Need a sign that you should be eating more fish? This is it. This roasted trout with a sweetly Asian-inspired glaze will make you see the light.

This is tasty, healthy, and pretty darn quick. A brilliant mix of spices, tangy yogurt, and brown rice—and don’t forget the red snapper fillets—you’ll be enthralled.

A campfire classic elevated to proper dessert status. The parts you know and love are here, but now they’re covering a lush brown sugar cake. And no mosquitos!

Warming spices in this eggplant, lamb, and tomato soup add layers of flavor and complexity that make it taste like it takes all day—it doesn’t.

A spatchcocked, roasted chicken is a thing of beauty. And if it’s then slathered with lemon and mustard-infused mayonnaise, we just can’t get enough. Winner, winner indeed.

Rich, velvety, and very, very smooth. That’s this vegan no-bake fudge cake that makes magic from a short list of everyday ingredients.

A taco extravaganza that’s one part classic Mexican cooking, two parts slightly unconventional toppings, and all parts surprisingly simple to toss together.

Strawberries, rhubarb, lemon, and sugar are all it takes to fix a batch of the sassiest pink sauce you’ve ever tasted.

Stir-fried lettuce. Not what you were thinking about doing with that head of romaine languishing in the fridge? Think again.

Slow cooked pork shoulder, topped with a pineapple and avocado salsa and then smothered in chipotle mayo. All your tacos dreams come true.
