Balsamic-Honey Roasted Root Vegetables
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 50 mins
This is an easy, inexpensive, stress-free recipe even a beginning cook could whip together. Perfect for fall and winter. This dish is usually served hot, but is also very tasty cold, either by itself or mixed in with spring greens and a balsamic or "goddess" dressing. You can easily substitute other root vegetables if you don't have these on hand - Try celery root, baking potatoes, red beets, etc.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 5 large carrots, unpeeled, in 3/4 inch slices
- 1 large yam, peeled, in 1 x 1 inch cubes
- 1 large rutabaga, peeled, in 1 x 1 inch cubes
- 4 turnips, peeled, in 1 x 1 inch cubes
- 1 large parsnip, in 3/4 inch slices
- 3 yellow beets, peeled, in 1 x 1 inch cubes
- 6 garlic cloves, unpeeled
- 3 stalks celery, in 3/4 inch slices
- 1⁄4 cup olive oil
- 1⁄4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1⁄3 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, minced
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- fresh ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 -3 small boiling potatoes, in 1x1 inch cubes (Yukon or New varieties) (optional)
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Cut the bottom 1/4 inch of each garlic clove off but do not peel cloves.
- Toss ingredients in a deep baking dish.
- Roast, uncovered, for approximately 30 minutes or until all vegetables are soft throughout.
- Toss vegetables and turn heat up to 400 degrees. Roast until vegetables are browned and caramelized (15-20 minutes).
- Serve hot or at room temperature.
Most Helpful
Tasty, tasty! I used only what I had on hand---red beets, sweet potato, and parsnips---and subbed agave for honey. Beautiful color and texture! Excellent side for an otherwise "beige" meal---I served this with chicken loaf and pasta with Alfredo sauce. Mmm!
this was really good but next time I will disregard cooking time and temp--just put oven at 400 and roast for about an hour (or longer if necessary) . Otherwise you'll be there all day! toss veggies occasionally and watch for burning!
Made this a day ahead, then heated it up as part of our Thanksgiving dinner. I did not have beets, yellow or red, and used extra parsnips. This was very tasty and I would make it again.

The U.S. job market is improving despite higher taxes and government spending cuts.
Employers added 165,000 jobs in the month of April, reducing the unemployment rate from 7.6 to 7.5 percent -- a four-year low.
The report from the Labor Department shows the only sectors that cut jobs last month were construction and government.
"This is a good report," Wells Fargo Chief Economist John Silvia said. "There's a lot of strength... It's good for the economy. It's good for people's income." Meanwhile, the Dow Jones industrial average hit an all-time high Friday on news of the latest unemployment numbers, breaking the 15,000 point mark for the first time.
Although Friday's jobs report puts a positive spin on the economy, none of the jobs created were in the manufacturing sector, something Scott Paul, president of the Alliance for American Manufacturing, says is a bad sign.
Paul shared more of his insights on the matter on Newswatch, May 3. Check your local listings or check CBNNews.com after 5 p.m. ET for that report.

Children Of The Cornhole!
Two years ago at the Opry Plaza Party to kick off the CMA Music Festival, Jaclyn was 18 months pregnant. In fact, I'm pretty certain that Carsyn was crowning here at the show that made country music famous. See, Jaclyn and I brought cornhole boards down to Nashville and challenged folks to a little "friendly" competition. Despite the fact that Jaclyn's stomach looked like something out of the movie Alien, we were amazing. We played all day long and only lost TWICE!!! We are MASTERS of this game . . . or so we thought!

It's tough to even write this out, but Dale McGowan, who began Foundation Beyond Belief and served as its Executive Director since the beginning, has decided to step down from his position.
There's no problem with the organization and it was Dale's decision alone to pursue other interests, but it means we (the board) are looking for a new leader.

Mark, have you seen this video at NPR Music...it introduced me to Darkside...
Very cool. Thanks for sharing that. I saw them first on Pitchfork and then noticed them cropping on various lists. But, I had not seen the NPR video.
