Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Happy National S’mores Day — Here’s Every Way to Celebrate Today

S’mores are one of the more naturally portion-controlled campfire treats — the classic two-graham-cracker format is a built-in serving size that’s hard to accidentally double without some effort. If you’re making them at home today, the S’mores Muddy Buddies recipe is one of the lighter options in the Daily Dish lineup, since the snack mix format naturally encourages smaller handfuls over larger portions. And if you’re reaching for a s’mores-flavored product like cereal or a Frappuccino, pairing it with a protein source — a handful of nuts alongside the cereal, or a Frappuccino after a protein-forward lunch — helps keep blood sugar from spiking and crashing on what’s otherwise a sugar-forward holiday.
