Strawberry Angel Cake

This cake is not trying to win awards. It’s not on the cover of Bon Appétit. It’s not layered with handmade curd or topped with spun sugar or anything wild like that. What it is, though? Comforting. Cold. Creamy. Sweet in all the right ways. And easy. So easy it should be illegal. My sister calls it “That Fluffy Strawberry Thing,” and I think that’s perfect. It’s the dessert you whip together the night before the church picnic or baby shower. You pull it out of the fridge and it’s already got that soft, cool, dreamy thing going on—like it’s …

H&T High Rollers

A roll-up so good, it might just outshine the main dish. These are the kind of little bites that folks hover around at parties, pretending they’re “just grabbing one more,” but you know they’ve already had four. H&T stands for Ham & Turkey, but let’s be honest, the real stars here are cream cheese and bacon doing their creamy, salty, savory thing inside a soft flour tortilla. Throw in a little cheddar, crisp lettuce, and a drizzle of red wine vinegar (trust me on this), and you’ve got yourself a snack that’s halfway between a deli wrap and a cold …

Crazy Crust Apple Pie

You want homemade—but fast, and with zero flour on your shirt. That’s when you reach for this gem from the back of the old metal recipe tin. Crazy Crust Apple Pie. No chilling. No rolling. No fuss. Just mix, pour, and bake. And somehow, like kitchen magic, this chaotic little batter bakes up into a golden, buttery crust that wraps around your filling like it meant to …

Maid-Rite Sliders

The taste of a diner classic — baked in a buttery bun and ready for game day, weeknights, or whenever your people are hungry. You ever bite into something and suddenly feel like you’re back in a small-town diner with a paper napkin in your lap, a cold root beer on the table, and zero plans for the rest of the day? That’s exactly what these Maid-Rite Sliders do for me. They’re a nod to those loose meat sandwiches from the Midwest — kind of like a sloppy joe, but without the mess or the tomato-y sauce. Just tender, savory …

Chicken Sub Salad — The Messy, Magical Lunch I Didn’t Know I Needed

You ever have one of those days where you open the fridge, stare into the abyss, and think… “Okay, what on earth am I gonna throw together now?” That was me last Tuesday. I had leftover rotisserie chicken, a half-used jar of pepperoncini from who-knows-when, and some salami I’d bought on sale because it “felt like a good idea.” My original plan was to make a sandwich — but then I remembered: soggy bread is a crime. So I tossed it all into a bowl instead. Chicken. Salami. Some chopped up peppers. Bit of mayo. A splash of that pepperoncini …

Tzatziki Chicken Salad

You know those recipes that feel like cheating a little bit because they’re way too good for how easy they are? Yeah. This is one of those. It started with me standing at the fridge in gym shorts, trying to figure out what to do with leftover chicken that wasn’t another boring sandwich or sad salad. I had Greek yogurt, half a cucumber (you know, the one that always rolls to the back), and a handful of herbs from my poor little garden that’s still hanging on for dear life. I tossed everything together in a bowl with a squeeze …

Cheesy Scalloped Zucchini

Let me tell you something real quick: I wasn’t always a fan of zucchini. There, I said it. Back in the day, I’d toss it in stir-fries or try to “healthify” a lasagna with it, and it always turned out… meh. But then, one summer, I was staring down a countertop covered in garden zucchini (you know how they multiply when you’re not looking), and I figured — why not give it the scalloped potato treatment? Cheese, cream, a little broil magic… and boom. Total game-changer. Now this Cheesy Scalloped Zucchini is a staple at my house — especially when …

Paula’s Coconut Cream Pie

The kind of dessert that hushes a room mid-bite. You ever make something so simple, so quietly perfect, that you surprise even yourself? That was this pie for me. A few summers ago, I brought it to a family reunion—you know, the kind with kids doing cannonballs in the pool, aunts gossiping under patio umbrellas, and at least five crockpots plugged in near the garage. I had just enough time that morning to toss this together and pray it’d chill in time. Well, turns out it stole the show. Folks were skipping over peach cobbler and banana pudding for a …

Chicago Spaghetti

A saucy, meaty, peppery classic straight from the heart of the Midwest You know those recipes that just stick with you? Not the flashy, Pinterest-perfect ones—but the real, dependable dishes. The ones that show up on your table on a random Tuesday night, or during a snowstorm, or when your cousin unexpectedly brings her new boyfriend to dinner. The ones that feel like a hug without making a big fuss about it. This is one of those recipes. Chicago Spaghetti isn’t fancy. It doesn’t come with shaved truffle or 47-minute YouTube instructions. But what it does have is soul. It’s …

Ina Garten’s Summer Garden Pasta: A Bowl of Sunshine

Let me tell you something — the first time I made this dish, I wasn’t expecting anything fancy. It was one of those humid late-July evenings when the last thing you want to do is crank up the oven. I had some cherry tomatoes on the counter, basil growing like wildfire out back, and a box of angel hair that had been hanging around the pantry a little too long. Then I remembered Ina. You know Ina — calm, unbothered, with her signature chambray shirt and that peaceful East Hampton kitchen. I pulled out her Summer Garden Pasta recipe, and …
