A list of all the recipes Carol Hays has tested.
Tomato and Peach Panzanella
Tomato and peach panzanella may sound unlikely but it’ll knock your socks off. If you’re not wearing socks this time of year, then it’ll knock your flip-flops off. Guaranteed.
Spaghetti Primavera Pie
Essentially spaghetti casserole with veggies smothered with cheese. Sounds like supper to us.
Maple Sriracha Bacon
Maple Sriracha bacon isn’t just the title of this simple recipe, it’s the ingredient list as well. Which means you probably already have everything you need on hand.
Cream Cheese Pound Cake
Everything you would imagine in a pound cake. Buttery. Indulgent. Moist. Rich. And with a perfectly balanced and ever so slightly puckery lemon glaze.
3 Ingredient Macaroni and Cheese
Mac and cheese honestly doesn’t get any quicker or easier or pantry-friendlier than this 3-ingredient savior that can be tossed together with stuff you already have on hand. Certain to please.
Ham, Cheese, and Potato Casserole
Our latest definition of decadent comfort food. A David Leite original, this recipe melds layers of ham, potatoes, shallots, and gooey cheese in a rich cream sauce.
Easy Roasted Carrots
Four ingredients and one simple technique that will leave everyone asking—maybe even demanding—you for more. A keeper of a side dish.
Junior’s Brownie Swirl Cheesecake
A dark chocolate brownie crust, blobs of brownies baked in the cheesecake, and a swirl of bittersweet chocolate. Comfort food, indeed.
Prosciutto, Pear, and Brie Toasts
Your newest go-to appetizer. (Or, on lazy nights when you feel like indulging, your dinner. Don’t forget the wine.)
