A stash of chili in the freezer is a simple trick that will rock your weeknight supper world. Imagine chili dogs as everyday indulgence!

These lotus root chips are vaguely nutty, slightly sweet, and impossible to stop nibbling. An excellent and unexpected party trick for all occasions.

Like Nashville Hot Chicken except that it's baked rather than fried, this spicy roast chicken is doused with cayenne for a nice, mild, warm burn that you're gonna love.

Slightly sweet, subtly complex, and insanely easy homemade beer nuts. Unlike anything you've ever experienced. Beer sipped on the side not optional.

Easy to make, these chicharrón chocolate chip cookies turn out soft, chewy, ever so slightly smoky and oh so intriguing.

This splurge of a chili recipe is made with ultra tender braised beef and is easy to make on the stovetop or in the slow cooker.

An impressive (and blissfully last-minute!) nosh with an incredibly satisfying salty sweet thing happening. And spectacularly simple to make. Decorate as much or as little as you like.
