I’ve already shown you how to clean your oven with a mix of baking soda and vinegar. And now, we’re going to tackle those oven racks and rid them of any grime so that they don’t mar your newly cleaned oven. It’s easy to do, and a project you can take on right alongside your oven cleaning!

If you have a bathtub and dishwasher detergent, you are set. The hardest part about this process is the inactive time, but it’s worth it: The soaking of the racks aids in softening up the accumulated gunk, making it easier to wipe and gently scrub off. I barely had to use any force, and my racks are now cleaner than they have been in years.

I have a radical idea that will shake things up, turns some heads, and wow tastebuds all around at your next cookout: Pass on the pasta salad in favor of this sesame noodle number. It’s inspired by the noodle bowls I love for make-ahead lunches and easy dinners, but it goes bigger. Chewy rice noodles are right at home in this cold summer salad for a crowd, bolstered by fresh veggies, tender strips of chicken, and a creamy sesame-ginger dressing that clings to every last bite. It’s quick and easy to pull together and totally satisfying without being too heavy.

If you want to try your hand at baking a cake from scratch (read: you’re ready to graduate from boxed mix), but you’re intimidated by layer cakes, then the sheet cake is your answer. Simply pour the batter into one big baking sheet and you’re done — no leveling, no stacking, no frosting the sides, no stress!

And while sheet cakes are beloved for their simplicity, this version still manages to feel a little fancy, thanks to the addition of matcha in both the cake and the frosting.

Hitting the road with kids in tow? You are in for an adventure! After 20 years of motherhood, I know that vacationing with children is not without its challenges, but I’m equally convinced that it’s worth the effort. We’ve found that getting outside our comfort zone provides us with huge bonding moments. (Even that time the takeout pizza took two hours to arrive at our Le Mans hotel, with hamburger on it instead of pepperoni, has found a treasured place in our collective memory.)

As I type, I’m packing up six kids for a month in Europe. For the second time. No, I’m not crazy. Or rich. In fact, the only way we’re able to swing such a travel endeavor is to do it on a budget. Here are 10 tips that help me and my family eat well and affordably while on the road.

When you’re traveling, most things are out of your control — the weather, equipment malfunctions, your fellow seatmates, delays, the price of (questionable) food options, the amount of healthy food options — but a couple years ago (during my first and only non-cheating stint of Whole30), I figured out a way to take charge of some of those elements.

My life hack? I never travel without a specially packed container of hard-boiled eggs. Here’s how it works.
