News Ree Drummond Says She Eats THIS Food Every Day To be honest, we love her even more now. By Jaime Milan Jaime Milan Instagram Jaime Milan completed her undergraduate degree in journalism and English literature at The University of Alabama at Birmingham. After graduation, Jaime worked in local news and as a marketing manager for a national coffee and tea company.

EatingWell's Editorial Guidelines Published on August 5, 2019 Share Tweet Pin Email We love that Ree Drummond (AKA the Pioneer Woman) keeps it real-from her easy kitchen tips to her line of affordable cookware at Walmart, she seems like she could be our BFF. The Pioneer Woman recently sat down with TODAYfor an interview, and they asked her about the one food she couldn't live without. And, honestly, her answer makes us love her even more (if that's even possible). "One thing I eat everyday would have to be cheese," Drummond told TODAY. "Cheese of any kind. I will take it any way I can get it. I love melted Swiss. I love cubes of white Cheddar. I love goat cheese, feta cheese on a salad. The list goes on. I never met a cheese I didn't like." 5 Reasons Cheese Is Actually Good for Your Health Drummond has shared lots of cheesy recipes on her blog-from Cheeseburger Totchos (read: Tater Tot nachos) to Crispy Grilled Cheese-and while they sound delicious, they're not exactly healthy. (Sorry, Ree!) But, just like Drummond, we *love* anything with cheese, so we're sharing five of our best cheese recipes-so you can get your daily dose of the good stuff. Baked Mac and Cheese We kept all of the comfort in this meal, but added some cottage cheese, whole-wheat pasta and spinach for a healthier take. Don't worry, we kept the extra-sharp Cheddar and buttery breadcrumb topping.

Serve these cheesy mushrooms alongside grilled fish, chicken or tofu for a super-satisfying main.
