Bread salad is a popular Summer dish, but that doesn't mean it can't be modified for Fall. Instead of the classic tomatoes and basil, this recipe calls for a more seasonal
butternut squash and sage. To cut down kitchen prep, bake the butternut squash and the bread ahead of time.

If you've got leftover
shrimp in your fridge, it's the perfect start of a weeknight meal. The quick-cooking shellfish, when combined with
couscous and field greens, is a healthy, delicious meal.
It takes a minimal amount of time to make, so you can even prepare extra shrimp and field greens to put in a salad for the next day's lunch.

Natural and organic supermarket
Whole Foods really wants to be there for you during tough times. In fact, the retailer wants to give you a deal so badly that it's posted a printable online

Although
my birthday starts at 9 p.m. on a Saturday, I want to offer my friends snacks to nibble on throughout the night. Since the kitchen at

Meals For 4 Under $15.

Sorry to spread the bad news, but we have yet another recall to deal with. Whole Foods voluntarily recalled more than
1.2 million pounds of ground beef that has come from Coleman Natural Beef's Nebraska Beef processing plant. It pains me to say it but E.

For those of you who've raved about the
Whole Foods private-label 365 brand, I've got good news for you: There are more of these brands coming your way.
Fellow grocery giant
Safeway has
plans to go national with two of its house brands, O Organics and health-conscious line Eating Right. So far, both lines have limited market, but will expand nationally this Fall.

Earlier this week the
New York Times reported that
Whole Foods is in
the midst of a store makeover. With the economic crisis and the increasing price of food, the expensive grocer is attempting to rebrand itself as a value store along the lines of Costco and Trader Joe's.
I've always found the prices at Whole Foods to be high and stopped shopping there months ago.
