Lentil Mushroom Shepherd’s Pie is classic comfort food with a healthy vegan twist. Packed with a flavorful lentil-mushroom filling hidden under a layer of creamy pureed potatoes, it’s rich, cozy and satisfying, even for meat-eaters.
A simple deviled egg turns into a Halloween Spider Egg with the proper edible embellishment! Bring these to the office or the party, and give people a creepy shiver.
Monster Marshmallows for Halloween: Marshmallows on a stick become Halloween monster heads with a little icing or chocolate and some sprinkles — easy to do and they make a big impression!
Chicken, Tomato and Cucumber Salad: This is a winner, winner chicken dinner that the whole family will like. It’s lightly dressed, refreshing, easy, fast, healthy and veggie-centric. That hits all the marks for a perfect all-year recipe!
APPLE CRISP BREAKFAST BOWL: This has all the best flavors of your favorite dessert — cinnamon-scented caramelized apples, maple syrup, crunchy granola or nuts. Getting out of bed is suddenly worthwhile.
Hatch Pepper Salsa (or Hatch Pico de Gallo) is a chunky, fresh taste of summer with tomatoes, onion, Hatch chiles, cilantro and lime, ready for tacos, grilled fish or tortilla chips!
Hatch Chile, Grape and Grilled Onion Salsa is sweet from the grapes, deeply flavored from fresh Hatch chiles and smoky from the grilled onions. This salsa goes well with any roasted meats or poultry, as a dip for tortilla chips or crackers, or as a plate pepper-upper.
Rich Chocolate Shortbread Cookies have a secret — olive oil along with the butter! — and a super-satisfying crunch from coarse sugar on top. This is the grown-up cookie you want.
The Best Rhubarb Crumble is the most perfect way to eat rhubarb, with a tangy-sweet fruit filling topped by a hearty, chewy streusel. Top it with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if you must; I like it just like this!
Lemon Filling is a sweet, tangy, zesty spread for toast, cookies, cake or just to eat with a spoon! Use it as cake, cupcake or donut filling. Stir some into whipped cream as a dip for strawberries, or to frost a cake.
French Onion Open Faced Sandwich has all the flavor and umami of the traditional soup, but in sandwich form. This is the sandwich that will convince you, if you still need convincing, that sandwiches can be dinner.
Best Roast Vegetable Medley of Your Life roasts your favorite vegetables to perfect sweetness and seasons with Parmesan, pinenuts and lemon zest for a flavor explosion. If ever a plate of roasted vegetables will make you forget the meat, it is this one. Roasting sweetens and concentrates the flavors, and the Parmesan and pine nuts add salt and crunch, while the lemon zest adds zing.
Lemony Baby Bok Choy, Apple and Miso Salad is a light, bright, sweet, tangy and crunchy salad or slaw with Asian inflections from miso and black sesame seeds. The apple adds welcome sweetness and more crunch.
