Pat Benatar knows how to rock. Her feisty tunes have earned her four Grammys and three American Music Awards, and she was the first female artist to be featured on MTV. But the 60-year-old mom of two (Haley, 28, and Hana, 19) isn't stopping yet. She and her husband, Neil Giraldo, are just finishing a small spring concert series before beginning their main tour across the US and Canada on June 7, 2013, all while recording Neil's Christmas album. While the singer's no stranger to the stage, she's just as likely to be in her kitchen. Between shows, Pat chatted with WomansDay.com about her family recipes, her garden in Maui, HI, and her cookbook that's coming out this winter. Photo by Beth Herzaft.

Where did your love of cooking come from?

It came from my husband's love of eating! I didn't cook all that much when I first met him, but he loves food-he's half Sicilian. I decided that I better start

Simple, healthy recipes to help you get started cooking fishWhen it comes to getting a healthy meal on the table quickly and easily, fish is a great option. Cooking fish may seem intimidating at first, but once you get started, you'll see that it's really not that difficult.

Fish is good for you, too - wild-caught fish are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential to the human body. In other words, omega-3 fatty acids cannot be synthesized by the body and should be included as part of a balanced diet.

According to Andy Sharpless, CEO of Oceana and author of The Perfect Protein, not all omega-3 fatty acids are created equal. There are many types out there, but there are three types that most often grab headlines. The first type, alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), is found in plant-based foods like walnuts and processed foods that make omega-3 content claims. ALA, though, is not readily absorbed by the human body. The other two types, without going into too much detail, are more crucial to the human

Gluten-free Date Squares and TeaWhen I finally figured out I had celiac disease in 1996, the gluten-free diet felt like a long awaited miracle cure. Within two weeks the monstrous looking rash that had taken over my face and body were gone, as well as my depression, and what we'll just refer to as "digestive woe." Along with my newfound health, I impressed myself by learning how to bake delicious gluten-free treats and discovering new exotic-sounding gluten-free grains. But it wasn't all unicorns and rainbows. Eating out became like Russian roulette, with confused waitstaff thinking that white flour and wheat weren't related. One mix up and my rash would appear overnight, I'd be hit by flu-like symptoms, and it would take two weeks for me to fully recover. Overall though, after

How do you keep food fresh longer? Air is the enemy of food. In order to keep food fresh as long as possible you want to keep it wrapped tightly in order to keep air out. Depending on the type and where you'll be storing it, an airtight container or wrap will keep food from drying out, getting soggy, developing freezer burn, absorbing odors, or becoming contaminated from raw meat or poultry. Now practically every storage container out there claims to be airtight but I can tell you from years of testing that that's not true. Here's what we've learned.

A lot depends on whether or not air can go in through the material that the container or wrap's made of, as well as whether or not it has a tight-fitting lid. Even if the air seems sucked or vacuumed out, it can still get back in if the material's porous or the cover's loose. In our tests, glass containers with tight lids are always the best at keeping air out. Tops in our latest test: Snapware Total

Many of us find our heart-racing, drool-inducing, oh-my-god-I-can't-wait-to-get-in-the-kitchen inspiration at the farmers' market. Or at the butcher shop. Or at the fish counter. We rarely turn to our pantries for inspiration, and instead save the pantry rummaging for nights when dinner feels like a burden.

But with a can of tomatoes -- or a stack of them -- the pantry can be a place of exploration: an easy way to a burden-free dinner that's just as exciting as a meal following a trip to the market.
