Revised Italian Wedding Soup Recipe

It’s such a simple soup, and it’s no wonder it is a comfort food favorite for many. This is an updated version using an Italian sausage and ground chicken mixture for the miniature meatballs, and substituting spinach for traditional escarole. It’s quick, easy, and packed with flavor... Read more

Nutrition facts labels can be useful if you're tracking your intake of calories or of a particular nutrient. But after 20 years, the FDA is proposing an overhaul of these labels to clarify some areas of confusion -- making it easier to understand the number of servings contained in a package, and adding or dispensing with certain nutrient indicators. The question is, how much attention do you pay to what's on the back or side of a package, and does it change what and how much you eat? Does it matter to you how many calories are derived from fat? If so, I have news for you.

Top Mustard Barbecue Sauce Recipes
Mustard based barbecue sauces find their origins in the Carolinas and are the perfect BBQ sauce for pork whether you are talking whole hog, pork shoulder, or BBQ ribs. These sauces add a savory, tart flavor to barbecue, but are also great on many foods you grill or smoke. Try a mustard sauce next time you are grilling burgers, pork chops, or even chicken. A good mustard sauce gives you a break from the traditional tomato based barbecue sauces.

 


Red Snapper
Red Snapper is a great fish for grilling. The firm texture and nutty flavor make it great for many recipes. This fish will take many flavors from hot and spicy to sweet and succulent. Grill it either in fillets or whole for a great fish meal.

About Today: Lowdown on Lent: Ashes, Fish, and What to Give Up

If you can't see this email, click here

About


Even if they're still stuffed from Fat Tuesday feasting and tired out from Mardi Gras festivities, it's time for many Christians around the world to turn their attention to Lent, a much more solemn (and sober) religious season observed in the weeks leading up to Easter.

For daily religious information and inspiration, follow About.com Religion on Facebook and Twitter.


What Is Ash Wednesday?
Wondering why you keep passing people on the street with a black cross on their foreheads? Today is Ash Wednesday, the first day of the Lenten season for many Christians. The ashes, which are made by burning the palms that were distributed the previous year on Palm Sunday, are blessed and serve as a symbol of humility and a call to repentance.

Why Is Everyone Giving Somthing Up for Lent?
Lent is a time when many Christians prepare for the Easter season and resurrection of Jesus by observing a period of fasting and moderation (although specific requirements can vary based on the denomination). For many, it's also a time of self-sacrifice. You may know people who "give up" things like chocolate, Facebook, or even (gasp!) stop drinking coffee during Lent.

Why Do Catholics Eat Fish on Fridays?
Catholics aren't supposed to eat meat on Fridays during Lent (among these other fasting rules), so it's often a "fish is the dish" dinner in many homes. If you're looking for something new to swap in, we present the ultimate collection of meatless and Lenten season-approved recipes.

So When Is Easter This Year Anyway?
Most people know the Lenten season is 40 days long. So why, you might ask, are there actually 46 days between today and Easter Sunday on April 20? The answer about how Lent's 40 days are really calculated takes us back to the early days of Christianity.
