Olive Garden is offering a ‘buy one, take one’ offer that will get you one hot, ready-to-eat meal and one packed meal that you can save for later. This offer is only available for curb-side pick-up. While restaurants are operating on takeout and delivery-only policies, many chains are giving out promotions that help customers out

Casseroles — or as some of you may call them, hot dishes — are the heartbeat of the American weeknight meal, the powerhouse of the holiday potluck. If you’re like us, the very word conjures visions of grandma pulling out her red-and-white-checked cookbook and dumping meats, veggies, cheese and the ubiquitous can of soup into

You may have seen the advertisements bouncing around social media. “Wellness!! Vital Silver!!! Simple!!! Go on the offense this year against viruses including the Coronavirus – it’s simple!” “Structured Silver allows a silver particle-cluster of silver to kill multiple bacteria, viruses, and yeast/candida pathogens throughout the body until it is safely excreted.” Those aren’t hypothetical

There’s change afoot in the world of fast food. More consumers now report that when dining out, the quality of the food is more important than convenience, according to a 2019 Consumer Reports poll. And a host of new fast-casual restaurants—from Sweetgreen to Cava to Chop’t—are catering to quality. If there aren’t any in your

There are some meals that just make you feel all warm and cozy inside, and we think that pie definitely fits that description. Especially given these uneasy times, we can all use a little extra comforting and coziness, yeah? Whether your pie is made with buttery pie crust or topped with biscuits or puff pastry,

I had just turned 56 in February 2018 and started saying “almost 60” when people asked me my age. My mirror in the bathroom was not kind to me but I’d gotten used to the acceptable reflection of the man I’d been for more than 30 years. My traveling salesman-style job kept me in planes

Sometimes, nothing quite hits the spot like a steamy bowl of noodles—and ramen is no longer the only trendy option. These days, everyone seems to be slurping down pho (pronounced “fuh”) instead. Just how nutritious the recently-buzzy dish is (and how many calories pho contains), though, is still a little unclear. “Pho originated hundreds of

My name is Liz Delaney (@lizingoodtaste), and I am a 25-year-old graphic designer from Foxboro, Massachusetts. I wanted to lose weight for a milestone event in my friend’s life, so I went low-carb and took up CrossFit—and I successfully lost 60 pounds. My weight used to be like a dark shadow over my life. My

The Buff Dudes brothers Brandon and Hudson White frequently tackle new diet and workout challenges on their YouTube channel. Recently they took on flexible dieting, also called “If It Fits Your Macros” for one month and shared their experiences in a new video.

Between people putting ghee in their coffee and swapping it in for butter in cooking, it’s safeto say ghee is the new coconut oil. Maybe it’s thanks to the ongoing keto craze, which encourages adding jumbo-sized dollops and heavy pours of fat to your meals—or the fact that the popular Whole30 program deems ghee a-okay,

Easter is in mere weeks, and we’re already dusting off our Easter decor (and purchasing a few new items), planning our Easter spread, and purchasing all the essentials to curate the perfect Easter egg basket for the kids — and that includes Easter treats and candies. Whether you’re planning an Easter egg hunt or you’re

Social media is land-mined with reports that taking vitamin C tablets may help you prevent COVID-19. Like claims that you can make $83,000 in one month sitting in front of your computer, the vitamin C stuff is falsified. In fact, there is no scientific evidence that any supplement—vitamin C, vitamin D, prebiotics, or probiotics—can help

When you first embark on a low-carbohydrate diet, it feels like freaking EVERYTHING has carbs in it, which leads to a lot of Regina George-like questions. (As you probably know by now, butter is not a carb.) Though there are plenty of low-carb foods out there, filling your plate with high-protein, low-carb foods, in particular,

Taco Bell is known for releasing some pretty wild items, like a Buffalo Chicken Nacho Fries Burrito. But the company’s newest innovation, called “Veggie Mode,” helps you order vegetarian food more easily. Once activated on the restaurant’s self-service kiosk, you’ll see only American Vegetarian Association-certified menu items. So what’s that? Basically, this designation indicates that

BBs, Mother’s Day isn’t too far off. And this year, your mom deserves a treat because A) she birthed you, B) she probably sacrificed a lot for you (that last slice of pizza probs still haunts her) and C) She’s your mom! Obvi, you could get her a cute gift (we have a ton of

We do love a good pie here at HELLO!, so we’re beyond thrilled as this week is British Pie Week, celebrating delicious pies in all their forms from 2-8 March. The great thing about the humble pie is you can be so creative with your fillings. We love the sound of this chicken and ham

Panda Express, an American-Chinese fast food restaurant chain with locations across the U.S. and around the world, has vowed to improve the nutrition of their food. This effort, dubbed the “Panda Promise” (which may or may not be the subtitle of the next Kung Fu Panda movie), aims to achieve several broad goals. To help

What is it like living la vida Gaga? Fans know Lady Gaga has a lot on her plate, acting, singing, and much more. What they may not know is she also has a lot of healthy foods on her literal plate for breakfast, lunch, and dinner to fuel her busy life. The “Shallow” singer’s personal

Plant-based meat has officially infiltrated pretty much every fast food restaurant in the game. Burger King has the Impossible Whopper, White Castle has Impossible Sliders, Dunkin’ has the Beyond Sausage Sandwich, and, now, even KFC (a fast food chain that’s literally all about chicken) has hopped on the bandwagon. Recently, KFC started testing out plant-based

One of our favorite things about Aldi is that shopping there is *never* boring. That’s because they release new limited-time-only products every month, meaning that when you go to pick up your groceries, chances are you’ll find something exciting and new to add to your cart along with staples like eggs and hummus. Last month,
