Tuna Niçoise Salad

Nothing says “I’m on vacation” like a two-hour, three-glasses-of-rosé lunch—starring this easy niçoise.

Butternut Squash, Coconut, and Ginger Muffins

Like the best possible Morning Glory muffins but with grated butternut squash instead of carrot.

Power Butter

If you thought it was impossible to make nut butter more delicious, try this added-value version.

Caramel Apple Breakfast Cobbler

This cozy, sweet-and-savory make-ahead cobbler is ideal for busy holiday mornings.

Shirley Tonic

A grown-up Shirley Temple with holiday-spiced grenadine syrup, club soda, and a twist. Adding Scotch is up to you.

Better Than Celery Juice

Celery juice—all the rage! But still kind of a hard sell. This one gets help from apple, parsley, a dusting of black pepper. 

Tea-Totaler’s Toddy

A soothing green tea toddy you can drink on its own–or spike with mezcal.

Spicy Citrus Refresher

A big batch of jalapeño-spiced orange-lime juice that you can top with seltzer or spike with rum. Your call.

Three Sheets to the Wind Cake

One bite of this piña colada–inspired tres leches cake and you’ll understand why it earned the moniker “three sheets to the wind.”

Lentil Niçoise Salad

To make this endlessly riffable salad, pair whatever produce you’ve got with 7-minute eggs, a mustardy dressing, and your favorite protein.

Party Steak With Grilled Scallion Salsa Verde

Skirt steak is our favorite choice when grilling for a crowd for two reasons: it feeds many and cooks in a jiffy.

This Watermelon-Feta Salad Is Our New Go-To Summer Side

This summer, we’re swapping the basil and mint for turmeric and coconut oil in this classic summer salad.

Cantaloupe With Sugar Snap Peas and Ricotta Salata

Salty and sweet, crunchy and juicy, this throw-it-together summer side has it all.

Melon Panzanella

In this unexpected take on panzanella, chunks of ripe melon take the place of tomatoes. But the unexpected star is the brine from the Peppadew peppers: Spicy, sweet, and tart, it combines with the melon's juices and soaks into the toasted bread.

Tomato-Watermelon Salad With Turmeric Oil

Red, juicy, and sweet, tomatoes and watermelon are soul mates, and they both need salt, spice, and fat to reach their full potential.

Watermelon, Endive, and Fig Salad

Perfect as either a side salad or a cocktail hour snack platter, you’re going to want to keep serving this mix of complementary sweet and salty and crunchy and soft bites all summer long.

Honeydew Salad With Ginger Dressing and Peanuts

Just the side your barbecue ribs are looking for, this all-green salad gets a kick from serrano, ginger, and just a hint of fish sauce.

Honeydew, Jicama, and Mango Salad

Don’t worry about removing all of the melon seeds in this take on the popular Mexican street snack—they’re edible and add a little crunch.
