Pesto Meatball Pizza

Pesto is a secret weapon to save you prep time while imparting an unmistakable depth of flavor. Made with basil, olive oil, garlic, parmesan, and sometimes pine nuts or walnuts (there are many bottled nut-free options), it is a natural fit for a meatball. Adding meatballs to a pizza is a fun and simple way to make a one-dish meal that everyone in the family will love. Click here to visit the new home of KitchenDaily!

Avocado Dressing

My local market had an impossible-to-resist pile of ripe avocados for an impossible-to-resist price so I came home with a big bagful. And while I'm a happy member of the avocado toast for breakfast club, I also needed to find other ways to use up my bounty. Here's a very simple and delicious avocado-based salad dressing that also makes a nice summer dip for crudites.

Chicken with Apples and Cider

If you prefer, swap in either bone-in chicken thighs, or drumsticks for the whole leg. If you'd rather use chicken breasts, plan on considerably less time in the slow cooker or the breast meat will be dry. It's easy to pull the skin off the legs, by grabbing it with a paper towel. The skin was removed to cut down on the amount of fat in the dish, but if you like, you can leave it on-just skim any fat from the surface of the sauce before serving.

Pan-Seared Pork Chops with Cider Sauce

Pork chops are inexpensive to buy and quick to cook. Plus, the meat is lean, which is terrific for health, but not so great for taste. Preparing a quick pan sauce turns something basic into a restaurant-quality dish. Searing the chops stovetop and deglazing the pan with cider vinegar adds a tangy punch that brightens the flavor of the meat. Click here to visit the new home of KitchenDaily!

Fantastic Taco Casserole

I originally found this taco casserole recipe in a Taste of Home magazine. Since then, I have made this recipe at least 50 times. I love it because the ingredients list isn't complicated and, based on the layers, I can readily remember all ingredients when I am at the store without my recipe card. I have served this for myself and had wonderful leftovers or many times I have made it for company with a nice green salad to accompany it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Macaroni & Cheese Drums

This dish is inspired by timpano, a rustic Italian pastry dome filled with pasta, meatballs, cheese and eggs - the perfect way to use up leftovers and make a whole new meal. Adding frozen peas and carrots to boxed macaroni & cheese is an easy way to put some vegetables in this kid- favorite food. Line small ramekins with pastry, ham or grilled zucchini, fill it with the macaroni mixture, and your little ones will eat to the beat of their own individual drums!

Mixed Vegetable and Farro Soup

Eataly 's vegetable counter specializes in vegan dishes?specifically, vegan dishes that people might not suspect are vegan. One is this thick, hearty soup made with a colorful mix of carrots, peas, leek and onion. Mario Batali also adds borlotti beans and farro, which make the soup hearty enough to be a main course. The crunchy grissini on the side aren't vegan; they're sweetened with honey. Click here to visit the new home of KitchenDaily!

To Die for Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes

These are the BEST mashed potatoes EVER! And they are so user-friendly because you can make them the night before. I never take these anywhere without people begging me for the recipe. Once you make these, you will never want to make them any other way. Also great in twice-baked potatoes. And, if you need really easy, buy pre-cooked mashed potatoes, add from these ingredients, stir, and re-heat in microwave. Tastes almost as good as home-made! My favorite way to cook these are in the crockpot! EDIT: Please note that I have always cooked these in the crockpot and have never baked them; I have gotten new feedback that they taste FAR BETTER if cooked in the crockpot, so this is now my only recommendation for cooking source.