The guy that does the metal part of Pitchfork had them on his list. Swans and Neurosis have touch a lot of us.....I think many of us that enjoy the more experimental side of heavy music, are open to off beat electronic and ambient kinds of music. I pretty much like any kind of psychedelic influence. Also, enjoy artists that combine electronic elements with traditional instrumentation and vocals. I just love the combination of this band.
Just purchased Phospherescent's -Muchacho...really enjoyable acoustic/indie folk with complex arrangments
Also, speaking of interesting heavy music. This one should have cross over appeal-lots of melody...one of the best metal releases of the year IMO-Fair warning...the dyanamics aren't great (I.e., compressed sound unfortunately), but a very interesting band....2 violinists and a solid female vocalist. Luv this band. This is not your father's metal

Audi passed through two mergers before emerging on its own as one-third of Germany's luxury brand triumvirate – and one renowned as a benchmark-setter in interior design. Its logo of four interlocked rings is related to its first merger – in 1932 as part of the Auto Union along with DKW, Horch and Wanderer. The 1966 Audi 80 and 1977 Audi 100 sedans signaled the brand's executive-car ambitions, and the 1980 Quattro sports car forced automotive cartographers into action by dominating world rallying for three years and giving the all-conditions benefits of four-wheel drive traction in the motoring mainstream. Audi has since used technology as a key facet of its marketing – cue the "Vorsprung durch technik" catchline – while quattro was adopted as the name of the company's division responsible for high-performance models such as the RS4. These also include the R8 supercar that was founded in Audi's 1998 takeover of Lamborghini and named after the racer that, in 2000, began a period of spectacular success at the famous Le Mans 24-Hour race. It's hard, however, to look past the TT as the company's most emblematic model.Read more

text: #bytesofchina - I am watching a person using her Huawei smartphone to video record a video on another shanZai Samsung smartphone. I asked her what she was trying to do, she said she wanted the video on her own phone. I then realized that despite widespread smartphone ownership in rural areas, people may not necessarily understand how to manage files or even have the concept of file structure. Later on, the woman asked me to become wechat contacts. I automatically opened up wechat on my phone and opened up my QR code, as this is how I always add or am added to new wechat contacts. She then looked at me in confusion as I placed my phone near her phone. It took me a moment to realize she may not know how to use the QR Code feature. She then asked me what I was showing her, I then explained that QR Code scanning was one way to add people on wechat. This moment reflects many ways that the context for smartphone use in rural areas is different from urban areas. For example, in rural areas, QR codes are not common in stores, e-commerce is not concentrated, and there aren't apps for geographically located communities such as restaurant reviews or taxi service. #triciainchina #livefieldnote #guizhou

Grain Expectations: Accommodating Venues for the Gluten-Free Foodie
By A.D. Thompson
Orlando Local Expert
First rule of gluten-free eating? DEFINITELY TALK ABOUT GLUTEN-FREE EATING. Staffers at the below venues will be happy to discuss their ingredients and kitchen practices with you before you order, which is precisely what you should do before taking a bite. And for those living with gluten allergies – or simply trying to eliminate offending grains from their culinary repertoire – Orlando's list of options is growing exponentially. At venues such as Dandelion Communitea Café or Infusion Tea, GF diners will find myriad selections rife with fresh crisp, crunchy ingredients, creamy spreads and hearty soups, but let's face it: not every gluten-free eater is all about organic, sustainably farmed, green foodstuffs. Those with a penchant for the fryer will find sinful solace at either Downtown Disney or Universal's CityWalk. At Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville, you can have your cheeseburger in paradise with a gluten-free bun (not to mention Volcano Nachos and a decadent Chocolate Hurricane dessert). Over at the Raglan Road Irish Pub, they keep a whole separate fryer on hand, which means usually-off-limits delights such as fried fish, calamari and onion rings are on tap – along with some excellent GF cider. For those on the go, check out the drive-through at the Green Day Café, where gluten-free quesadillas are an everyday occurrence.
