Persimmon is an underrated fruit here in the states. A golden, jammy combination of tangy tart and sweet. It’s not often they are in the grocery store, but you may find them at a local market or farm stand, Asian grocery, or you may come across them on your next hike.

What to Expect at Your Annual Check-up
Your time with your primary care provider will be tailored to you, so no two annual check-ups are alike. But here are some things your provider will likely review:
Tomato and Zucchini Gratin
Tomato season is a joy, and around this time the final stragglers are ripening. If you’re like me, you may have a small herd of tomatoes collecting on your kitchen counter, held in by a zucchini fence. If not, a trip to the grocery store or local market is certainly in order!

Elotes (Street Corn) with Avocado & Yogurt Sauce
Elotes are a classic Mexican street food. Roasty sweet corn with a limey cream sauce, topped with cheese—and some chili spice if you’re up for it. ¡Es como un sueño!
You can also make a salad version of this by cutting the corn off the cob and mixing it with the sauce in a bowl, it’s such a tasty way to dress a salad.
What is unique about this version of the recipe is the use of plain 2% Greek yogurt. Greek yogurt is high in protein, full of probiotics and tastes just like sour cream, making it a more nutritious alternative that you can use for anything from topping off tacos or chili to paprikash or ranch dip. Try making the swap in your favorite recipes.
