If you're going to splurge on brownies, you may as well, you know, SPLURGE on brownies. But not in terms of effort or expense. Just taste. These brownies handle it splendidly.

Using bacon drippings in place of butter makes these can't-stop-at-just-one cookies both frugal and indulgent at the same time. And let's not overlook their salty, smoky, sweetly lovely taste.

For this dip, green olives are stirred into an eggless 'mayonnaise' made with milk, oil, anchovies, garlic, and white pepper. A tasty Portuguese olive dip.

Sweet, rich, buttery, and oh so charming, these homemade waffle cones take very little time and far less effort than you'd ever expect. So worth it.

Pantry ingredients and barely any effort yield you something that's sweetly tangy and spicy that you'll want to slather on ribs, wings, pulled pork, smoked or grilled chicken, burgers...

Admit it, you’ve probably been eating the same tired, jarred sandwich pickles for as long as you’ve been eating sandwiches. No more.
