Imagine a decadent and rich truffle center surrounded by a peanut butter cookie then add just a hint of salt. The filling is lightly spiced with allspice, which works really well with the peanut cookie. We used store-bought peanut butter cookie dough, but you can just as easily use your favorite homemade cookie dough. I’m particularly interested in making a Snickerdoodle version with our homemade snickerdoodles cookie dough. This recipe was originally developed and shared with Pillsbury....

We celebrated Cinco de Mayo a little early this year with a mango fiesta. You should too because mangoes are on sale (like, $1 something) at Whole Foods until the end of April. I brought home muchos mangoes last weekend and mixed up this sweet & spicy salsa. Then (from the same salsa recipe), I made black bean tacos and an avocado-mango salad. And, of course, no fiesta is complete without tequila....

This creamy chicken lasagna recipe has everything: a luxuriously cheesy sauce, chicken sausage, spinach and no-boil noodles to makes things extra simple. It’s no secret that we love lasagna and this chicken lasagna has quickly risen to one of our favorites. How to Make Lasagna with Chicken and Spinach The sauce is a mixture of butter, milk and cheddar cheese. Think about the creamy sauce from Macaroni and Cheese, but instead of stirring it into pasta, we layer it between sheets of lasagna noodles, ricotta cheese, chicken sausage and spinach....

This broccoli salad recipe started with a faint memory of something my Mom would make when I was a child: raw broccoli, a mayo-based dressing, and bacon. I wasn’t the biggest fan of vegetables back then, but I remember loving her broccoli salad. For a slaw-style salad, try our easy broccoli slaw. Key Ingredients Broccoli: You’ll use fresh raw broccoli for this salad (although, you can always swap that for roasted broccoli if you want to)....

I am head over heels for this easy bean chili! It’s bursting with flavor, and I love how perfectly the beans turn out. You’ll start with dried beans, but no soaking is required! Just toss dried beans in a pot with all the delicious veggies and spices and let them work their magic. I love this with the dried beans, but tips for using canned are included below, or you can take a look at this vegetarian chili with canned black beans and quinoa....

Forget scooping individual cookies! These cookie bars are my go-to when I need a fast, simple dessert. The batter comes together quickly and easily, and instead of fussing with baking sheets, you press it into a pan. It’s as easy as dumping, spreading, and baking! This recipe is perfect for using leftover Halloween candy or those half-empty bags of chocolate chips and nuts in your pantry. Feel free to get creative and customize these bars with your favorite mix-ins!...

With my easy oatmeal cookies recipe, you will have fewer dishes to clean, no time is required for softening butter, chilling the cookie dough is optional, and the batter can be frozen for cookies another day. These might be the best oatmeal cookies ever! For more cookies with oats, see our oatmeal raisin cookies that do call for creaming butter and sugar together or these white chocolate cranberry cookies....

I get so excited about this easy queso dip. It’s super creamy and perfectly cheesy, and I love the tangy pop of heat from pickled jalapeños (so good!). I love serving this queso with homemade tortilla chips, and if you want to get fancy, set out a couple more homemade dips like guacamole or this easy salsa! This queso has milk and cheese. If you want a dairy-free dip, I highly recommend our vegan queso made with cashews....

What is Coconut Whipped Cream? Non-dairy coconut whipped cream is a plant-based alternative to traditional whipped cream. Instead of using whipping cream, we use full-fat canned coconut milk or coconut cream. This recipe lasts for a week or more in the fridge, is dairy-free, and vegan-friendly. How to Make Coconut Whipped Cream It took me a while to get on the coconut whipped cream wagon, but now I’m on it. I’m in love (coming from someone who loves traditional whipped cream)....

My favorite vegetable lasagna inspires this super simple veggie pasta bake. It’s my attempt to make something just as delicious, while taking less time to prepare. I nailed it! I still love that lasagna, but when I’m short on time, I turn to this cheesy baked pasta. For more vegetable-heavy pasta recipes, see our veggie spaghetti and these veggie stuffed shells! Key Ingredients Pasta: I love ziti or rigatoni for baked pasta recipes....

My favorite thing about this vegetarian pasta sauce is that it’s made 100% from scratch, so you know every ingredient that goes into the pan. Our veggie pasta recipe is wonderfully adaptable, so you can use whatever vegetables you have in the fridge. It’s a great way to use those veggie scraps left in the produce drawer. We also love this easy vegetable lasagna! Key Ingredients Pasta: I used spaghetti in our photos and video, but any shape of pasta will do....

I shared Omana Paul’s Plum Cake Recipe last year and quite a few people have tried it and shared feedback. However, as with any other cake recipe, I also got a ton of requests for an eggless plum cake recipe. I don’t like slaving over anything in the kitchen and most of the recipes I saw online for eggless plum cakes were lengthy and required quite a lot of ingredients....

As many of you saw on Instagram, Adam and I spent some time on San Juan Island last summer. There are 172 named islands and reefs in San Juan County, which makes the area a stunning place to visit. Of those islands and reefs, three islands are accessible by ferry: San Juan Island, Orcas Island, and Lopez Island. You might remember we visited The San Juans a couple of years ago....

What’s your favorite method for how to cook asparagus? For me, choosing just one is impossible, because asparagus totally transforms depending on how you prepare it. When you roast it in the oven, its tips turn perfectly crisp and golden brown. When you blanch it, it comes out vibrant green and fresh, and when you grill it, it becomes wonderfully charred and juicy. Can I pick all three? Below, you’ll find my best tips on these techniques for how to cook asparagus....

For a lot of you, back-to-school season is meal prep season. As you get into a new routine at work, at home, or at school, having meals ready to grab & go in the fridge can be a lifesaver. One of my go-to meal prep tips is having a cooked grain on hand to bulk up salads or add to bowls. Quinoa is one of my all-time favorites: it’s SUPER healthy, it pairs well with a wide range of flavors, and it cooks in under 30 minutes!...

Huevos rancheros are the best way to start the day! I think so, at least. After years of living in Austin, I love any breakfast made with tortillas + salsa + eggs. Huevos rancheros are one of the simplest and most delicious. I’m sharing my easy huevos rancheros recipe below, complete with tips, variations, and ways to get ahead. I hope it becomes a staple in your rotation, and not just for breakfast....

This lemon pasta recipe is my take on Italian pasta al limone. It’s buttery, garlicky, and bright with citrus, and best of all, it’s super easy to make. You can whip it up in 20 minutes using under 10 ingredients. Even though this lemon pasta feels elegant, it’s a perfect weeknight dinner. While many lemon pasta sauces call for heavy cream, I skip it here. Instead, butter, Parmesan, and starchy pasta cooking water create the pasta’s silky sauce....
