Giada De Laurentiis isn’t afraid to be a nonconformist when it comes to cooking, and her Thanksgiving menu is no different. Just think about the prosciutto-wrapped turkey the Italian chef and Giadzy founder is whipping up this year. Or her savory, one-of-a-kind apple gorgonzola crostata. We could go on and on — but what we

Who says you need to spend the entire morning or afternoon roasting the turkey this Thanksgiving? Because with Martha Stewart‘s spatchcock turkey recipe, you can cut the cooking time in half (yes, in half) and, according to Stewart, serve an even more delicious bird this year. “Rather than roasting a whole bird this Thanksgiving, take

When baking an entire turkey is off the table this Thanksgiving, turn to Ina Garten, who has just recipe that’ll not only slash the cooking time but also looks — and tastes — incredible: her Tuscan Turkey Roulade. And the second you slice into the dish boasting a Tuscan twist bursting with fresh sage, fresh

Thanksgiving is almost here, and that means many of us are getting ready to host an epic meal for our loved ones. But when you’re hosting, there’s nothing more stressful than having a house full of hungry guests, two more hours of waiting until the turkey is done roasting, and nothing but canned cranberry sauce

While we love — and quite frankly, obsess over — Martha Stewart’s recipes, we kinda wish we knew what some of her go-to products are in her own kitchen. So we put on our detective caps and found an interview back in 2007 that shed some light on Stewart’s favorite cooking products. Back in 2007,

We have to admit that every year, there’s a part of us that wishes pumpkin spice season would never end. It’s a magical time of year, the transition between summer and fall, so we get sad when it’s time to say goodbye to our pumpkin spice lattes for another year. But the thing that makes

Fall means apples, from cider to sauce, from apple-scented candles to trips to the orchard. We love sipping warm spiced cider to start our day, and nothing beats the smell of a slow cooker simmering with homemade apple sauce – nothing but an apple pie baking in the oven, that is. We make apple pie

The best part of the holiday season is the excited feeling of suspense leading up to the big day. From decorations to special songs to our favorite meals, we start celebrating long before the actual day of Christmas arrives. Our new favorite way to build up the anticipation is also our old favorite, from childhood:

The temperature is dropping rapidly, there are pumpkins everywhere, and even Rachel Ray has announced that Dutch oven soup season is here. It’s the time of year for roasting, braising, simmering, baking, and stewing, and that means that, yes, you need a Dutch oven. After all, what other cooking vessel can do all of the

When it comes to breakfast time in the Duchess of Cambridge‘s household, one might picture posh fry-ups under fancy silver cloches, but in reality, the family-of-five start the day much as us regular folk do and like to eat healthily.

Like every Halloween before, we know that kids are going to be out in their neighborhoods looking for the best treats — without doling out any tricks. Before your kids are safely on their way in their costumes, you probably want them to have a tasty dinner or snack before that yearly sugar rush. Well,

This holiday season, when you’ve overloaded your tastebuds on pumpkin-flavored dishes, Barefoot Contessa host and entertaining extraordinaire Ina Garten has just the elegant dish to make: her Baked Spinach & Zucchini. It’s not only easy to make, taking just 15 minutes to prepare, but it also boasts two types of delicious cheeses: parmesan and gruyere —

TV’s queen of cakes Mary Berry has praised the Duchess of Cambridge as a “remarkable, enthusiastic cook” as she was made a Dame Commander for her incredible culinary career. The 86-year-old was awarded the honour for a lifetime of cooking, writing and baking as she was recognised for her charity work during an investiture ceremony

We’re kind of obsessed with pumpkin. We love pumpkin bread and pumpkin coffee, pumpkin beer and pumpkin pasta, and we’ve never met a pumpkin patch we didn’t want to frolick through like a joyful little lad dancing for berries and cream. But one of our favorite treats ever is pumpkin pie. We only have it

Huevos rancheros are everything boring breakfasts aren’t: vibrant, satisfying, and packed with nutrients. If you’re more of an scrambled-eggs-bacon-toast person, I get it. It’s tough to beat the traditional American diner breakfast. But there’s something that old standby lacks: color. Stare at that plate of brown and beige too long and it all sort of

Ina Garten loves her soups. So much so, the Barefoot Contessa host opened up to Costco Connection magazine last year about how she enjoys a warm, hearty bowl of soup for breakfast. So, it should come as no surprise that our Culinary Queen is armed with a slew of tasty soup recipes. (In fact, according

Every year at Thanksgiving, we wonder why we don’t eat turkey more often. That’s right, you turkey hating naysayers – around these parts we don’t swap our Thanksgiving turkey for ham or lasagna, we unabashedly love it. When cooked properly, turkey is juicy, flavorful, and just begging to be eaten cold out of the fridge
