Ina Garten, the queen of “store-bought is fine” and giant cosmopolitans, has released a new cookbook for the first time in four years. Simply Ina hit shelves on October 20, and we’ve never been more inspired to try out her recipes.

Save Your Money: This $70 Pan Is Just as Good as the Premium Ones in My Kitchen (for Half the Price)

Micki Wagner — Wed, 21 Oct 2026 09:45:00 -0400

Saucepans are an unsung hero in the kitchen, in my opinion. They might not be the kind of thing you use every single day, like a fry pan, but they’re a necessity for making pasta, boiling eggs, browning butter, whipping up sauces, warming soups, and so much more. Saucepans are a cooking workhorse. And one of the best I’ve ever used is Tramontina’s Signature Tri-Ply Clad Stainless Steel Saucepan. READ MORE...

Patty Catalano — Wed, 21 Oct 2026 07:00:00 -0400

One way that I often decide on what to make for dinner is to use the flavors of classic dishes in easy-to-eat meatball meals. This meatball main is inspired by chicken Florentine. Here, tender meatballs are made with ground chicken, nutty Parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, and bright lemon zest then baked until golden-brown and juicy. While the oven takes care of the meatballs, you can tend to the sauce. READ MORE...

Alexandra Foster — Tue, 20 Oct 2026 13:30:00 -0400

Inflation has been on the rise for the past few months, and one of the major places where shoppers are feeling it is at the grocery store. Food prices are up 3.4% within the past year, according to the USDA, and there are no signs of relief anytime soon. As much as you try to budget while grocery shopping, those high prices add up and may mean you have to shift your spending habits. But which areas across the United States are feeling the greatest impact? READ MORE...

Laura Rege — Tue, 20 Oct 2026 13:00:00 -0400

John Wayne casserole has all the hallmarks of a classic ’70s and ’80s American casserole: It has convenient grocery store ingredients layered into a rich, bubbling, comfort-food meal. The recipe originated from a 1979 cookbook by 10-year-old Cara Connery — she and her mother wrote letters to various celebrities soliciting their favorite recipes to include in a cookbook intended to raise money for cancer research.

I’m great at making breakfast on the weekends, but on weekdays? I’m always on the hunt for something fast and easy. These 1-minute microwave eggs have quickly become my go-to. They remind me of the Starbucks egg bites I used to grab on busy mornings, except I can make mine at home for a fraction of the price.

Oreo Just Announced an Extremely Limited-Edition Cookie Flavor

Celia Funderburk — Tue, 20 Oct 2026 10:00:00 -0400

My parents always have a jar of Oreos in their kitchen. Most of the time it’s filled with Golden Oreos, which my dad and I both call our favorite flavor. But sometimes we swap that flavor for the classic chocolate cookie. During the holidays, we might even get wild and go for mint Oreos. So I’m always intrigued by a new Oreo flavor drop or collab. To date, I’ve been most impressed by this past summer’s limited-edition deep-fried Oreo cookie flavor. READ MORE...