Mythos Restaurant
Mythos is a wholly immersive dining experience, removing you at once from the fray of Universal with its beautiful, mystical cave-like aura. Not only has Mythos received all kinds of "best theme park restaurant" nods from foodies and expert Orlando bloggers of all stripes, this Islands of Adventure lunch venue has all kinds of options for gluten-free diners that fall well outside the realms of uninspired salad and grilled chicken. No less than 11 options – from appetizer to entrée – either are or can be prepared gluten-free, from pad thai to Asian salmon, blackened fish tacos to a daily risotto offering. ((407) 224-4534)
Hot Krust Panini Kitchen
Serving up tasty fast-casual eats from its comfortable Dr. Phillips digs, this cheery "paninery" does up a multitude of classic pressed sandwiches with fresh, locally made bread and house-roasted meats, which makes a big difference when it comes to taste. What's more is that those with a gluten-free diet can have their panini and eat it, too. The soups are GF, as well, and prepared in an outside gluten-free kitchen – and so unlike sandwiches, are certified (ie, celiac-safe). Fries are baked to order, so while you should avoid the spicy curlies, you can go for the sweet potato and regular waffle-cut varieties with abandon. ((407) 355-7768)
Jimmy Buffett's® Margaritaville® Orlando
Lime, tequila and salt are all – mercifully – gluten-free, but one wouldn't think the same about a cheeseburger in paradise. But Jimmy, bless his heart, made sure that GF customers at his Universal CityWalk establishment could enjoy just that. But it doesn't stop there. Volcano Nachos (gobbed down with chili, cheese, guacamole – all the good stuff – may fill you up before you make it to burgertown). Additional selections include an array chicken and seafood options and the Chocolate Hurricane, a dieter's disaster, for sure, which piles a gluten-free brownie sky-high with vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, whipped cream and macadamia nuts. (407-224-2155)
Nile Ethiopian Restaurant
The Nile ain't just a river in Egypt, as the saying goes (sort of). In Orlando, it's one of a handful of independent restaurants amid I-Drive's sea of chain offerings, one serving up authentic Ethiopian fare in traditional style. What does this mean? For starters, no utensils. Getting the food to your face requires the use of injera, a spongy, tasty, vaguely crepe-like bread. Tear a piece off and simply scoop up the lentils, stewed chicken, seasoned beef or whatever other selections intrigued you and enjoy. Bonus? Most Ethopian dishes are naturally gluten-free! Call ahead at least an hour (more to be on the safe side) and let them know you're coming. They'll bake up a load of gluten-free injera that uses only teff flour – actually more traditional than the wheat/teff hybrid Nile generally makes! The result, a thoroughly authentic Ethiopian experience that's enjoyable for everyone in your party. ((407) 354-0026)
Raglan Road Irish Pub
Cold pints and warm, convivial vibe are always on tap at Raglan Road, which isn't lying when it calls itself a genuine Irish pub. In fact, the whole place was built in Ireland and then shipped to Orlando where it was lovingly reassembled to the delight of locals and visitors alike. Think of it as Disney magic with a little help from the leprechauns. Granted, just about everyone loves the place, but gluten-free diners (especially locals) make many return visits. Why? How about onion rings just for starters? Like many Disney establishments, Raglan Road does its best to accommodate all special dietary needs – check with knowledgeable servers and managers for input and suggestions. They offer gluten-free scallops, fish and chips, calamari, pasta dishes and more. (4079380300)
Green Day Cafe
Super Veggie, Holy Guacamole and the Big Tahuna are just some of the fun salads (make it a wrap, regular or gluten-free, it's your choice!) available at the Green Day Café, a newish healthy fast-food franchise with an outpost in North Orlando. Vegans and carnivores and everyone in between will find selections to suit their idiosyncratic palates and gluten-free diners will delight in a menu stocked with loaded potatoes, rice bowls and even GF quesadillas. What's more – you don't even need to get out of your car. The Green Day Cafe boasts a drive-through window for health-conscious eaters on the go. ((407) 704-7877)
Infusion Tea
