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!

Why Learning to Cook Later in Life Might Be the Best Thing You Ever Do

Research on cooking skill acquisition in adults consistently finds that people who learn to cook later in life make measurably healthier food choices than those who rely on prepared and processed foods — not because they follow dietary guidelines more carefully, but because the act of cooking from scratch naturally produces meals with lower sodium, fewer additives, and more whole ingredients than the convenience foods they replace. Learning to cook is, among its other benefits, one of the most practical and sustainable health interventions available to any adult at any age.

Chorizo is bold enough in flavor that a modest amount goes a long way, keeping portions reasonable without sacrificing any of the dish’s signature smokiness.

What’s New at Kroger Right Now — From Prebiotic Pepsi to Dirty Mountain Dew

If you’re curious about prebiotic sodas like Prebiotic Pepsi, they’re a meaningful step up from regular soda — lower in calories, made with cane sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup, and containing prebiotic fiber that supports gut health. That said, they’re still a treat rather than a health food. The 3 grams of prebiotic fiber per can is a modest dose compared to what you’d get from whole foods like oats, beans, or bananas. Think of them as a smarter swap for when you’re reaching for a soda anyway, not as a supplement to your daily fiber intake.
