    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!

    Aldi Recalls Nearly 10,000 Pounds of Frozen Meatballs Over Metal Contamination Risk

    When cooking with frozen meatballs or any frozen protein, always cook them to the proper internal temperature to ensure food safety—meatballs should reach 165°F. Use a food thermometer to check rather than relying on appearance alone. If you’re making meatballs from scratch, you can control ingredients and sodium levels by using lean ground meat, whole grain breadcrumbs, and fresh herbs. Homemade meatballs can be batch-cooked and frozen for quick, healthier meals throughout the week.
