Salty, meaty, and loaded with veggies, it’s pure nostalgia in a bowl. I mean, what’s not to love? It’s a beautiful union of chewy egg noodles, savory chicken, earthy mushrooms, sweet vegetables, and an outrageous broth. Oh, and let’s not forget about the crusty bread bowl, either! Together, they make a hearty chicken soup so good you’ll inhale it. So, while it does call for many ingredients, I don’t mind making this for my family....

Unless you are about to depart for the Virgin Islands or live in Hawaii, I highly recommend you shut down your Facebook feed. The current onslaught of warm-weather vacation photos being posted by extended acquaintances can be a little demoralizing. I could become bitter, but instead, I’m fighting back with this glazed pineapple salmon. It’s a beach vacation in every bite! If you live near a sunny beach, I hope you enjoy this recipe (or try this Blackened Salmon) with some freshly caught large salmon fillet from your local market (I’m not jealous at all!...
If you spend any amount of time in the kitchen, you likely have a signature dish. That one recipe everyone knows you for, and always garners requests for the recipe when shared for the first time.

In elementary school, when I back to school shopped out of actual necessity instead of the love of salty snacks and pretty markers (both of which I would argue still qualify as necessities, if you are willing to be liberal with the term), lunchbox chips were at the top of my essentials list. My mom always bought a value-sized box that contained 20 to 30 smaller, personal-size bags of chips in assorted flavors....

There is hardly a better way to celebrate fall than with colorful roasted vegetables.

So delicious, in fact, that I made it twice in a row and this recipe definitely goes into my collection of great recipes forever to keep....
You can make salsa fresca two ways – coarsely chop all ingredients and then briefly pulse in a food processor, or finely chop by hand. By far, my preferred method is to hand chop. It takes a bit longer but the results are superior. Pulsing in a food processor, no matter how brief, results in an unappealing, mushy texture. Salsa fresca is best served at room temperature, so make sure to take it out of the fridge an hour or so before serving....

Have a few vegetables and some eggs? Excellent, you can make a frittata! Add a protein and some cheese, and you can make an exceptional frittata. I like my frittatas sturdy, sliceable, and containing a respectable serving of vegetables and protein. These standards (and you should have frittata standards too) mean my frittata recipes tend to lean heavy on the mix-ins. When I want all eggs, I make a scramble....
My newest wish (one that I didn’t know that I had but now pine for desperately) is that sweet potato hash browns replace white potatoes as the standard diner-issue side. They’re decidedly more interesting, delicious, and nutritious than white potatoes. And before you ask—yes, I’ve had what I would consider “good” hash browns and no, I’m still not a hash brown person. While I ordinarily jump behind anything with a crispy exterior and starchy interior (especially if it’s of the tater tots and baked fries variety), regular hash browns never did it for me....

Tomatoes and garlic are superfoods that are full of beneficial nutrients and antioxidants. Combined, they make a delicious salad. I love pairing tomatoes and garlic. My dressing for this salad is very simple – olive oil, salt, pepper and lime or lemon juice. Better yet, combine both lime and lemon juice to give the dressing a more complex flavor profile. I also like adding some orange juice to my dressing which brings in more citrusy flavor....

Ever wonder why sweets, biscuits, bread, and other fatty, carby foods tasted so much better when your grandma made them years ago? It’s not necessarily because she was a better cook than you, although that was definitely the case with my grandma. Instead, it could be because she relied much more heavily on Crisco and lard. Say what you will about them, but those old-school ingredients just made food taste better....
