Ingredients
3 large portobello mushroom caps, stems and gills removed
1 tbsp butter (for roasting)
4 oz ground beef (preferably 85/15)
¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained)

3 large eggs
¼ tsp sea salt
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp garlic powder
Garnish:
½ cup fresh arugula, plus extra for garnish
1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil (for finishing)

Preparation
Preheat the oven: to 375°F (190°C). Gently wipe the mushroom caps clean with a damp cloth and remove the gills with a spoon to make more space for filling.
Prepare the Mushrooms: Brush the mushroom caps lightly with melted butter and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, gill side up. Optional: To keep portobello mushrooms juicy but prevent them from getting soggy, pre-bake them empty for 5–7 minutes before filling. Gently dab any released moisture from inside the caps with a paper towel.
Cook the ground beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until browned and fully cooked. Chop ¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes into small pieces and stir them into the cooked beef along with the crumbled feta cheese. Mix just until combined and warmed through. Spoon the beef, tomato, and cheese filling into each mushroom cap, pressing it gently to create a shallow well in the center. Carefully crack an egg into each well, on top of the filling. Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until egg whites are set but yolks are still slightly soft.
Serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and drizzle with olive oil. Serve immediately with extra arugula on the side.
We intuitively know that fitter, stronger people live longer than those that are sick and weak. In this article, Dr. Eades reviews a University of Michigan study that provides evidence to support this intuition. The 2022 study simplified strength down to a single measure, grip strength, then compared that to biomarkers associated with aging.
The researchers were able to make a connection between grip strength and DNA methylation, which news headlines latched onto, but the evidence is still only corollary, not causal. So while the study does support the notion that staying stronger will help you live longer, don’t get hung up trying to squeeze cider from apples with your bare hands.
