My Easy Trick for Perfectly Fluffy QuinoaRecipes
Quinoa has come a long way — all the way from the back shelves of health food stores to national supermarket aisles. Its high protein content, sweet and nutty flavor, and delicate texture have made quinoa a popular whole grain substitute for starchier pasta and rice (although once you try it, you’re not likely to think of it as a “substitute” again!). Nutty quinoa is an easy grain to love, and it’s one of the most delicious, fast-cooking pantry staples we know.

I’ve Made Every Version of Chicken Soup, but This Is the Best OneRecipes
This is a soup you can be proud of. No matter how many times you’ve made it before, a pot of this soup on your stove should (and will) result in a self-congratulatory fist pump. And if you’ve somehow made it this far in life without making chicken soup from scratch using a whole chicken, then prepare yourself for something truly special. Dinner is going to be amazing.

This Legendary 7 Layer Dip Is a Classic for a ReasonRecipes
As far as classic party dips go, 7 layer dip ranks among the very best. Carefully composed and colorfully striped, it’s no wonder this dip is a key player on the tailgate snack table.

Why You Should Always Brine Your Chicken WingsRecipes
Whether it’s been at a restaurant, a bar, or a friend’s house, there’s one constant over the years that connects all of the great chicken wings I’ve had: They’ve been brined. If you’ve ever had that feeling of biting into a dry, overcooked, chewy wing, it’s completely preventable. Wings should be crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. That process, friends, starts with a good brine.

Oven-Baked Chicken Thighs Are My Weeknight HeroRecipes
I am a huge fan of chicken thighs, especially boneless, skinless chicken thighs because they’re inexpensive, tasty, and easy to cook. In fact, I find it difficult to mess them up. They are just dark enough to stay tender, but not so dark as to put off people who prefer white meat. Everyone who eats regularly at my house has eaten chicken thighs.In the summer I grill them every week, especially when I have a big table of people to feed.

These Snickerdoodle Cookies Stay Super-Soft Days After You Make ThemRecipes

From peanut butter cookies and oatmeal cookies to gingerbread cookies, any soft and chewy cookie automatically has my attention. These snickerdoodles were redesigned with that in mind. I often don’t like snickerdoodles that much; they get too crisp, too crunchy. Not these — they’ll still be soft days after you’ve made them.

Slow Cooker Honey-Glazed Ham Is the Easiest Holiday MainRecipes
My father in-law is not a big fan of turkey. So about five years ago, we started adding a bone-in-ham to the family Thanksgiving menu. But each year I am the host and cook, and so I would run into a problem: After making the turkey, how do I season and heat a full ham while all the side dishes are hogging the oven space? Fortunately I settled on a solution: Put the ham in a slow cooker!I admit, spiral-cut ham wasn’t something I always loved.

The 2-Ingredient Topping You Can Use All Week LongRecipes
If your refrigerator is anything like mine, half of the space is jam-packed with condiments. Those tubs of miso, sticks of butter, and bottles of salad dressing can add something special to simple weeknight meals. Instead of buying more sour cream from the store, I like to make the tangy, creamy condiment from what I already have on hand. It helps keep my grocery bill in check (something I prioritize as much as flavor when it comes to meal planning), and it avoids food waste.
