Cooking Light was an American monthly food and lifestyle magazine founded in 1987 and active until December 2018. It was owned by Meredith Corporation.[2][3] Each month, the magazine included approximately 100 original recipes as well as editorial content covering food trends, fitness tips, and other culinary and health-related news.

In September 2018, Meredith Corporation announced that Cooking Light would be combined with EatingWell and that the last print issue would be published in December 2018.[4] After merging with EatingWell, the new publication launched with a January/February 2019 issue and would be published 10 times per year.[4]
