The #1 Fruit You Shouldn’t Leave the Store Without, According to a Dietitian: It's America's favorite fruit for a reason. I can't tell you how many times I've heard people say that bananas are a terrible food. They're either "so high in carbs" or "bad for weight loss" or "loaded with sugar" or something along those lines. Bananas may not have the antioxidant power of blueberries or the appeal of apples but from a health perspective, they're not too shabby.

Recipe for The Day

Irish Coddle

Like many traditional dishes, the recipe for Irish coddle (also known as Dublin coddle) varies widely from family to family. Born in 1700s inner-city Dublin tenements, it’s a grab-what-you-have kind of stew that simmers low and slow to peak deliciousness. The building blocks of the dish--bacon, sausage, onions, potatoes and plenty of parsley and black pepper--add up to more than the sum of their parts, creating a dark, flavorful broth and an incredibly warm bowl of nourishment. Serving with slices of soda bread is a must and adding a splash of Ireland’s favorite beer, while optional, is very highly recommended!
