Quick
Coconut-Turmeric Relish
The sweet, spicy, and tart flavors in this coconut-turmeric relish make it a perfect match with cauliflower.
Kimchi-Fried Grains
Make a batch of grains on Sunday and you're within striking distance of a winning dinner on any weeknight (and lunch al desko for days). Case in point: This easy stir-fry, which, when combined with the trusty #putaneggonit, is irresistible. We use kimchi juice to finish; it keeps the grains moist and gives the dish a kick.
Cauliflower Steaks With Coconut-Turmeric Relish
Thick-cut planks of roasted cauliflower make for a stunning vegetarian entrée, especially when dressed with a sweet-and-spicy, chutney-like relish.
Cauliflower Rice
Don't overcrowd the food processor with florets or you might end up with cauliflower "rice" that's a mix of too-big pieces and mush. Work in batches and keep the pulses short.
Roasted Cauliflower with Coconut-Turmeric Relish
The key to developing crispy browned surfaces on roasted cauliflower is baking in a superhot oven on the lowest rack so the baking sheet is close to the heat radiating off the bottom of the oven.
Little Gem Wedge Salad with Tahini Ranch
Philosophical question: Is it still a wedge if it isn't smothered in blue cheese and bacon? It's debatable, but we do know that this is a healthyish wedge salad we'd happily eat every day. It's got the rich part—a creamy tahini dressing that's so thick it anchors the greens. It's got the crunchy stuff—seeds and coarse salt. And it's got freshness—actual lettuce and herbs. Iceberg who?
Cynar Spritz
Sweet, citrusy grapefruit pairs well with herbaceous Cynar, and adding dry Prosecco provides balance.
Cast-Iron Pizza with Fennel and Sausage
Browning sausage in the same skillet used to bake this pizza not only preheats the pan (the key to a crisp crust), it also infuses that crust with rich, porky flavor.
Pasta with Garlic, Anchovies, and Parmesan
Combine a few pantry staples to make this simple but luxurious anytime pasta.
Pimm's Spritz
The combination of Pimm’s and Cel-Ray is pleasantly herbal- and celery-forward.
Ginger Spritz
This light, refreshing drink will be your new favorite to serve at brunch or picnics.
Spicy Lamb Meatballs with Raisin Pesto
Loving meatballs has never been this rewarding. They're gilded with lots of strong spices and set in a cooling swoosh of yogurt and anointed with the sweet brightness of a mint pesto. Sound fancy? Not really. We use ground lamb, which is naturally fatty and can be baked without sacrificing juiciness or a charred crust.
Shaved Fennel Salad
This is an antidote to every side salad that ever was. Instead of meh greens, it's got shavings of fennel that bend and twist but keep their refreshing crunch. It's got a lean dressing and nuggets of deeply toasted croutons, meaty walnuts, and shards of Parmesan. It has acidity and zing—lemon juice, the zest, vinegar, mint, and red pepper flakes—just in case you were worried about palate fatigue. This is what salad looks like in 2018.
Campari Spritz
Dry rosé wine and lemon soda complement the citrusy flavor of bittersweet Campari, making for a beautifully vibrant summer cocktail.
Garlic Broth
Sick days (real ones, at least) are unpredictable, so having a back-pocket broth that doesn’t require recipe planning should be part of your medicine cabinet.
Freeform Chicken Meatballs
Shaping meatballs into perfect spheres is too fussy for a weeknight meal. Instead, drop dollops of spiced ground chicken onto a sheet pan and roast with carrots until both are golden brown.
Baked Feta and Greens With Lemony Yogurt
Warm feta, crispy chickpeas, and wilted hearty greens become a fork-and-knife entrée in about 30 minutes.
Hot Honey Pork Chops
The spicy garlic-honey glaze for the pan-seared pork chops also forms the base of the sauce for the warm escarole-and–white bean salad in this easy one-pan dinner.
Chicken Paillards with Schmaltz Bread Salad
Pounding a skinless, boneless chicken breast to even thickness helps it cook it quickly and evenly. For extra flavor, cook it in rendered chicken fat, then use that same fat to toast croutons for a crispy, delicious topping.
Chicken Teriyaki
Served with a bright, refreshing radish salad, these salty, sweet, and shatteringly crisp glazed thighs will satisfy all your classic chicken teriyaki cravings.