Infusion Tea: it's the happy hub of the College Park Sunday Brunch Market and a haven for both tea lovers – and healthy eaters. Infusion boasts a wonderful array of healthful eats and pays heed to vegans, gluten-forgoers and a host of other quirky foodies. Add eggs or tempeh crumbles to salads for a protein boost. Make just about any wrap gluten-free for $1 extra. Come for the lunch and stay long enough to steep some loose-leaf tea and get comfortable. And be sure to check out in-house chocolate and dessert purveyor, Chocolate Provocateur, whose wares include gluten-free offerings, as well! (407-999-5255, 866-346-5135)
Dandelion Communitea Café
The dandelion, an edible flower that we're quick to call a weed, is a mascot of sorts for this quirky organic teahouse. You'll first be reminded of the café's namesake when you view the exterior (bright green with yellow shutters) and then again when reading the menu: vegetarian, sustainable and healthful. Diners with gluten restrictions? Seriously? This is your place. So many tiny GFs next to the menu items, your head may well spin like a wheat-free Linda Blair (sans digestive issues). Every salad. Every side. Most appetizers. All gluten-free. And served in pleasantly crunchy confines that may have you inquiring about the next full moon drum circle. (407-362-1864)
Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant
Cooper's Hawk is a winery based in Chicago. How's that, you ask? Simple: they fly in high-quality grapes from west coast regions – California, Oregon and Washington – and craft the wines in Chi. Since 2005, its tasting room/bar/restaurant concept has expanded. Waterford Lakes is its first Orlando location and its tasting room (no reservations necessary) offers reasonably priced samplings. Gluten-free dining is oft challenging, but here it's actually a pleasure. An entire, separate gluten-free menu including apps, entrees, desserts, sandwiches – even an array of pastas! – gives those with special diets not just options, but utter dining-out normalcy! How cool is that?! (407.374.2464)
Vitality Bistro
Wanna eat clean? Vitality Bistro is a great place to start. The proprietors at this raw, vegan, organic and entirely gluten-free operation believe that a plant-based diet is essential for optimum health – but oftentimes, even carnivorous patrons leave with a newfound appreciation for what's possible using only what Mother Nature grows us from the ground. From salads to smoothies, sandwiches to desserts, foodies will find surprisingly rich "creams" and delicious wheat-free breads, cakes, pies and more to eat in or take home. Bonus! Sunday brunches are of particular note and free Thursday-night classes give guests a more in-depth opportunity to learn about vegan and raw-food preparation. ((352) 735-8411)

CLEMSON – Given a chance to speak for the first time since making controversial comments over the summer, Clemson junior wide receiver Sammy Watkins was more reserved in his opinions without relinquishing his confidence.
A 2011 first-team All-American his freshman year before suspension and illness marred his sophomore campaign, Watkins was quoted by the Greenville News as viewing this season's opening opponent, Georgia, as basically a speed bump to championship dreams.
"If we come out and beat Georgia, not just beat 'em but beat the mess out of 'em like we should, I don't see no problems in getting started in the right direction," Watkins told the newspaper. "I don't have disrespect for them or for nobody else. I just believe we can be just the kind of team we want to be, the talent is here, we know how to win."
The article, originally posted June 30, has since been removed from the newspaper's web site.
Watkins did choose Tuesday night to clarify those comments, which sparked some headlines two months before the start of the season.
"It really did surprise me. I think I kind of worded it the wrong way. But I definitely have the utmost respect for Georgia," Watkins said. "I mean, they're 11-2 last year, a great quarterback, great running backs. So I just really had to show my team and my coaches I do have confidence in my team. I just should have worded it different, instead of saying beat the mess out of them."
Featuring Aaron Murray back at quarterback, and Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall at running back, the Bulldogs are loaded on offense. The defense lost eight players, including seven drafted by the NFL in April, so questions remain there.
But Georgia, ranked No. 5 in the coaches' preseason poll, were five yards away from knocking off eventual national championship Alabama in the SEC Championship Game.
"They're a great SEC team, they could have won the national championship," Watkins said. "We definitely have to come ready and prepared to play those guys. They're not going to come in Death Valley and just bow down to us."
