Quick
Jammy Eggs and Feta Flatbreads with Herbs
Because older eggs are easier to peel, this is one of those times when grocery store eggs outperform the ones from the farmers’ market.
Fried Egg Tacos with Chile Jam
This quick taco is simple, but full of flavor and texture. Chile paste brings a hint of spice, creamy yogurt brings a little tang, and charred tortillas bring a subtle crunch.
Breakfast Salad with Smoked Trout and Quinoa
Our perfect quinoa cooking method is to boil it in salted water until tender, then drain and return to the pot. Let steam, covered, for a few minutes and fluff.
Baked Eggs with Coconut Milk and Cilantro
Sure, you could use heavy cream instead of coconut milk, but then it wouldn’t be as healthyish.
Apple Cider and Rum Punch
Hard ciders can range from bone-dry to rather sweet, so take a sip and adjust the simple syrup if needed.
Red Sauce for Pizza
The only trick to this uncooked sauce is finding good canned tomatoes: If you can’t find Jersey Fresh, look for ones from California, New Jersey, or Italy—the only ingredients should be tomatoes and salt.
Kale-Dusted Pecorino Popcorn
Given that this popcorn is green and has the word "kale" in the title, it has proved to be shockingly popular among the preschooler set (to whom I'd bring it for class snacks when it was our turn) as well as adults.
Radicchio with Tahini and Sesame Seeds
This tahini dressing recipe goes especially well with bitter greens but can also be paired with sweeter lettuces such as Little Gem or romaine.
Iceberg Salad with Italian Dressing
If this brings back memories of the “house salad” from that Italian-American restaurant you grew up eating at, then we consider our jobs done.
Grain Salad With Olives and Whole-Lemon Vinaigrette
Look for Castelvetrano olives for this salad recipe; their buttery flesh and mild flavor will convert the most olive-averse.
Aperol-Kombucha Cocktail
Think of this cocktail recipe as a more boozy, more delicious, and just as pretty Aperol spritz.
Marinated Anchovies with Bread and Butter
For a simple, just-the-right-amount-of-salty appetizer, doctor up a tin of anchovies. The acid, heat, and olive oil mellow the anchovies’ flavor, and serving them with a seedy loaf of bread and butter rounds the recipe.
Easy Chicken Tortilla Soup
This weeknight-friendly soup inspired by the Mexican classic, sopa de tortilla, is enriched by the flavor of smoky chipotles, brightened by fresh lime, and ready in just 22 minutes or less.
Herb and Garlic Baked Camembert
Baked Brie and Camembert, rescued from the ordinary, are even better with an herby garlicky mess slathered over them before hitting the oven.
The Witching Hour
Burning sage, a common practice for ritual cleansing, is also a simple way to coax out the herb's essential oil, which gives this gin and pear juice cocktail a pleasantly smoky, herbaceous finish.
Crunchy Maple Mesquite Walnuts
On family travels, hikes, or days when you’re on the go, recipes like this always make for happy and satiated people, especially kids. This delicious snack is one of the best garnishes for any kind of salad or roasted vegetables.
Salted Brown Butter Cookies
Coarse-flake sea salt meets sweet, buttery, crowd-pleasing cookies.
Spicy Horseradish Sauce
Use this sauce as a dip for hush puppies, toss with cabbage for a quick slaw, or use it as a sandwich spread.
Amy's Gluten-Free Mix
Millet flour and rice flour are bolstered by tapioca starch, cornstarch, potato starch, and guar gum in this gluten-free all-purpose flour substitute.
Lemon–Olive Oil Dressing
This simple dressing is wonderful as is, especially on a simple green salad, but it also makes a fantastic starting point for more elaborate dressings.
