This recipe makes about 16 meatballz and sauce for days. You can bag the homemade sauce, and just make the meatballs with whatever store bought sauce you love.

Sweet and nutty yet tart granola.
Read MoreHomemade Soft Pretzels
Like NYC street pretzels, just soft and with flavor!
Read MoreSeven-Layer Dip
People of the Midwest make everyone not from the Midwest look like an unexperienced dip maker. Seven layer, one of my favorite dips growing up in that part of the country (aside from appetizer-style cheese balls, of course), is just another excuse to scoop a lot of good things up with a chip.
Read MoreCarrot Ginger Dressing
You know, the one that comes on top of the little iceberg/radish/shredded carrot salad at your favorite sushi spot. Although this is technically a salad dressing, it’s thickness warrants some veggie dipping, or even to be spooned over fried rice.
Read MoreMiso Caramels
I love gifting treats around the holidays! But I hate making candy. Caramels are the only exception, because they just need a little TLC, not crazy candy making skills.

This can easily be made vegetarian by skipping the marinade and adding chickpeas, or sped up by grilling the chicken and cauliflower.
Read MoreBaked Eggs in Delicata with Miso Tahini Sauce
A creamy, crunchy, salty, sweet combo. Perfect for a big breakfast or just weeknight dinner.
Read MoreSmoked Gouda Dip
Here to grace you with yet another Midwestern-style cheese dip. Or what some of my greatest idols call “a mayonnaise-based salad” because there are… peppers and pickles in it.
Read MoreSalt-Baked Fish with Herbs + Citrus
No, not the saltiest fish dinner. Rather, the easiest way to cook a whole fish without covering your home in grease, bad fish smells and dirty dishes. Why does this work? It basically creates a warm little oven (inside your oven) that helps trap moisture in and cook the fish evenly.
Read MoreRosemary Marinated Castelvetranos
Flavor-packed beauties worth having in your fridge for late night snacking or making a few days before friends arrive. Bonus? Dunking bread in the infused olive oil once the Castelvetranos run out.
