Whether you’re packing a bunch of lunches, getting ready for ravenous post-school kids, or stocking up for your Netflix binges, no one wants to spend a ton of money on snacks. And that can be hard considering the healthiest snacks, like nuts and fruit, can be on the pricey side. So we visited our favorite low-cost grocery stores — Costco and Aldi — to see who had the better deals.

National Avocado Day is like millennial Christmas. This year it lands on Tuesday, July 31, and Chipotle restaurants around the U.S. will be celebrating by giving away free sides of guacamole with any entree. That’s right — for one magical day at Chipotle, guac will not be extra.

Mint is a terrific herb to keep around the kitchen — or to grow on your own! It’s very hearty. (Just keep it away from other herbs, because it’ll overtake them.) As a kitchen herb, it pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes. Throw it into your morning smoothie, make a mint pesto to top chicken, or blend it into a cool dip. If you have a bunch of mint to work with, look to these 10 recipes for a little inspiration.

I’m pretty sure kids have hated vegetables since the beginning of time. One of these days anthropologists will unearth new cave paintings depicting families eating dinner together, and there, between the fire and the spear, will be a pictograph of a kid refusing to try his spinach. That’s the kid mine descended from, at least.
I really try not to hate the moms who say, “Oh, vegetables? I just stick anything I can into Sally’s sandwich, and she eats it.” That’s great for little Sally, but not every kid wolfs down Caesar salad and roasted cauliflower voluntarily. Luckily, there’s usually one vegetable (or two, if you’re lucky) that even the pickiest kid will eat. For mine, it’s edamame (this week, at least). So there’s hope.
We asked 10 moms to tell us about the vegetable (or vegetables!) their kids eat, and how. Read on to learn how cutting zucchini differently, offering up new dips for carrots, or involving them in the cooking process can motivate even the most die-hard veggie hater. (Also, you should probably try cooking artichokes.)

When it comes to choosing sides for frozen macaroni and cheese, you can go one of two ways: cook some vegetables to serve on top of (or folded into) the macaroni, or make a fresh slaw to serve alongside it. Truthfully, sometimes I do both to satisfy everyone at the table. Here are 10 of my favorite sides that make mac and cheese a meal.

If you have Champagne taste and a beer budget, today is your lucky day. Cuisinart’s Dutch oven, which looks a lot like Le Creuset’s, is on sale — today only — for $55. (It’s impressively marked down by 69 percent from its list price of $180.) Worried it won’t be as good as the Le Creuset? The 5.5-quart oval, which even comes in two fun matte options, has 4.3 stars on Amazon.

We’ve sung the praises of Fouta (aka Turkish towels, Peshtemal, or Hammam) before. They’re lightweight and thin, which makes them great for folding and storing, but still pretty absorptive. If they’re authentic, the cotton gets softer with every wash. They come in a bunch of shades, perfect for adding a pop of color to any space that needs it.
They’re a little tough to get used to fully drying yourself off with one of these guys after a shower or bath (versus a fluffier towel), but I think we can all get behind using the smaller versions as dish or hand towels. The only drawback there, in my opinion, has been how expensive they can be. Well, not anymore.

As you may have heard, the new 2019 IKEA catalog came out today! (Related: Your Absolute Favorite IKEA Product Now Comes in a New Color.) In honor of the new shopping grail — and the store’s 75th anniversary — the company is also launching an interactive space in New York City and Chicago, called IKEA Inspiration Experience, where visitors can walk through four sample rooms, eat some meatballs, compete for prizes, and more.
We got a tour of the space this morning — plus, a physical copy of the catalog — and here are the 10 best kitchen buys we found.

A smartly stocked freezer is a true asset for a solo cook. It ensures easy, fast meals for one are always within arm’s reach, no matter the day or occasion. And, of course, it’s a great place to stash leftovers. Here are seven ways to stock your freezer if you’re cooking for one.

Getting kids to eat veggies is often a challenge. Pasta, rice, and bread are easy, but lots of kids shy away from the more complex — and healthy — stuff. I’ve been lucky with my girls: They mostly eat their vegetables (sometimes even with gusto!). Still, if they had a choice between cheese and crackers or spinach? Yeah, they’re going for the crackers.
There are two reliable ways I’ve found to get in extra veggies with no complaint — and to my surprise, both involve buying frozen veggies.
