A satiating, simple meal that is Italian food at its best--full of robust flavors and easy prep. Serve as a side or on its own with a slice of homemade bread.

Iceberg lettuce gets a serious upgrade with this creamy vinaigrette, a handful of herbs and red wine vinegar. Not only iceberg lettuce, you'll slather it on everything.

Homemade bread that's healthy but doesn't taste it. Light, airy, and appealing even to kids, this is the recipe you've been seeking.

An easy toss-it-in-the-oven-and-forget-about-it sorta dish that’s still gonna make everyone ooh and aah at the dinner table for its tender, wine-imbued spectacularness.

Those days when meal planning goes south and weeknight weariness looms, simple salvation can be found in this easy skillet lasagna made with store-bought ravioli.

An updated Italian classic made with all the usual suspects along with an unexpected drizzle of pesto that turns a frugal veggie-bin catch-all into something truly astounding.

The perfect excuse to justify the return of iceberg lettuce to your life.

A simple trick that accentuates the sweetness inherent in late-summer stone fruit. And then amplifies it even more with honey and pepper.

Tarragon chicken. A French classic for a reason. And no one but you needs to know just how easily it comes together.

Bet you already have everything you need for these brownies in your house. Which is a very good thing. (Also sorta a very dangerous thing.)

And you thought those perfect swirls of cinnamon raisin awesomeness were something you could only get in store-bought loaf. This recipe dispels that myth.

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

A simple yet surprisingly flavorful pork recipe that's eminently doable on a weeknight, not too spicy for the kids, and with enough oomph for the adults. Did we mention there's just one pan to clean?

A nutty, oh-so-slightly-sweet, artisan-style loaf of homemade bread that's a lovely Norwegian-inspired amalgam of whole-wheat, barley, oat, and rye. Amazing.

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

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.

So crazily satisfying you may just find yourself making Thanksgiving dinner more than once a year.

"This was beyond the best carrot cake I have ever had." That's what we're hearing about this cake, which ingeniously relies on puréed, rather than grated, carrots.

What makes this apple cake so incredibly moist that it stands out from the rest? Lots of things, including a lovely swirl of cream poured on top of the batter and baked right in.
