Here’s my promise. This gluten-free banana bread recipe works. It’s moist, tender, has the consistency of banana bread traditionally made with all-purpose flour, stays moist for days, has a high dome, tastes the way you’d expect banana bread to taste,…
Mustard-Bacon Glazed Brussels Sprouts
It’s all about the tangy mustard glaze, generously slathered on these Brussels sprouts that makes them such an easy side dish (they’re great in a salad the next day, too). This bright, punchy, smoky, easy-to-make mustard mixture also wakes up…
Blueberry Pie
Blueberry pie, with a crust so flaky and buttery, it melts on your tongue. Remember when Food Network Challenge was on the air? I was on the show in 2009 when they came to Orlando to film the Crisco National…
Sprouted Oats Pancakes
I call this recipe a “spoonful” recipe, because it’s literally a regular teaspoonful of this, and a teaspoonful of that, and super easy to make (a “tea” teaspoon, like the one that came with your flatware set, not a measuring…
Carrot Hummus
Smoky cumin, creamy tahini, zingy lemon, and peppery garlic are responsible for making hummus taste so darned good. These distinctive flavor profiles can be mixed with other things, too, to make unexpected hummus flavors, like chocolate mousse (crazy, but true!),…
3-Ingredient DIY Body Scrub
Does anyone else’s hands feel like sandpaper these days? Between dry winter air and frequent #covid hand washing, my skin is not looking or feeling its best. A simple, 3-ingredient exfoliating, moisturizing sugar scrub not only brings your hands back…

Most meatloaf recipes skimp on our favorite part — the caramelized, craggy edges that are packed with concentrated bits of everything we love about meatloaf. For more of the good stuff, there has to be a perfect ratio of moist…
Poached Cod with Creamy Leeks and Fennel
In partnership with Sitka Salmon Shares Tucked between historic textile buildings along the fishing wharf in Downtown New Bedford, MA., was a tiny fish shack. I’m not sure if it had a name, or how we even found it. I…
Mason Jar Dirty (Bacon) Mayonnaise
Mason jar mayonnaise is one of the easiest condiments to make from scratch. Simple ingredients come together quickly with the help of your blender’s blade, which happens to fit perfectly on a standard (not wide mouth) mason jar. TheKitchn.com has…
Za’atar Spice Blend with Marjoram
One of my favorite Middle Eastern spice blends, za’atar, combines an unfussy mix of toasted sesame seeds, sea salt, and sumac. Some versions contain thyme (which is what the name za’atar means), marjoram, and sometimes even cumin. I prefer mine…
Easy Chimichurri Sauce
This bright, punchy, easy-to-make, no-cook sauce happens in a Mason jar with staple ingredients, but can just as easily be made in a blender or food processor. The sauce can be used as a dip, a dressing, a marinade, slathered…
Gluten-Free Rosemary Cheese Crackers
Crackers. I just wanted crackers. With cheese. And to feel less resentful. Earlier this year, in addition to other food allergies I’ve been managing quite well for over 13 years, I discovered I can no longer eat anything containing gluten….
