I use the Betty Crocker Pizza Maker to prepare virtually any kind of meal, mess-free. (And it’s perfect for meals on the go while traveling too.) When my friends introduced me to the Betty Crocker Pizza Maker I was skeptical. Is it really worth getting an appliance just for pizza? Where will I store it?…

You can either convince your kids to eat veggies. Or get that nutrition in without them realizing. Here are 3 ways to get it done.

The Absolute Best Dessert for a Cold Winter Night (Hot + Cold = Perfect)
Hot cake and cold ice cream? It’s the perfect combination for the best dessert and the easiest to pull off. In the winter we want hot desserts, but even when it’s cold outside, hot desserts are even better with something cold on top. This one is special enough for those long Friday nights when there’s…
One easy pesto + One chicken = Spatchcock Pesto Chicken
Upgrade your simple roast chicken. Great flavor and ease make this spatchcock chicken a winning dinner.

Don’t like to dip and coat each strip of onion? This version of onion rings is way easier (and very tasty, too). These onion rings are great over a steak (like you enjoy in steakhouses) or on their own as-is with some mayo, ketchup, sweet chili sauce, or whatever you like to use as a…
These are the Fritlach for When You Literally Have Five Minutes. Literally
Could fritlach get easier? Not easier than this. Try this 5-minute version.

These Are the Only Vegetable Latkes You Will Actually Love
Do the healthier substitutes for potato latkes just not do it for you? If you’re going to change it up a bit, these vegetable latkes are the only way. I’m a purist, and really I don’t think anyone should mess with latkes by making different versions and variations. I prefer my latkes the plain, old-fashioned…
See Why We’re Smitten by Sina Mizrahi’s Completely Magnificent Blood Orange Salad
It’s the Perfect Refreshing Salad You Need to Balance It All Out. I’m not complaining about eating soft, pillowy doughnuts straight after they’ve been fried and coated in sugar (though I’m not much of jelly fan but I don’t discriminate)…or the crispy potato laced latkes that are beyond golden brown, edging on blackened. I love…
