Say hello to the most failproof way we know to get everyone to eat their veggies—and just about anything else you can dip or dunk or douse.

A Mediterranean classic that's healthy as can be although you'd never guess it from the indulgent taste.

Made with the requisite mustard and mayonnaise for classic deviled egg traditionalists. And bacon drippings and Sriracha for the rebels in the rest of us.

The words "orange chicken" used to make us think of gloppy Chinese takeout—until we tried this orange chicken.

Um, 5 minutes hands-on time for a loaf of bread? Please. That's nothing. Nothing short of a miracle.

Rib eye steak. Salt. Pepper. Flame. And this technique. That's all it takes to create one of the most superlative suppers known to man.

No ordinary chicken pot pie, this one seems to have gone to finishing school but without a lot of fuss. Just a couple of simple yet significant aspects done exceptionally well.

Everyone needs a classic, foolproof, go-to turkey gravy recipe. This is it. And all it takes is pan juices or drippings from your turkey, stock, butter, and flour. And a lot less time and effort than you'd imagine.

A slightly tipsy sweet potato filling topped with a crumbly streusel. Thwarting tradition at Thanksgiving never tasted so good.

Pickle juice-brined pork chops. Yes, you read that correctly. And yes, we know what you're thinking. Why didn't we think of brining pork chops in dill pickle juice? It's easy, ingenious, and, natch, delicious.

A beloved American favorite from the 1960's that we just had to bring back.

Your favorite tea turned sideways, making it a creamy dessert with a crackling, shattering caramelized sugar topping.

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.

Simple. Straightforward. Spectacular. Elegant, even. Just some of the things we're hearing about this vegan riff on the perennially popular vodka pasta.

Dramatically amplify the flavor (and the reactions at the table) when you leave the shells on while cooking these shrimp. And then just surrender to the mess while devouring them.

Slightly tart and eminently easy, this tomatillo sauce makes ample so you can stash some in the fridge for later. Cook once, eat twice.
