Watch These Mini 5-Ingredient Stuffed Peppers Disappear at Your Next Tailgate
These stuffed mini peppers have only 5 ingredients, are simple to throw together, and pack a ton of flavor. Baked and broiled, they are melty, cheesy goodness, but they are great raw, too.
Golden Butter Rice
This golden butter rice, flavored with ginger and turmeric, is a forgotten way of cooking butter rice. It isn't cooked rice with butter stirred in, it really is rice cooked in butter. This is my favorite version, with seasonings inspired by a classic Indian drink called golden milk.
Cheesy Garlic Zucchini Steaks
These cheesy garlic zucchini steaks are a novel way to dress up zucchini. Topped with ricotta and mozzarella cheese, then baked until tender, this is a dish that requires very little hands-on time.
