A low sugar, all-natural jam that takes only minutes to prepare? Yes, there is such a thing! All you need is fresh fruit, lemon juice, chia seeds, and honey and you can have a batch of homemade jam that is not only quick but quite low in sugar too.
A refrigerator’s sole purpose is to keep things cold. Simple, right? But if you’ve ever dug through your crisper drawers to find your carrots have turned into frozen sticks, then you know the pains of having a refrigerator that’s set to the wrong temperature. And one that’s too warm can have adverse effects if your food spoils quickly.
Do you know the temperature your fridge should be set at? Here’s everything you need to know about keeping your fridge cool (but not too cool).

Used to be that people were scared of eating eggs because of the cholesterol in the egg yolks.

Keeping the kitchen (and me) healthy and happy means cleaning out the fridge fairly often and pitching things that don’t belong anymore. While I generally experience a sense of satisfaction with the whole process, it also reminds me that I need to try to be less wasteful.
With this in mind, did you know that there are many things that can have second lives, even after they look like they should be thrown away? Here are 10 foods that can easily be saved from the compost and repurposed into new uses that’ll make you (and your wallet) glad you didn’t throw them away.
