Shop Organic

September is National Organic Month! 

September is a perfect time to dive into the benefits that shopping organic has to offer you, your family, and the planet. Rising Tide offers many clean options across multiple departments – (and we are particularly proud of our 100% Certified Organic produce department—the only one in the area).  But let’s take a look at what ‘organic’ means and what these products have to offer.  

What is Organic? 

Most of us have a grasp on what organic products are made without (ie GMOs), but there really is SO much more to earning the 100 percent organic label.  

According to the USDA, certified organic foods are grown and processed according to federal guidelines addressing, among many factors, soil quality, animal raising practices, pest and weed control, and use of additives. Organic producers rely on natural substances and physical, mechanical, or biologically based farming methods to the fullest extent possible.  Learn more about the processes and standards here.
 

What the Labels Mean 

Understanding what the labels mean empowers customers to make informed decisions about the food they purchase. And it might help you to know our staff is extremely knowledgeable in this area and is always available to answer any questions you might have! 

  • 100% Organic: All the ingredients are certified organic. 
  • Organic: At least 95% of the ingredients are certified organic. 
  • Made With Organic Ingredients: At least 70% of the ingredients are certified organic.

The Benefits

There are a lot of studies that show organic food may simply be better for your health. For example, Only Organic highlights a 2016 study found that organic dairy and meat contain about 50 percent more omega-3 fatty acids. AND in 2014 a comprehensive review of earlier studies found substantially higher levels of antioxidants and lower levels of pesticides in organic fruits, vegetables and grains compared with conventionally grown produce.

There are many more benefits of shopping organic that include the health of you, your family, and the planet – you can read more about these advantages here.

Recipes 

Grilled Vegetable Orzo Salad
While burgers get a lot of love this time of year, don’t sleep on grilled vegetables! You get all the same char-grilled goodness, and you don’t have to heat your kitchen roasting veggies. Worried about losing skinny veggies between the grates of your grill? Either roast veggies whole or use some foil to give them a solid surface. Topped with scallions and feta cheese, this orzo salad is perfect for all your summer get togethers! You can eat it right away warm or let it cool and serve it chilled. A big batch of this in the fridge is perfect to have on hand whenever hunger strikes.

Creamy Basil Kefir Sauce
This ultra-creamy basil kefir sauce is the perfect low-lactose addition to pasta, salads, or even flatbreads. Thanks to the Redwood Hill Farm Goat Milk Kefir, your dish will even get a little probiotic boost, too. Yay, microbiome!

 

Lightly Salted Rice Cakes with Basil Chicken Salad
For a light lunch or satisfying snack, try topping Lightly Salted Rice Cakes with Basil Chicken Salad! Our recipe calls for fresh herbs and Greek yogurt to create a creamy texture and tangy flavor that’s perfectly balanced by organic brown rice. Plus, this pairing is packed with protein and plenty of whole grains to fill you up without weighing you down. Isn’t that delicious?

Gruyere with Potatoes and Asparagus
With an alpine cheese and crispy roasted veggies, this is the kind of snack turned meal we can get behind. Is draping gruyere over roasted veggies the adult version of broccoli and cheese sauce? We think it’s just as good. Include a few pickles to add a zingy bite.

Grain-Free Iced Lemon Blueberry Tray Cake
Whether it’s for Mother’s Day or just to appreciate the final weeks of spring, this grain-free tray bake might remind you of a certain baking competition show from across the pond. This quick bread is perfect for breakfast in bed or to go with an afternoon coffee. It would also make a fine dessert if it lasts that long! Lemon and blueberry are such a perfect combination. If you don’t see nice fresh blueberries quite yet, you can substitute wild frozen berries. Thawed works best, but if you don’t have time, baking with frozen blueberries works here too! It just may need a few extra minutes in the oven.

King Mushroom Birria-Style Tacos
Sautéed mushrooms pack a flavorful punch when combined with a melty plant-based cheese! The chicken flavored bouillon contains no meat, but it does add a ton of umami. The beauty of birria-style tacos is that you get a side of dipping sauce! Instead of a traditional consommé, this simplified version uses enchilada sauce, so you don’t have to wait long to enjoy! Feel free to thin the enchilada sauce with veggie broth (maybe mushroom broth!) to get a more typical birria experience. It’s messy, but it’s so good!

