Corn Waffles With Strawberry Syrup
Stir the last few kernels of fresh corn into these sweet-and-savory waffles. No fresh strawberries where you are? Frozen, or even sliced plums, work just as well.
Halal Cart-Style White Sauce
This creamy, tangy sauce with a garlicky, black pepper punch is ubiquitous on platters of grilled meats sold by halal street carts in major cities across the U.S. We can't stop drizzling it on everything from pita sandwiches to roasted vegetables to crisp salads.
Granola Bars with Dried Fruit
A combination of nut butter, dried fruit, and lots of seeds makes these chewy homemade granola bars downright irresistible. For a crispier bar, toast them in the oven after baking.
Detroit-Style Pizza
Detroit-style pie is a thick, rectangular pizza with super-crispy edges, and the sauce is layered on top of the cheese. It is sometimes twice baked, and always delicious.
Papa John’s Style Garlic Butter Sauce
This thick, savory sauce is inspired by Papa John's breadstick-dipping sauce. But this one is made with real butter, so it tastes even more delicious.
Tomato-Lemon Tart
Using frozen puff pastry is the shortcut that makes this tart a new summer weeknight favorite recipe.
Escarole with Cannellini Beans
This makes an extra quart of cooked beans. Save (or freeze) for another batch of escarole, or serve them simply warmed in their broth.
Pan-Seared Eggplant with Buttermilk Dressing
Eggplant gets a big lift from buttery avocado and an irresistibly kicky, creamy sauce.
Perfectly Roasted Potatoes
You know what goes with pretty much everything? Crispy, creamy, perfectly roasted potatoes. The secret: Steam before you roast.
Stuffed Shells with Marinara
Nothing feels more decadent than giant shells of pasta filled with creamy mozzarella, Parmesan, and ricotta.
Piccante Eggplant Sauce
Never have button mushrooms been more delicious than in this veg-packed spicy dip recipe, also ideal as a sandwich spread or finisher for simply prepared vegetables.
Blackberry-Tahini Yogurt Cake
This simple berry-studded cake recipe is a real keeper.
Ricotta Pie with Amarena Cherries
Okay, this is actually a cheesecake, but it's so creamy and light that you won't care what it's called, you'll just ask for more.
Baked Plum Pudding
Bake your plums in an anise-tinged, pancake-like batter for a simple dessert that’s airy, silky, and just sweet enough.