There's another Clemson opponent which did take exception to some other Watkins quotes in the original article. Florida State defensive back Lamarcus Joyner, asked about Watkins' big-play ability July 22 at ACC Media Days in Greensboro, N.C., was unimpressed by the mention of his name.
"Gotta compete. I don't think he's a guy you can go defeat on paper, like, OK, it's Sammy Watkins, play 30 yards off him, make sure you do this, do that," Joyner said. "Because a guy like that, he's going to get his. So you've got to let him know we've got guys in this program just as good as you. And that's how we feel at Florida State. That's the standard we set."
Watkins challenged the Seminoles in June – "I want to be pressed at the line on every play. I pray that they do," he was quoted as saying – and remains convinced he can handle the hands-on approach, even though he was held to 24 receiving yards in last fall's 47-31 defeat in Tallahassee.
"I had to beat a lot of pressure my freshman year. I didn't see it last year a lot," Watkins said Tuesday. "We got to Florida State; that was my second game back, I was kind of wanting the ball, frustrated, not in shape, there were a lot of off-field issues and wasn't prepared for the press defense.
"But this year will be totally different, and we'll be prepared."
Joyner is moving over to cornerback from safety.
"I welcome anybody at cornerback. He's a great player," Watkins said. "But our receiver corps, we really don't bow down to anyone. We welcome press coverage. We want cornerbacks to press us."
- Head coach Dabo Swinney said freshman athlete T.J. Green hyperextended his knee during Tuesday's practice, but didn't expect the injury to be serious. Green is the third freshman to be injured this fall, following cornerback Mackensie Alexander and Mike Williams.
- It's fair to say Swinney's thrilled with the true freshmen. "This is a really good freshmen class. From top to bottom, I really think we hit on all these guys." In particular, Swinney raved over tight end Jordan Leggett – "I mean, there's no question he's going to play" – and defensive end Shaq Lawson – "he just jumps out at you."
- Watkins' mom and stepdad are moving to Clemson, which continues a trend of player families moving to town. Quarterback Tajh Boyd, safety Travis Blanks and running back Zac Brooks are others whose parents have relocated close to their sons.

Market Overview
The U.K., through its referendum to exit the European Union (EU), dropped a Brexit bombshell on unsuspecting markets in late June, causing volatility to spike, stocks to plunge and U.S. Treasury yields to fall to near record lows. Just as quickly, however, the markets turned, with panic trading giving way to more reasoned analysis that seemed to dismiss much of the immediate worry over the U.K.'s eventual exodus from the EU—a protracted process that if not reversed will take years to carry out. In the end, a rally in the final three days of June left the Dow and S&P 500 up for the month and the second quarter and not far off their all-time highs. Bond yields, by comparison, moved little in the month's final days and held near record lows.
To be sure, much uncertainty remains about Brexit and its impact, not only regarding the U.K. but also the rest of Europe. Near-term, downside risks include fluctuating currencies and policy unknowns, both of which may threaten business investment and profit growth. But the biggest risk may be to the cohesion of the EU where, as in the U.S., populist anti-globalization and anti-immigration forces also are stirring political turmoil in countries such as in Spain, Italy and France.
Limited direct spillover from Brexit is expected in the U.S., where exports to the U.K. are a fraction of gross domestic product (GDP). While the British pound fell sharply following the surprise vote, its impact on the trade-weighted dollar was limited, easing worries that the dollar's moderation of the past six months may reverse and damage both economic and profit growth. As for the U.S., GDP growth has perked up from the first quarter's subpar 1.1% annual pace on improvements in housing, inventories and consumer spending. But manufacturing continues to struggle and payroll gains have slowed amid demographic challenges such as retiring baby boomers and signs some companies were struggling to find qualified workers.
Policy uncertainty also continues to weigh on business confidence and spending, not just because of Brexit, but also because of a U.S. presidential election between two polarizing candidates whose campaigns are set to shift into high gear with this summer's nominating party conventions. On the plus side, the futures markets now think the combination of uncertainty, a slowing labor market and Brexit will keep the Federal Reserve (Fed) at bay through the end of the year and into 2017, continuing a low-rate/low-yield environment that's generally favorable for stocks.
