This week my big kid starts first grade, and my littlest heads back to pre-k. I’m welcoming the return of our routine with open arms, despite the fact that back to school also means back to packing lunches and snacks, and getting up a little earlier to prep breakfasts and dinners before drop-off.

Of course, we’re still in the midst of warm weather that is keeping me from cranking up the oven and sweating during dinnertime, so this week I’m reaching for my slow cooker to assist me in making five easy dinners.

Whether you’re planning a summer barbecue or an informal dinner, you can never go wrong with cole slaw. Creamy, tangy and crunchy, it’s always a crowd pleaser. But most cole slaw recipes use ingredients that contain sugar or other added sweeteners as well as mayo made with industrial seed oils. Not this recipe. Here you’ll find a healthier version all around and one that even fits the needs of a keto dieter—with all the fresh taste you’ve come to expect.

The goodness of Primal Kitchen® Mayo (made from healthy avocado oil) and Primal Kitchen Organic Spicy Brown Mustard mix with the bright colors and nutrients of cabbage, carrots and green onion—with a few extras to create a zesty and creamy side you’ll want to serve every week. (Personally, we think they go exceptionally well with these tempting Low-Carb Ribs.…)

Servings: 4

Time in the Kitchen: 20 minutes

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Primal Kitchen Mayo
• 2 Tbsp Primal Kitchen Organic Spicy Brown Mustard
• 2 Tbsp full fat organic sour cream
• 1/4 cup dill relish
• 2 tsp organic apple cider vinegar
• 1/4 cup grated carrot
• 1/2 cup chopped green onion
• 2-3 tsp horseradish (depending on how spicy you like it)

• 1 Tbsp celery seed
• Salt/Pepper to taste

You’re almost guaranteed to find a salad on my dinner table every night. It’s the easiest way for me to add vegetables to the meal and round things out, no matter what I am serving. And these 10 recipes, in particular, feel extra healthy to me: They’re heavy on the vegetables, dressed in light vinaigrettes that embrace good fats like olive oil, and are dotted with wholesome things like avocado, nuts, and fresh fruit.

They’re also fast to assemble and pair with everything from chicken and fish to pasta and pizza — and anything in between!

Have you ever noticed there are brownish or greyish patches inside the cups of your bras? They are usually round and concentrated around the area where the nipple makes contact with the fabric. Or perhaps you’ve spotted other types of stains, like white, yellow or green goo, or perhaps even blood, making an appearance inside […]

Here at The Kitchn, we’re fascinated by grocery trends. We have Google alerts for the most obscure of topics, talk to experts about new product releases, pore over the nitty-gritty details within industry reports, and are constantly conducting feet-on-the-ground trend analysis (when we grocery shop, of course).

So when we came across this buzzy essay in Philadelphia Magazine arguing how and why millennials killed mayonnaise, we eagerly clicked to learn more.

What kind of cybernetic enhancements would you get, if you could get any kind of cool mechanical devices attached to your body? I think I’d want a pair of super-fast running legs like the Bionic Woman (but an extra set of giant mechanical arms like Doctor Octopus from Spider-Man would be pretty great, too!). Cooking would be so much faster if I had two extra sets of arms, and cleaning would be a breeze.

I’m still waiting for that technology to make it to the open market, but in the meantime Japan has a portable dishwashing arm that might be the next best thing.

I live in a one-bedroom “garden” apartment, which means that I get to have my own front door, porch, and small strip of flower bed. The only downside? The flower bed is under the porch roof, which means it’s constantly damp and shady, and also an ideal mosquito habitat.

The unexpected loss of Anthony Bourdain earlier this summer has resulted in an obvious uptick in curiosity about the food legend’s life. The public’s hunger for more of the inspiration that only Bourdain’s unique perspective can provide has resulted in a few major announcements. First, is CNN’s decision to continue to air new episodes of Parts Unknown this fall — a final season in which Bourdain travels to Kenya, Texas, Spain, Indonesia, and Manhattan’s Lower East Side. Second is the news of Bourdain: The Oral Biography, edited by his longtime assistant and collaborator Laurie Woolever, coming next fall. Woolever and Bourdain co-wrote his 2016 cookbook Appetites.

It seems like everyone is “going keto” these days, right? If you’re not familiar, the ketogenic diet (keto for short) is a high-fat, moderate-protein, and low-carbohydrate plan. “It’s typically rich in foods like eggs, meats, nuts, butters, cheeses, seeds, oils, and a few low-carb green vegetables. It does not allow fruits, most vegetables, grains, potatoes, sweets, or other carb-rich foods,” says Alyssa Ardolino, RD, nutrition communications coordinator at the International Food Information Council.

According to Ardolino, the goal of the diet is to produce ketone bodies (metabolites of fatty acids) and use them instead of glucose to fuel your cells, which is meant to lead to lower inflammation and, for some, weight loss.

Because the diet is fairly restrictive and excludes most carbs and many fruits, it can be tough to find snacks that are keto-compliant.
