Let me introduce you to CADA, your newest breakfast obsession. CADA stands for coconut, apples, dates, and almonds, and it’s a fresh and healthy take on breakfast cereal. The ingredients are roughly chopped and tossed together with a little lemon juice, giving it a taste and texture similar to granola or muesli, but without the grains — making it both grain-free and Paleo-friendly.

You can enjoy CADA cereal-style with milk, or use it as a topping for yogurt or cottage cheese. It’s also surprisingly satisfying sprinkled onto toast. Here’s how to make this no-cook, grain-free cereal that you’ll be eating all week.

Kitchn’s Delicious Links column highlights recipes we’re excited about from the bloggers we love. Follow along every weekday as we post our favorites.

As far as matches made in ingredient heaven go, spinach and artichoke rank pretty high up on the list, maybe even higher than chocolate and peanut butter (if you ask a savory-minded crowd).

I’ll put it to you this way: If an appetizer menu has spinach and artichoke anything on it, you can bet your bottom dollar that I’m going to order it. The brininess from the artichokes; the HEALTH from the spinach; plus the creaminess from the cheese, mayo, and other unmentionables, make spinach artichoke dip the MVP of all dips.

When it comes to summer entertaining, we’re all about recipes that we can make ahead of time, and that goes for drinks too. Yes, beer and wine are low-effort beverages, but a signature cocktail takes even the smallest backyard dinner party to a new level.

That’s why we love a good make-ahead pitcher cocktail. Whether it’s a seasonal blend of strawberries and basil or a classic negroni, all you have to do once guests arrive is pull a pitcher from the fridge and add any club soda or sparkling wine and give it all a stir.

One of the most common injuries is a rotator cuff injury. The statistic, according to the Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, states that in 2006, 7.5 million people made a visit to their doctor for shoulder problems. Why? We aren’t all athletes subjected to repetitive motion or weightlifting. We surely aren’t all gardening nor doing laborious work.

Does it sometimes feel as though everyone has their preferred method of scrambling eggs — except for you? I often feel that way, and start second-guessing my technique every time I start melting the butter in the skillet (or is it olive oil? And should this be cast iron?)

Scrambled eggs fall into a unique category of home-cooked meals that taste so luxurious but require very few ingredients and even less time. Like a lot of great dishes, there’s no one “right” way to make them — it’s all about figuring out what works best for you. To help you find your own go-to technique, I talked to 10 pro home cooks about their secret for the very best scrambled eggs. Try a few (or try them all) until you’ve discovered perfection.

While August is still most definitely summer, it’s a month of change for some, with it also being back-to-school time depending on where you live.
