New Discoveries Of The Week: Cool New Things I'm Trying, Books I'm Reading, And More!

A Botanist In Your Pocket

From grounding to forest bathing to foraging, getting outside is one of the most important things I do to protect and nurture both my physical and spiritual health.

Spending so much time outdoors has become a practice in awareness—rather than seeing trees and other plants as big masses of green, I've been able to start to recognize and appreciate their God-given distinctions. Of course, with countless species out there, I'm nowhere near being able to identify every growing thing I encounter.

That's where PictureThis has been coming in handy. I've been using this cool app to learn about all sorts of plants. All you need to do is take or upload a photo of any plant and you'll get instantaneous and accurate plant ID results with their revolutionary artificial intelligence technology. PictureThis has a 10,000+ and growing plant database, and not only will it help you to identify the plants you find, but you can also learn everything you want to know, from watering frequency to pest and disease control.

PictureThis will also virtually troubleshoot your sick plants; you just take a picture to get problem causes and treatment suggestions. There's also gardening advice and plant experts that help you troubleshoot your garden problems.

PictureThis offers a 7-day free trial and then it's only $29.99 for an entire year. Considering I'm outside exploring constantly, I think it's well worth the $.08 that works out to every day. :)

What I'm Drizzling On My Salads Lately

Tahini has been around since medieval times, and while it is a traditional Middle Eastern condiment, it is now consumed worldwide. Raw, hulled ground sesame seeds, which are chock-full of iron, calcium, and protein, are the base of tahini. Tahini paste is low in carbohydrates, high in fiber, and a great source of healthy fat.

To limit my omega-6 and polyunsaturated fat (PUFA) intake, I don't use seed or nut butters much at all, but for something to drizzle quite lightly on a salad or meat, I have to say that something about the sesame-ish taste of Tahini just agrees with me, and I like the savory flavor it can add to a dish.

I'll be honest…I was a little skeptical when I heard about the Tahini Goddess tahini paste. Their flavors include Caesar Style, Spicy Chili, and Chocolate, and while I love chocolate (see above), I don't know how I feel about it in tahini. I found the taste to be really interesting, though, and I like that Tahini Goddess only uses 100% Humera sesame seeds roasted slowly over low temperatures.

Special Announcements:

::: Fire Up Your Summer With Traeger Grills :::

It's officially grilling season.

There's nothing like standing on the deck on a beautiful summer evening with a cold beverage in your hand and a slab of meat on the grill.

My pick for the best grill out there is, hands-down, Traeger's Ironwood 885 Pellet Grill.

The Traeger Grill is the world’s number one selling wood-fired grill for good reason. In addition to some other pretty impressive features you can discover here, the Ironwood 885's double side-wall insulation improves temperature consistency and pellet efficiency.

Yes, now you can smoke, bake, roast, braise, bbq, and of course, grill whatever your little carnivore heart desires with pure, hardwood flavor, not just during the summer months but year-round.

Until you've eaten a steak, brat, or chicken thigh cooked over a hardwood flame, you won't know what you're missing out on by cooking with charcoal or gas. Not only do Traegers produce the tastiest grilled delicacies your mouth will ever have the pleasure of tasting, but they're also super simple to use.

Check out the Traeger Ironwood 885 here. And if you want a chance to win your own, pre-order my new Boundless Cookbook today. Traeger is giving away an Ironwood 885 on June 14th, and you'll also be entered to win other prizes worth more than $4,000. (If you've already pre-ordered, no fear…you're entered.)

    I see your ads on social media. For the next round please consider dropping “the eagle has landed”. I don’t make any sense.
