These crispy squash chips are savory, snackable delights that are also eco-conscious, making use of vegetable waste. Make them after or before you roast your squash flesh, when the oven is already hot. Serve with cool and creamy dips like buttermilk ranch dip.

Russian Honey Cake
This honey cake can be made in three different ways: the hard way, the harder way, and how we're going to do it — the hardest way... Because it's that worth it. The secret to this cake's fantastic flavor is the tiny amount of bitterness from burnt honey. The slightly tangy whipped cream frosting provides a bit of acidity and lovely light texture, and unlike other frostings, it's not too sweet.
