Have you ever been offered a cheese course after the main meal at a restaurant or dinner party? I love cheese but have never understood the appeal of eating it post-dinner when I am full and satisfied. Sweets, on the other hand? I will always have room for those!. My...

This New $3.99 ALDI Find Is So Good—I’m Stocking up on It All Summer Long

Mac and cheese is always there for me when I don’t know what to cook for dinner. No, not the homemade kind that requires a béchamel sauce and a breadcrumb topping (although, don’t get me wrong, that’s also truly delightful). I’m talking about the kind that comes in a box with bright orange powdered cheese.

The New $0.99 Trader Joe's Find I'm Stocking Up on Every Time I Go

If you’ve ever stepped foot in a Trader Joe’s, you know how easy it is to get distracted by the new products, snacks, cheeses, and other generally exciting-but-decidedly-not-dinner items. I've written about my favorite $2 lunch find, but I also have to share my other favorite weeknight go-to—straight from the refrigerator section. And it's perfect for the grill or the pan.

Grocery store rotisserie chicken is a delicious and affordable way to add protein to your shopping excursion, and there's arguably no better option than Costco's rotisserie chicken (it took the top spot in our ranking of grocery store rotisserie chickens, after all). This pre-cooked, pre-seasoned chicken is hot and ready in the deli, just waiting for you to take it home after your giant haul at the wholesale retailer. If you've been wary of buying a rotisserie chicken because you fear how long it's been sitting in its package, we have good news. According to Costco superfans and authors David and Susan Schwartz, both of whom spoke with Business Insider, each chicken is available to customers for around two hours. After that, employees remove the time-stamped chickens from the shelf, and they're repurposed into other Costco deli offerings.

National Onion Ring day, June 22, is right around the corner. As a college student, I’m a fast food connoisseur. If you’re an onion ring lover like myself, I’m sure you often struggle to decide which chain’s greasy goodness you want to consume. Not to mention that drive-through onion rings are hard to come by. In fact, many fast food restaurants have either never carried or discontinued onion rings from their menus (I’m looking at you, Arby’s). In order to avoid any future beer-battered debacles, here is a comprehensive list of my favorite onion rings and why they are each uniquely delicious.

I love some of the deli salads—especially the various tuna salads—at Whole Foods. They’re fresh, gorgeous, and delicious, but they cost more than $10 per pound, and the nearest Whole Foods is more than 30 minutes away from my house, so they're not a reliable option for me.

Childhood summers in Tennessee were humid but delicious. We gorged ourselves on seasonal produce, knowing full well it would disappear just as quickly as it appeared. My grandfather tended a bit of farmland as a hobby, and successfully raising crops of vegetables was his great joy. Summertime was a time of abundance, and he would return from the farm sweaty, dirty, and loaded down with tomatoes, green beans, corn, cucumbers, and squash.

Use a small, sharp knife to make crosswise cuts into fat on pork chops at 1/2- to 1-inch intervals without slicing into the meat. Pat the chops dry; sprinkle with poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chops to the pan in a single layer; cook, pressing down on the chops often and flipping once, until golden brown and a thermometer inserted into the thickest portion registers 140°F, 4 to 6 minutes per side (adjust heat as needed to prevent overbrowning). Transfer the pork chops to a large rimmed plate and keep warm. (Let rest for 5 minutes; the internal temperature will continue to rise to 145°F.) Discard all but 1 teaspoon of the drippings in the skillet.

Swiss cheese, a burger patty, sweet caramelized onions, and mustard tuck into rye bread before being griddled to perfection for this satisfying sandwich. The onions have a splash of acidity and depth thanks to the Worcestershire and apple cider vinegar, which helps balance the richness in the rest of the sandwich. Adding water as the onions caramelize provides a little steam to the cooking onions, and helps to scrape up the flavorful brown bits from the pan, both of which speed up the caramelizing process. Swiss cheese and rye bread are traditional in a patty melt but feel free to swap in whatever cheese and bread you have on hand for your own variation.

What is more summery than an icy, sweet frozen drink? If the heat wave is getting to you, try whipping up this simple frozen strawberry lemonade. All you need is your choice of lemonade and some frozen strawberries. You can use store-bought lemonade, make your own from scratch, or a powdered version. As for strawberries, frozen ones are the easiest choice. If you'd rather use fresh, add at least two cups of ice until you reach a nice, frozen consistency.