Asian Summer Noodle Bowl with Peanut Dressing
This noodle bowl features a classic peanut dressing and pasta made from chickpeas! Chickapea is more than just pasta, it’s an excellent source of plant-based protein. Add your favorite veggies and this complete meal is a no brainer!

Try drawing on the eggs with crayons to create dye-free spots or dipping only half the egg. Who can make the funkiest egg of the dozen? 

 

Cauliflower Cheese Gratin
This gratin is great, because you use the leaves of the cauliflower, and not just the florets. With the same creamy, cheesy sauce as your favorite mac and cheese, this cauliflower dish adds comfort and vegetables to your meal rotation. Sambal is an Indonesian chili garlic paste. In this dish, it cuts through the cream and adds a touch of heat. If you don’t have any on hand, a good substitute would be Sriracha; red pepper flakes can also work in a pinch.

Pineapple Tepache
Have you ever bought a fresh pineapple and wondered if there was a way to utilize all the rind? If you’re a fan of kombucha, try your hand at homemade pineapple tepache. It’s easier and faster to make tepache than kombucha. This fermented drink is full of enzymes like bromelain from pineapple and probiotics from the fermentation process, which can support digestion. Make sure to taste the mixture often to find the perfect blend of sweet and tart. Serve as a refreshing sparkling drink or use it full-strength in your next homemade vinaigrette.

Tropical Pie

Charity of the Month – Bayville Village Church Food Pantry 

The Mimi Mernin Food Pantry (aka the Bayville Village Church food pantry) was started as a small outreach service almost 20 years ago and operated out of a small shed at the rear of the church.  Until recently, they solely relied on private donations.  With the onset of the coronavirus, the Food Pantry expanded their services and moved to a conference room in the Village Church.  Presently, they are serving about 50 families/200 individuals per distribution date, offering dry goods, produce, meats, dairy items and more. Rising Tide is proud to assist the Bayville Village Church Food Pantry through our Bring Your Own Bag program.

Recipes

Beet Velvet Cupcakes
Beets are the perfect source of earthy sweetness without using any refined sugars. The natural color from red beets eliminates the need to use any food coloring to achieve a red color. If you use a plant-based milk instead of water in the recipe, your cupcakes will turn out more pink than red. With the rich flavor of chocolate, even beet-skeptics will find something to love in these beet velvet cupcakes. If you choose to share, no one will know the secret ingredient unless you tell them.

Alpha Omega Salad
Farro is a great grain to have in your pantry. Also known as emmer wheat, farro is a source of protein, fiber, and minerals. Plus, a 20-minute cooking time is nearly half of some other whole grains. Try it hot in soups or sides, or cold, like in this colorful alpha omega salad. It makes packing healthy lunches a snap! Make a batch of the salad and portion it into individual containers for the week. Your future self will thank you!

Caramelized Onion & Aioli Beyond Burger
Elevate burger night by topping Beyond Burgers with caramelized onions and garlic aioli. There’s no shortage of flavor here!

Crispy mushrooms and a complex, rich sauce come together to re-imagine a classic dish. Lighter than traditional carbonara recipes, but with plenty of protein to keep you satisfied. This is a smarter way to pasta.

Heart Health

American Heart Month

February is American Heart Month, bringing attention to how we can motivate ourselves and each other to adopt healthy lifestyles that may help prevent heart disease. 

Heart disease is the number one cause of deaths for most groups, affecting all ages, genders, and ethnicities. Luckily, there are some simple behavior changes that may prevent heart disease, including not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, controlling blood sugar and cholesterol, managing high blood pressure, increasing physical activity and getting regular checkups. 

Let’s focus on some of the highest recommended supplements that support heart health.

  • Bluebonnet Ubiquinol contains the active form of CoQ10, Ubiquinol. CoQ10 is an antioxidant that supports cellular and cardiovascular health.*
  • Natural Factors Garlic +Reishi has 4.5 odor controlled garlic cloves per capsule, providing support for the immune and cardiovascular systems.*
  • Wiley’s Bold Heart delivers 2000 mg of plant sterols per serving in a vegan solution for heart health.*

Stop by the Rising Tide supplement department and as always, if you have any questions just ask Steve!
