The Sacred Heart Soup Diet is Not So Sacred
Review There are plenty of misconceptions surrounding The Sacred Heart Soup Diet. For one thing, there’s nothing new about it; it has existed for several years under numerous names and resembles other types of diets. And, its origin is mysterious and dubious at best.

Let’s take a look.

A chicken is 75% water
The Surprising Truth: Why Understanding Chicken is 75% Water Matters for Cooking and Nutrition You grab a package of chicken from the store. It looks plump and ready for dinner. But did you know that chicken is 75% water? This simple fact changes everything about how you cook it. Most folks think chicken is mostly protein. They focus on the breast meat.

The Great Cheese Takeover:
This article is biased—and I’m fine with that. I do not like cheese. Not in casseroles, not on sandwiches, and not melted over anything pretending to be healthy. I even order my pizza without it, which most people consider a culinary crime. I also don’t love cooking, even though I’m good at it. For me, it’s not joy—it’s pressure. The kitchen feels like a performance space where precision meets anxiety. My mother, a chef-level cook, thrived there; I definitely don’t. About twice a year, though, I feel a strange urge to create something. That’s why I follow a handful of cooks on Facebook. Sadly, unless they’re baking sweets—which don’t tempt me at all—the excitement dies the moment cheese appears. It smothers the color, the texture, the intention.

’Tis the Season for Apple Stack Cake in Appalachia
Apple Stack Cake holds a special place in Appalachian food traditions. Often served during Thanksgiving and Christmas, this layered dessert reflects the ingenuity and resourcefulness of mountain cooks. Unlike typical cakes, Apple Stack Cake is made from several thin layers of cake stacked with a spiced apple filling. The layers are firm, more like a cookie than a soft sponge, and the filling made from apples, sugar, and warming spices softens the cake over time.

Healthy Coca Cake
Some of the best desserts start with a healthy twist. I’ve always loved the flavor of chocolate, but I wanted to find a way to enjoy it without the heaviness and sugar crash that comes with traditional cakes. That’s how I began creating my very own Healthy Cocoa Cake — a naturally sweet, nutrient-rich version of a classic comfort dessert.
