This easy cobbler is a great way to use up any fresh, in-season blueberries you have but frozen blueberries are also a perfectly fine option. It’s very low in added sugar for a dessert — with most sweetness coming from the antioxidant-rich blueberries — yet it’s just sweet enough, clocking in at just over 200 calories and providing healthy fiber from oats and whole-wheat flour, as well as the blueberries (1,2,3,4).

Active time: 15 minutes | Total time: 3 1/2 hours

Slow-Cooker Blueberry-Ginger Oat Cobbler

Ingredients

• 6 cups (900g) fresh (or frozen and thawed) blueberries
• 4 tbsp packed brown sugar, divided
• 1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
• 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 1 tsp lime zest
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 3/4 tsp salt
• 3/4 cup instant oats
• 1/2 cup (60g) whole-wheat flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter, cold

Directions

In a 5–6-quart slow cooker, stir together the blueberries, 2 tbsp brown sugar, cornstarch, ginger, lime juice, lime zest, vanilla extract, and ½ tsp salt. Cover and cook on high for 1 hour.

While the filling cooks, prepare the topping. In a large bowl, stir together the oats, flour, 2 tbsp brown sugar, baking soda, and 1/4 tsp salt. Cut the butter into small pieces and add to the dry ingredients. Use your fingers to gently pinch and knead until a crumbly dough forms.

After the filling has cooked for 1 hour, scatter the topping evenly over the fruit mixture. Cover and cook on high for an additional 2 1/2 hours, or until the filling is bubbly and thick and the topping is cooked through.

Instant oatmeal packets are a godsend for busy mornings, but have you considered crafting your own instant oatmeal jars? By purchasing oatmeal, dried fruit and nuts in bulk, you can make your own version of instant oatmeal, and save money at the same time. Use small mason jars to portion out your meal, or some bags will also do the trick.

Active time: 5 minutes | Total time: 5 minutes

Cranberry Almond Oatmeal Jars

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (40 grams) uncooked quick oats
• 1/8 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp cinnamon 
• 1 tbsp dried cranberries (or dried fruit of your choice)
• 1 tbsp slivered almonds (or nuts of your choice)
• 1 cup water

Directions

To make the oatmeal jar, layer the ingredients in the following order: oats, salt, cinnamon, cranberries, and almond slivers. Make as many jars as desired and store in a dry area. If you do not have mason jars, oatmeal packets can also be made using zip-lock bags. Label with the date to help track freshness.

To cook the oatmeal with boiling water, bring 1 cup water to a rolling boil. Pour the water into the oatmeal jar and stir. Let the oatmeal stand for 4–5 minutes to soften, then stir and enjoy.

To cook the oatmeal in the microwave, pour the oatmeal into a microwave-safe container large enough to allow bubbling without spilling, then add 1 cup water. Microwave on power level 7 for 2 minutes.

Perhaps the last movie that needed to be Nolanized was Total Recall. The goofiness is inherent to what made that film such a hit with audiences and critics. Turning it into a self-serious meditation on the refugee crisis proved a fatal decision, and viewers noticed immediately. The Total Recall remake didn't do very well at the box office, nor did it appeal to critics and audiences. It remains one of the least remembered big-budget Hollywood movies of the post-Nolan era, where every film had to be dark and grounded. Some, like Gareth Edwards' Godzilla, worked. Others — like Total Recall and Snow White and the Huntsman— not so much.

NEW DELHI, June 3 — At least 21 people, including 18 foreign nationals, were killed in a fire ‌at a hotel in Delhi today, police and broadcaster CNN-News18 said, in one of the worst such incidents in the national capital since 2022. The dead included people from Bangladesh, Nigeria, Mozambique and Liberia, the broadcaster said.

Reuters could not immediately confirm the nationalities of the victims. Several people had jumped out of the burning building in South Delhi’s Malviya Nagar to escape the flames, witnesses said, with residents dragging mattresses from a nearby store to try to break their fall.

“People spread mattresses, and a woman from the third floor jumped on it with a little kid,” witness Sher Khan said.

Television footage showed two people jumping from a higher floor ‌of the building as it was engulfed in flames, with smoke billowing out.

Local people who ⁠helped in the initial rescue said the ⁠fire broke out on the ground and first floors of ⁠the four-storey building, trapping those on higher ⁠floors.

“There is a ⁠mattress shop here... We took the mattresses from there and laid them on the road to help those who were jumping out of the building,” Wasim Raja, a local resident, told news ⁠agency ANI.

Fire may have started in restaurant

The fire broke out a little before 9am (0330 GMT/11am Malaysian time), and eight fire tenders were dispatched to douse the blaze, police said in a statement.

The fire was extinguished around midday, a Reuters witness said.

“Through the coordinated efforts of police, fire services, and other emergency responders, more than 40 persons have been rescued and shifted to ⁠nearby hospitals for medical treatment,” police said.

“It is with profound sorrow that 21 persons have been declared dead in this tragic incident,” it said.

A spokesperson at the ⁠state-run All India Institute of Medical Sciences told Reuters the hospital had received 13 patients, two of ⁠whom were ⁠critical.

“There was reportedly a restaurant operating on the ground floor of the building ... it is most likely that the fire was connected to that restaurant,” local administration official Jitendra Kumar told reporters.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi ‌expressed his condolences for the loss of lives in a post on X. “Authorities are providing all possible assistance to those affected,” he said. — Reuters

Three years and four months after Alejandro Oro and Romina Simondi resigned from their well‑paid jobs as accounting experts in Argentina and moved to Spain to boost their son’s chess career, Faustino Oro has inscribed his name in a very special chapter of chess history. He has earned the grandmaster title — more demanding than a black belt in judo — at 12 years, six months, and 26 days. He is the second‑youngest of all time, surpassed only by the U.S. player of Indian descent Abhimanyu Mishra, who set the record by two months.

Omega-3-rich salmon is the perfect fish for grilling — its naturally high fat content keeps it moist and flavorful over high heat, making it far more forgiving than leaner fish that can dry out quickly on the grill (1). Bold and satisfying, salmon can stand up to big flavors, which is why it pairs so beautifully with this zesty Sriracha aioli. These sliders come together in just 20 minutes and are impressive enough to serve at your next cookout.

Active time: 20 minutes | Total time: 20 minutes

Salmon Sliders with Sriracha Aioli 

Ingredients

• Cooking spray
• 1/3 cup (83g) light mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 tbsp Sriracha pepper sauce
• 1 tsp low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 lb (455g) sockeye salmon fillet, skin and pin bones removed
• 8 slider buns
• 1 cup packed baby arugula

Directions

Prepare a charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill to medium-high heat. Coat the grill rack with cooking spray.

In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, cilantro, Sriracha, and soy sauce. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Cut the salmon into 8 pieces, about 55g each. Grill for 3–5 minutes, turning once, until the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 145°F. Thin tail pieces may be grilled on lightly greased foil and stacked after grilling if needed.

Spread about 1 tsp of the aioli on the cut side of each bottom bun. Top with the salmon and arugula then place the top bun in place. Secure with a pick if desired and serve immediately.
