Turkey Waldorf salad with diced turkey breast, apples, celery, and raisins tossed in a yogurt-apricot-Dijon dressing. A lighter post-Thanksgiving leftover riff on the classic Waldorf.

Meringue Berry Pie
Meringue berry pie features an almond Pavlova-style shell holding vanilla ice cream, mixed fresh berries, and a homemade raspberry sauce. Crisp on the outside, marshmallow soft inside, with summer fruit on top.

Sugarplum Black Forest Torte

Crazy cake mixed right in the baking pan with no eggs, no butter, and no milk. Cocoa, vinegar, and oil create a surprisingly moist chocolate cake from Depression-era ingenuity.
Hot Pepper & Garlic Spaghetti
Hot pepper and garlic spaghetti pulls heat and flavor straight into the pasta water. Chili and garlic blended into the cooking liquid season the noodles from the inside out. Tossed with olive oil and parsley. Five ingredients, twenty minutes.
Chili a la Becker
Pork chili with mushrooms, green pepper, celery, and kidney beans in a garlic-rubbed skillet. A milder, more nuanced chili that swaps beef for ground pork and adds earthy mushrooms.
So Good Mushroom Sauce
Vegan mushroom gravy thickened with toasted dry flour instead of a fat roux. Soy sauce and molasses build deep, savory umami without butter or stock. Oil-free.
Sweet-Sour Barbecued Ribs
Sweet-sour barbecued ribs with a honey-ketchup glaze, Worcestershire, and lemon juice. Charcoal-grilled back ribs basted with a sticky, tangy homemade sauce.
My Beef Barbecue

Homemade chocolate sauce with semi-sweet chocolate, butter, sugar, and a splash of vanilla. Glossy, pourable, and shelf-stable for 6 months in the fridge. The make-ahead dessert sauce that beats every jarred version.
Slow Cooked Pepper Steak
