Toasted Coconut & Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
Chocolate chip cookies are my go-to “feel productive” project. Whenever I’m spinning my wheels or feeling stuck on an issue, I take a break to pull out flour, butter, sugar and eggs, and get mixing. Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, in particular, are my specialty — largely because they’re my husband Nate’s favorite, and because I…

5 Crazy Foods to Try This Year
Between working at Delish and considering ‘eating’ one of my top hobbies, I’ve gotten to try a lot of crazy, over-the-top foods this year. I feel seriously spoiled, and out of all of the dishes I’ve tried, some stand out as clear winners (others are more WTF?!). Here are the ones I can’t get out of…

Ranch-Roasted Broccoli & Cauliflower
Ranch makes everything better. There, I said it. Although anyone who’s ever spoken to me may not be surprised by that. I douse it on everything, I dip it on fries, I even wrote an ode to the salad dressing. Lately, I’ve been really into cooking with ranch seasoning and figuring out ways to use…

Accidentally Awesome Fudge Pecan Pie Bars
When it comes to Thanksgiving pies, only one matters in my family’s household: Chocolate pudding pie. It’s my dad’s specialty; so coveted he has to make two whole desserts (plus several pudding cups) to keep us from stabbing each other with forks, fighting for each morsel. I’m only just barely exaggerating here. The only one…

Turkey Cheese Dip Is The Perfect Winter Appetizer
I’ve been obsessed with tracking down the recipe for a friend-of-a-friend’s turkey cheese dip ever since I first tried it when I was 12 at a holiday party. It was just the right combination of gooey, melty cheese, crusty sourdough (it was served in a bread bowl, after all) and fresh, white meat turkey. My…

What’s the Deal with Bulletproof Coffee?
People have been buzzing about bulletproof coffee — AKA adding butter and/or oil to your java — for a few years now, but the more I interview people for Delish.com, the more often it keeps bubbling up. (Go ahead, facepalm at my bad pun; I’m sure I have more percolating.) It came up again last week,…

A Little Mid-Week Surprise from Starbucks
I like free stuff and I cannot lie. That’s why I use the Starbucks app whenever I buy a drink (or a bacon-gouda sandwich) from the chain, because every 12th purchase leads to one free item. For the first time since becoming a gold card member, however, I received something in addition to my dozen-star freebie: A…

I’m A Sucker for Free Cupcakes
If you wanted to ensnare me, you wouldn’t need an elaborate ruse. Just leave a trail of free cupcakes (no matter how questionable), or have a person dance around in a giant cupcake costume, and curiosity will compel me to follow the trail.

A Handy Guide to Keeping Portions in Check
Study after study has shown that our judgment is typically way off when it comes to portion control. We often dramatically underestimate calories and think of a portion as being much, much larger than it actually is (prime ex: Did you know one serving of avocado is just 1/5th of the fruit? That’s basically a…

The Quest for the Rainbow Bagel
It all started, as so many great adventures do, by mindlessly scrolling the Internet*. Specifically, Instagram, where I have lost many a minute of my life browsing the “Explore” tab. On Friday, one Insta was a total thumbstopper. I was completely mesmerized by it. It was like a unicorn of the breakfast world: A rainbow,…

Shockingly Good Airline Food
When it comes to flying, I pack snacks as if I might never eat again. (Seriously, who needs trail mix, apples and granola when your flight is only three hours?! This girl, apparently.) When Nate and I prepared to fly to Australia, I went into overdrive. Sure, we’d spend 5 1/2 hours on a plane…

3 Cooking Tricks I’ve Learned on the Job
I am so grateful that I get to do what I do each day. Test recipes, interview fascinating people, help create Instagram videos in honor of National French Fry Day (clearly, very important work) — it’s a total blast, and I can honestly say I’m psyched to go to the office each day. Part of…