Fund Performance
Notwithstanding the heightened volatility surrounding the market over Brexit, the upcoming U.S. election, and the Fed's future decision on rate hikes, Federated Strategic Value Dividend Fund remains focused on its goals of obtaining a high and rising income stream as it ended the month with a 30 day SEC yield of 2.7% (Class A Shares at Maximum Offering Price) and a gross weighted average yield of 3.74%. The portfolio's yield exceeded that of the broad market represented by the S&P 500 (2.17%), the 10 year U.S. Treasury Note (1.49%) and even the Dow Jones Select Dividend Index (3.37%), which aims to represent the domestic high-dividend-paying universe. Enhancing the portfolio's high yield, the portfolio experienced robust growth in the second quarter as seven holdings raised their dividend. The most notable increases came courtesy of Johnson & Johnson, Unilever and General Mills, which raised their dividend payments by 6.7%, 6.0% and 4.3%, respectively. This was the second increase for General Mills this calendar year, as the company also increased in March, for a cumulative increase of 9.1%. Additionally, GlaxoSmithKline declared a special cash distribution, valued at 20 Great Britain pounds per share, or approximately $0.58 per share, payable on May 15, 2016. Looking at a longer time frame, 30 companies within the portfolio raised their dividends, accounting for 34 increases overall in the trailing 12-months.
For the second quarter of 2016, the fund posted a total return of 6.74% (A Shares at net asset value) outperforming both the S&P 500 (2.46%) and also the Dow Jones Select Dividend Index (5.40%). This brings the fund's year-to-date return to 15.23 % (A Shares at net asset value). Factor performance for most of the quarter was mixed, but the unexpected Brexit vote caused a stampede into safe, defensive havens as high-yield and low-beta performance surged. Consequentially, the top performers in the broad market after Energy (+11.6%) were the defensive, dividend-friendly Telecom Services (+7.1%) and Utilities (+6.8%). Those sectors posting negative returns in the S&P 500 Index were Information Technology (-2.9%) and Consumer Discretionary (-0.9%).

The fund's top-contributing sector was Consumer Staples, producing a return of 7.0% (notably higher than the S&P 500 Index holdings of 4.5%). This outperformance was driven by double-digit returns in General Mills (+13.4%), Kraft Heinz (+13.4%), and Altria (+11.0%). Energy (+13.4%) also helped performance as the portfolio benefitted from the highest increase in U.S. crude gains in two months, climbing more than 4% after the Brexit rebound. The portfolio's top performer for the quarter, BP, posted a notable return of 18.6%. The portfolio's performance was further enhanced by the strong performance in Health Care (+8.7%), as every holding posted strong positive performance, led by Johnson and Johnson (+12.9%), Merck (+9.8%) and Abbvie (9.4%).
Consumer Discretionary was the only sector to post a negative return (-3.5%); as its sole holding, McDonalds, gave back modestly on previous gains associated with promotional activity. Other investments to post negative returns included Omega Healthcare, (-2.2%), Coca Cola (-1.5%), and Vodafone (-0.9%). In association with Brexit, the British pound declined 7%, creating some currency headwind for the portfolio. However, the fund's U.K. investments are large, defensive, multi-national companies, such as Unilever and GlaxoSmithKline, which derive their revenue streams from around the globe. As a result, our non-U.S. investments also benefitted from the flight to safety and finished the quarter with an average positive return of 5.5%.
Click on the Portfolio Characteristics tab for the fund's top 10 holdings.
The importance of investing in high-quality, non-cyclical, mature companies is highlighted in this current period of turmoil. As reflected in the portfolio's beta of just 0.67 (Wilshire 3-year beta versus the S&P calculated using the monthly return), high-quality, dividend-paying companies typically have experienced notably less volatility than stocks whose returns are solely reliant on their stock prices. We believe that the portfolio's slow and steady investment strategy presents a compelling investment option that can address a diverse range of ages and investment needs.
