All three of these fruits and veggies contain unique anti-inflammatory compounds that may help stave off diseases associated with chronic inflammation, including cancer, heart disease, arthritis and diabetes. Using packaged steamed beets is a great shortcut here. If you have cooked beets on hand, use those! The cherries help sweeten the smoothie and add a fruity flavor. If you opt for tart cherries, you can balance the tanginess with a small drizzle of honey or maple syrup.View Recipe

11of 17Diner-Style Scrambled EggsJennifer CauseyThese are the eggs you probably grew up eating: quick, easy to make, homey and comforting. A little butter adds richness. We use just a tiny amount of salt here, because it’s easy to oversalt eggs. Pull them from the heat the instant they’re done so they don’t turn tough and rubbery. And as with all egg dishes, dig in right away—they’re not getting any better as they cool off.View Recipe
