What’s the best part of a baked mac and cheese? The crispy edges, obviously. This sheet-pan recipe maximizes the crunch.

Roasted squash and mushrooms are the perfect building blocks for a week's worth of lunches. Here they're used as a taco filling for whole wheat tortillas.

These nachos lend themselves to customization and are an excellent place to use up little bits of leftovers (extra black beans, crumbled sausage or bacon, roasted vegetables—or a random radish or extra scallion).

This easy dinner is inspired by gomen, an Ethiopian dish in which greens are flavored with an aromatic spiced butter. Breaded tofu is a delightful counterpoint.

Thai green curry paste packs potent flavor into this one-pan, eight-ingredient, weeknight-friendly chicken dinner.

No tandoor oven? No problem. This recipe for chicken and vegetables marinated in yogurt and spices is cooked on a single sheet pan in a regular home oven.
