I was working the soups and sauces station at a popular restaurant in the late '80s when the chef handed me a recipe to make as the special of the day. The chef, who was also the owner, had lived in France and taught me to make several authentic French dishes. This one, called a pan bagnat, opened my eyes to a whole different way to sandwich.

I was in my 30s the first time I ever heard of something called “cracker salad.” Despite living in the South for most of my life, the Southern classic had slipped by me unnoticed, like a quiet neighbor you only connect with after years of living on the same block.

Full disclosure: I have no idea where this recipe came from. I might’ve thrown it together spontaneously using ingredients that were on sale at Kroger, but it’s entirely possible I was inspired by an Instagram influencer or something I pinned on Pinterest. More than likely, it was a combination of the two. What I know for a fact, however, is that it is my most-made dinner recipe of all time. I’ve made it at least once a week since I was a junior in college—and I’m almost 30.

My family eats a lot of vegetables. Part of the reason is that our taste buds love, love, love fresh produce from farmers markets, so there’s usually something green, yellow, or red on our table. And if you'll let me brag one bit, part of it also is how I prepare them.

Made famous in 2000 by former First Lady Laura Bush, these cowboy cookies are an updated twist on a traditional oatmeal cookie, trading raisins for chocolate chips, pecans, and shredded coconut. (We've swapped out the shortening as well!) To take it a step further, you can also toast the coconut and pecans for enhanced nuttiness. Here's what you'll need for about 18 cookies:

As a home chef, I love finding kitchen gadgets that make weeknight cooking less like a chore. Like my mini sautee pan—it solves the whole cooking-for-one dilemma on nights when I'd rather just order takeout.

There is much to gawk at when it comes to the rise of the carnivore influencers — those eaters who, fueled by the pursuit of the “ancestral lifestyle” or the desire to “heal” through food, have forsaken vegetables in favor of going “animal-based.” This leads them to gobble down “organ smoothies,” chew on chunks of brown butter as stand-ins for caramels (the diet forbids added sugars), and fly with containers of hamburgers and blocks of butter, lest they be swayed by the temptations of processed airport food.

When it comes to convenience, it's hard to beat a slow cooker. Simply add meat, veggies, and seasoning to a slow cooker in the morning, and you'll have a delicious meal waiting for you once you get home for dinner. The only downside to these appliances is that since they are so cumbersome and take so long to cook, you can't normally use the same slow cooker to make multiple dishes in a day. Fortunately, there's an easy way to turn your lone Crock-Pot into a duplex of flavor. All you need to do is make a divider using a couple of slow cooker liners and a few sheets of aluminum foil.

I know that historically, people tend to thing of molasses cookies as a wintertime or Christmas cookie. While they're not wrong, molasses cookies can be enjoyed any time of the year. I have fond memories of sneaking into my grandfather's cookie stash (year-round) just to get my hands on those soft, sweet, and warm pieces of heaven. Here's what you'll need for about 30 cookies:

Eating fruits and vegetables every day is a great way to stay healthy – just make sure you wash them properly first. While most people are aware of the dangers raw meat and fish can pose to health, many consider fresh produce to be "safe".
