Trader Joe’s and 365 (Whole Foods’ younger sibling) have a lot in common. They both advertise quality ingredients and good values; lean heavily on their respective house brands; pre-package all meat, fish, and poultry; and are a go-to source for on-trend products like flax seeds and coconut flour.
Of course, there are some differences between the two. Trader Joe’s has all those delicious frozen specialties (think: bite-sized spanakopita and mac and cheese balls), plus a ridiculous selection of nuts (there are 20 different types of almonds at my local store!). And 365s have a huge salad bar, hot-food steam tables, rotisserie chickens, and a more robust range of household necessities (like baby food, baking needs, ice, and trash bags).
Both offer much to gourmands and enterprising home cooks. But all differences aside, where will you get more bananas for your buck?

There is something eternally satisfying and soothing about buttered pasta. Toss warm strands of spaghetti with a pat of rich butter and a sprinkle of grated Parm and you’ve got an ultra-comforting meal that comes together in minutes. Use that as inspiration, then up the ante with nutty brown butter, golden toasted panko, and a double dose of cheese and you’ve got a comforting dish that’s fancy enough for when friends pop over.

Recently, a friend of mine and her family stayed in our apartment for the weekend while we were out of town. Before they arrived, my husband and I dutifully changed the sheets, swapped out the towels, and stocked up on coffee. Our guests had a great time, sampling all our local parks, favorite food stores, and local museums. When we got home, I was happy to see that they’d put the house back in order, but I discovered three new packs of toilet paper in the linen closet. I’d forgotten to leave them with enough toilet paper!
No biggie, but I felt bad. And it made me wonder — because I’m currently out of dishwasher detergent and often running out for last-minute Swifter refills — why didn’t I have a stockpile of extra stuff? Isn’t that what grown-ups do?

More and more, I try to bring my lunch to work. Not only is it economical, but it also cuts down on food waste — because, for some reason, my husband and kids are not super interested in eating the same thing for dinner five nights in a row.
I’ve also tried to convert to glass containers. And while I have a few, I find them to be fairly heavy, which matters when I’ve already got a shoulder bag crammed with other totally important stuff to carry. So I hold on to my old plastic ones and use them just fine. But, unlike glass, they can stain after a while with foods like tomato sauce or curry, and once they’re discolored I get a little grossed out by them. The solution is not to throw them away (as I feel like doing), but to clean them.
So I set out to figure out the best way to get those pesky stains out of my tried-and-true plastic containers.

Here’s a simple yet satisfying salad to make for dinner tonight. If you’ve got a couple cans of white beans in your pantry, you’re already halfway there. Drain the beans and toss in as many juicy, in-season cherry tomatoes as you can possibly fit in the bowl; add a few big handfuls of tangy, salty feta and plenty of chopped fresh parsley and oregano; and then dress the whole mess in a sharp, aromatic shallot vinaigrette. The result is a flavor-packed salad that feels hearty yet still light and fresh enough to fit the season.

Have you ever tried mojo? The cuban sauce is heavy on the garlic and orange juice, and it happens to be a delicious marinade for chicken. With a little prep work, this sheet pan mojo chicken is a total weeknight win.

Rachel Yang has become a household name in Seattle food circles and beyond. Together with her husband and business partner, Seif Chirchi, she has three restaurants in Seattle and a fourth in Portland. Their first restaurant, Joule, earned the pair a James Beard nomination and a nod from Bon Appetit (the magazine ranked the Korean steakhouse #9 on its annual Best Restaurant in America in 2013). Frank Bruni featured the asparagus rice bowl at Revel on The Best Thing I Ever Ate, and Trove — a four-in-one restaurant, complete with a frozen custard stand — is no small feat (which is to say, incredibly impressive).
But whether people are talking about eating her Korean-inspired rice bowls on the breezy porch at Revel or comparing noodle favorites from the bright noodle bar at Trove, there’s something they might not realize: While she and Seif are building a successful restaurant empire, they’re also raising two adorable boys, Pike and Rye.
