Nutmeg: The Hidden Herbal Gem for Holistic Wellbeing

Nutmeg is one of my favorite spices in the fall season. I will often times place this herb in cookies to give them a special flavor (and it is one of my secret ingredients). More than just a culinary spice on a spice rack, nutmeg holds a treasure full of health benefits for health just waiting to be explored. As a seasoned nurse, herbalist, and founder of a wellness brand, I’ve taken a deep dive…

Simon Riley definitely eats beans on toast. I’m pretty most of the 141 does 😂😂😂

Absolutely. Positively. Quick breakfast. All that jazz.

Imagine the look on their faces when they find out about baked baked beans, though. I'm talking about the ones you eat with some barbecue.

Garlic Beefsteak with Mushrooms and Béchamel Sauce

Ingredients:

Steak:

2 beef steaks (such as ribeye or sirloin), about 1-inch thick

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Fresh rosemary sprigs (for garnish)

Mushrooms:

1 cup mushrooms, sliced (such as cremini or button)

1 tablespoon butter

1 clove garlic, minced

Salt to taste

Béchamel Sauce:

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups milk

Salt and white pepper to taste

A pinch of nutmeg (optional)

Instructions:

Prepare the Steak:

Season the steaks generously with salt and black pepper.

In a skillet over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Add the steaks to the skillet and cook to your desired doneness, about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, depending on thickness.

Remove steaks from the skillet and let them rest.

Cook the Mushrooms:

In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat.

Add the sliced mushrooms and the second clove of minced garlic, sautéing until the mushrooms are golden and tender.

Season with salt to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

Make the Béchamel Sauce:

In a saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.

Whisk in the flour and cook for about 2 minutes without letting it brown.

Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly to prevent any lumps from forming.

Continue to cook and stir until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.

Season with salt, white pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg if desired. Remove from heat.

Assemble the Dish:

Place the rested steaks on a warm plate.

Top the steaks with the sautéed mushrooms.

Pour the warm béchamel sauce over the steaks and mushrooms.

Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs.

I'm losing my mind lol. I finally got around to getting some proper ceylon cinnamon and things that I thought were imitation cinnamon flavors are actually ceylon or meant to taste like ceylon. Turns out I'm used to tasting cassia and not true cinnamon.

Just watched a relative try to skip the work of shredding cheese for baked mac and cheese by cutting it into little cubes and stirring them into the mac and cheese sauce. It’s in the baking dish now and there are still big orange cubes all through it. Life is so hard when the options are either know-it-all micromanaging or having to eat a dish somewhere in the subpar to abysmal range…
