Relateably, she’d be ravenous, but not have a clue what to make. “Eggs proved to be the most satisfying solution: quick and versatile while also keeping me full,” she told me. At first, she leaned heavily into homemade egg sandwiches—a classic with an English muffin base, a fried egg and a slice of cheese....
Close Photo:Getty Images Getty Images If you have been scrolling through TikTok recently, you may have seen the latest recipe trend that’s ideal for hot summer days. When I saw this trending drink, I knew I had to try it. Does the chocolate even flavor the iced coffee, or is it just for show? Here’s how to make the cracking latte, and read my honest review below. I Tried Unreal’s Lower-Sugar Dark Chocolate Almond Butter Cups, and They Taste Better Than Reese’s...
ClosePhoto: Getty Images / PortraI live in Vermont and while there are many great things that come along with living here (mountains, friendly people and incredible beer, to name a few), it’s not exactly the premiere climate for agriculture. Winters are long and cold, summers are hot and short and seasons change often. Luckily for me, I am a five-minute walk from the local farmers' market in the summer, which makes it easy (and highly enjoyable) to locally procure my produce for the week....
Close Photo: Getty / Westend61 Early in life, there are numerous milestones as you climb the chronological calendar. When you turn 16, you are eligible to get a driver’s license. At 18, you can register to vote. And when celebrating that long-awaited threshold of 21, you are (finally) legally able to drink a beer. However, beyond that, it just seems like the years pass silently until all of a sudden, you are approaching the BIG 5-0....
As a kid, I always looked up to my older brother as the embodiment of athleticism. He was a great runner, and his achievements in the world of competitive racing were awe-inspiring. With each race he conquered, he fueled my desire to follow in his footsteps. But there was one small problem: I didn’t seem to have inherited the natural running gene that he had, and my short-lived eighth-grade cross-country record was proof of that....

So when I had the chance to tryUnreal brand’s chocolate snacks, I couldn’t resist.What Happens to Your Body When You Eat Chocolate Every DayUnreal makes chocolate snacks with up to 51% less added sugar than its competitors.

Back in July, I interviewed cookbook author, actor andThe Drew Barrymore ShowregularValerie Bertinelli. And genuinely, I still think about our chat in the best way. To put it simply, we were just two lovers of food talking about her favorite easy dishes and our shared love for Trader Joe’s. Speaking of the latter, when I asked Bertinelli for her go-to pantry staples that she uses to make quick meals, one of her favorite dishes came to mind....

While the overall feeling of the season is my favorite part, there are so many little things that make this time of year sing, like the magic of harvesting everything fromsweet applestoenchanting pumpkins. I love when this feeling gets captured, and to me, no kitchenware brand does it as well as Le Creuset does it.The brand launches a fall drop every year, and this year’sHarvest Collectionis more captivating than ever....

My trip to the northern state was full of great food and fun adventures, and it was an all-around active time.Visiting this inclined town and surrounding areas requires a lot of walking—walking over 10,000 steps a day, to be specific—so packing the right shoe was essential....
Photo: Courtesy of Brand I love a vacation where all I have to do is park myself in a beach chair. But, a trip where the days are full of exploring is also warmly welcomed.

ClosePhoto: Spindrift Spiked, Getty Images / Issarawat TattongA few summers ago, questioning why I didn’t just go for a beer after suffering through another sub-par spiked seltzer, I wrote them off for good. Whilenon-alcoholic seltzersare a staple of my diet, I find most hard seltzers to be far too sweet and taste almost like medicine. Don’t get me started on the black cherry flavors. Does anyone else get reminded of the cherry cough syrup you drank as a sick child, but watered down and carbonated?...
Close Photo:Eating Well/Getty Images Eating Well/Getty Images I’ve always had a hard time finding balance, which is why an all-or-nothing diet approach used to work for me. As someone who thrives with boundaries in place, keto felt like a great match at the time. It was about 11 years ago when I first became curious about healthy eating. My desire to eat healthy led to goinggluten-freeand low-carb. I was feeling fatigued from a high intake of refined carbs, and that eventually opened the door to keto....
Close Pictured Recipe:Vegan Sushi with Tomato “Tuna” To be clear, I’m very far from being a vegan in my normal day-to-day life. As the Test Kitchen Manager at EatingWell, I develop and taste an average of 40 recipes per week, most of which arenotvegan. At home, I put a hefty splash of half-and-half in my coffee every morning, assemble a small cheese plate instead of dessert almost every night, and my freezer is stocked with a quarter of a cow, half a pig, and venison and rabbits my husband hunted himself....
