Melissa Clark’s Mushroom Bourguignon
After discovering a bag of chickpea flour in the cupboards, I decided to make pudla (Indian chickpea crepes) topped with Melissa Clark’s Mushroom Bourguignon.

Kendra Vaculin’s Cozy and Quick White Chicken Chili
This insanely delicious, hearty Cozy and Quick White Chicken Chili is the perfect weeknight meal as it’s ready in under 45 minutes and doesn’t skimp on flavor. The base is white beans and ground chicken seasoned with a tasty combo of chili powder, cumin, coriander, and diced green chilies.
Eric Kim’s Salt-and-Pepper Ribs with Fresh Mint Sauce
I love the simplicity of Eric Kim’s Salt-and-Pepper Ribs with Fresh Mint Sauce, which took inspiration from his dad’s recipe, slicking the baby back ribs in olive oil and sprinkling with salt and pepper before roasting in a very hot oven. The simple treatment allows the ribs to shine!
Chris Morocco’s BA’s Best Lasagna
BA’s Best Lasagna is a labor of love but worth the effort. Pork and beef make up the base of a ragu with white wine, tomatoes, milk, broth, and soffrito that marries perfectly with the creamy béchamel infused with parmesan, cayenne, and nutmeg.
Ali Slagle’s Green Curry Glazed Tofu
I am slowly learning to love tofu. One of my new favorites is Ali Slagle’s Green Curry Glazed Tofu – I love the trick of cooking the tofu with a bit of the Thai green curry and coconut sauce allowing the sauce to absorb into the tofu before adding oil and browning on all sides.
Kendra Vaculin’s Aleppo-Chicken and Broccolini Grain Bowls
These Aleppo-Chicken and Broccolini Grain Bowls feature a quick and flavorful preparation with roasted broccolini and chicken thighs coated in Aleppo pepper-infused Greek yogurt, served on bulgur wheat with a drizzle of Greek yogurt, creating a delightful contrast of flavors and textures in just 40 minutes.
The Woks of Life’s “Mongolian” Beef
