The summer of ’26
It was the autumnal equinox a few days ago. For a moment our planet was balanced perfectly, with everyone experience twelve hours of daylight and twelve hours of darkness. Here in the northern hemisphere, the days will get shorter and the nights will get longer until the winter solstice. Summer is…
Butternut Squash Soup with Red Lentils
A beautiful butternut squash soup with enough substance to make a real meal of it. Finish each bowl with a colorful medley of toppings: a bright herb oil, toasted pepitas, goat cheese, or whatever else you have on hand. Peak meal in a bowl situation. Continue reading Butternut Squash Soup with Red…
Pie Recipes: Favorite Sweet & Savory Pies
A collection of my most loved pie recipes, the ones I can't stop baking. Sweet or savory, fruit-filled or hand-held, these pies come out of the oven beautiful and fragrant. Classic at heart, with just enough modern edge. Continue reading Pie Recipes: Favorite Sweet & Savory Pies on 101 Cookbooks
Cottage Cheese Pancakes
This cottage cheese pancakes recipe is a delicious high-protein breakfast. Thanks to the cottage cheese and eggs, each pancake packs in 7 grams of protein! Better yet, the pancakes don’t actually taste like cottage cheese. Instead, they’re perfectly fluffy, moist, and filled with a lightly sweet…
Macro Bowls
The macro bowls featured in Joe Yonan's Mastering the Art of Plant-Based Cooking - nutty brown rice, a rainbow of vegetables, and a miso-tahini dressing you'll want to put on everything. Continue reading Macro Bowls on 101 Cookbooks
tomato risotto with frizzled red onions
If you’re one of those people who gets irritated by the specter of pumpkin spice — or, gasp, Halloween decor — on an 85-degree week in September; if you understand that there are what will feel like infinite months left to spend shivering and longing for stew, and there’s no reason to beckon them…
Turkish Eggs
I’ve made this Turkish eggs recipe more times than I can count in the last few months. It’s become a breakfast staple in our house, on repeat on busy weekdays and lazy weekends alike. It starts with a base of garlicky yogurt that I top with poached eggs and a richly spiced Aleppo pepper oil (butter…
Banana Pepper & Goat Cheese Tart
A golden, buttery tart layered with goat cheese, banana peppers and lots of scallions, then finished with basil, chives and zucchini blossoms. Simple and summery! Continue reading Banana Pepper & Goat Cheese Tart on 101 Cookbooks
Pickled Beets
These quick pickled beets are so good that I like to eat them straight from the jar. Roasted, then pickled in a simple brine made from apple cider vinegar, water, sugar, and salt, the beets are tender, sweet, and tangy, with a sour, savory kick from garlic and mustard seeds. When I’m not snacking…
Blackberry Cobbler
This blackberry cobbler recipe is a summertime delight! It features jammy blackberries underneath a tender, golden, scone-like topping. I’m quite smitten with this recipe—something borderline magical happens when you bake blackberries. The heat of the oven seems to enhance their floral undertones…
High Summer Lunch Salad
This substantial lunch salad brings together peak summer tomatoes and pluots with protein-rich mung beans and a simple vinaigrette. Fried shallots and pistachios bring the crunch, while rings of banana pepper add a bit of kick and a pop of color! Continue reading High Summer Lunch Salad on 101…
peach cobbler loaf
A friend asked me last week how long it takes to get a recipe right. I told him the only answer I know: As long as it takes. I’d like to be someone who could “adjust my expectations,” make peace with “close enough,” or have the slightest amount of chill when it’s clear that whatever I’m trying to…
Pan-Fried Tempeh Ponzu Balls
These Pan-Fried Tempeh Ponzu Balls are a high-protein, veg-friendly addition to all sorts of meals. They’re golden-crusted, bite-sized, and an easy way to work more tempeh into your cooking. Give them a try! Continue reading Pan-Fried Tempeh Ponzu Balls on 101 Cookbooks
cucumber salad with sesame and rice vinegar
It is an error that needs correcting that in the near-20 years of plugging recipes into this url, only a few truly star cucumbers — and highly unrepresentative too, given that we are probably eating some format of cucumbers at half the nights of the week with dinner, and snacking on them throughout…
Cherry Tomato Tart with Burnt Scallion Ricotta
This cherry tomato tart starts with an all-butter crust spread with a thin swipe of chili crisp, then filled with ricotta folded with deeply roasted scallions and fresh chives. A generous layer blistered cherry tomatoes tops the ricotta, and a final scattering of toasted almonds brings added…
house lemonade
I realize as far as recipes go, suggesting one needs one for lemonade is questionable. What’s next, a set of detailed instructions for salted water, simple syrup, or buttered noodles? ( Whoops! ) But it turns out I have opinions on everything and there’s no time like the n th heat wave of the…
Iced Sesame Noodles
have become a thing in our house in recent years. Cold noodles plus a creamy sesame sauce and a line up of great toppings equals custom bowls everyone loves! Continue reading Iced Sesame Noodles on 101 Cookbooks
Blueberry Cobbler with Almond Topping
This blueberry cobbler is a summertime delight! It features jammy ripe blueberries beneath an almond flour-based biscuit topping that’s tender on the inside and perfectly crisp and craggy along the edges. I hope this recipe will become one of your go-to summertime treats. It’s certainly a winner in…
hot dogs with vinegared iceberg and potato chips
In something I never expected to have to clarify, this is a hot dog recipe but it is not a recipe for hot dogs. I know that I have a history of making foods from scratch that most sane people do not feel the need to — cream cheese , fig newtons , bagels , vanilla extract , and [coming soon] almond…
Green Bean Salad with Peaches
This green bean salad with peaches can anchor many summer meals. It features caramelized onions, toasted nuts, dates, a jolt of serrano pepper and a unifying oregano-garlic drizzle. Continue reading Green Bean Salad with Peaches on 101 Cookbooks
