HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE MARCH ISSUE OF SOUTHERN LIVING MAGAZINE
----
How To Be Green and Clean, Fabulous Flea Market Decorating Ideas, and
Tempting Two-Bite Desserts
Birmingham, AL – Southern Living emerges in March with a bold new look and feel. Our new combined Home & Garden section has flea market-inspired decorating ideas, tips for the garden, and how to be green and clean. Hungry? We conquer your sweet tooth with Tempting Two-Bite Desserts and a special Healthy Living section on how to fry with a clear conscience.
Flea Market Fabulous (p. 64)
Southern Living visits with Deb Casey of McKinney, Texas, for ideas on how to pull together favorite finds. Tips include:
- You don’t have to choose between metal, glass, or silver; group what you love.
- Don’t spend a ton of money: All of our finds were between $6 and $40.
- Scratches and dents lend character; don’t fret over tiny flaws.
- Check out our favorite shop finds at SouthernLiving.com
Tempting Two-Bite Desserts (p. 102)
Cutting back on sweets? End your meal on a sweet but sensible note with these lavishly satisfying treats: Chocolate-Coffee Cheesecake Tartlets and Raspberry Tiramisu Bites.
Healthy Living (p. 109)
Fry With a Clear Conscience – If you think healthy eating means giving up the foods you love, think again. Check out our lightened and oven-baked recipes for Pecan-Crusted Chicken Tenders, Coconut Shrimp, and Light-and-Crispy Catfish. Plus, tips from our Test Kitchens on how to get great crispy taste in the oven every time.
Take the Party Outside (p. 130)
Celebrate spring with an outdoor supper. Start with tangy, no-cook Avocado Soup, then fire up the grill for a succulent pork tenderloin paired with Grilled Fennel and Radicchio and a side of Creamy Gruyere Grits. All of these recipes have a prep time of 15 minutes or less and can be made ahead.
Green Clean (p. 120)
Just in time for spring cleaning, Southern Living Executive Home & Garden Editor Derrick Belden sits down with experts and gets the lowdown on green cleaning products. Tips include:
- Look for dishwasher detergents that contain no phosphates. Waste treatment plants can’t remove phosphates.
- Drain cleaners are the most hazardous, but there really isn’t an option, so buy just enough for one use.
- Just because it says “all natural” doesn’t mean it is necessarily environmentally safe.
