Happy World Vegetarian Day! Here’s a soupy, stewy, smoky chili with stealth veggie goodness galore. Healthful never tasted so darn good.

Moody and a little brooding, this autumnal-ish dish melds earthy spices, sweet apricots, fresh herbs, and lamb to a simply elegant effect.

This tart remakes the famous candy bar with its milk chocolate mousse, chocolate curls, and luscious caramel drizzle. And it’s surprisingly simple to make.

This Mexican carnitas recipe is authentic braised and fried pork that makes for conversation-stopping, fall-apart-tender awesomeness.

There’s a lot to like here. The caramelized sweetness of sweet potatoes and onions. The salty and tangy creaminess of feta. And the knowing that you’re doing something decent for yourself without it tasting like penance.

Whether you have unripe berries, overripe berries, or an abundance of the season’s most fragrant berries, say hello to your sweetly sticky solution.

We’ve clamored for dessert for breakfast many a time, but breakfast for dessert? With this inspired makeover, you betcha.

This lovely recipe may sound more like potpourri than supper. But we assure you, its flavor is just as compelling as its fragrance.

“Little explosions of flavor” is how the author describes these luscious little orbs of yellow, orange, or red goodness. We don’t disagree. Neither will you.

This roasted pork is so tender, so rich with cumin, garlic, cilantro, and smoked paprika, it’s hard not to shout, “Come to mamacita.”
