice Cream Month<br />
In 1984, President Ronald Reagan designated <strong>July</strong> as National Ice Cream<br />
Month and the third Sunday of the month as National Ice Cream Day. He<br />
recognized ice cream as a fun and nutritious food that is enjoyed by over<br />
90 percent of the nation’s population. In the proclamation, President<br />
Reagan called for all people of the United States to observe these<br />
events with “appropriate ceremonies and activities.” The International<br />
Ice Cream Association (IICA) encourages retailers and consumers to<br />
celebrate <strong>July</strong> as National Ice Cream Month. About 10.3 percent of all<br />
the milk produced by U.S. dairy farmers is used to produce ice cream,<br />
contributing significantly to the economic well-being of the nation’s<br />
dairy industry.<br />

INGREDIENTS:<br />
3 tablespoons white sugar<br />
1 cup heavy cream<br />
3 egg yolks<br />
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract<br />
2 tablespoons white sugar, divided<br />
DIRECTIONS:<br />
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Whisk 3 tablespoons<br />
sugar and cream in a microwave-safe bowl until well combined; heat<br />
the mixture in microwave until warm, 1 to 2 minutes and whisk again<br />
to dissolve sugar. Whisk in egg yolks and vanilla extract until smooth.<br />
Pour cream mixture into 2 ramekins. Set ramekins into a roasting<br />
pan and pour in enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of<br />
the ramekins. Bake in the preheated oven until creme desserts are<br />
set but still slightly jiggly when shaken, about 50 minutes. Remove<br />
ramekins from hot water and chill in refrigerator until cold, at least<br />
2 hours. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar evenly over the top of each<br />
dessert. Use a kitchen torch to lightly toast and melt the sugar<br />
topping until brown and bubbly, about 30 seconds. Let the sugar<br />
topping cool before serving. To serve, use a spoon to crack the crisp<br />
sugar open to reveal the creamy dessert underneath. Source: http://<br />
