  Have you decided what 4th of July side dishes you’re making this year? If you’re still on the fence, you’re in the right place! Below, I’ve rounded up our best 4th of July sides for a crowd-pleasing cookout. They range from BBQ classics like coleslaw to easy grilling recipes and picnic salads galore. Many are easy to toss together at the last minute, and even more are great for making ahead. I don’t know about you, but the side dishes are always my favorite part of an Independence Day BBQ. They’re the most fun, fresh, and flavorful part of […]

Say hello to our best 4th of July drinks! They include cocktails that range from fruity and fun (looking at you, strawberry margarita) to crisp and classic (like this negroni). You’ll also find several non-alcoholic options here. They’re colorful, refreshing, and just as festive as any of the alcoholic cocktails on this list. I think drinks are an underrated part of any July Fourth cookout, potluck, or picnic menu. A summery cocktail or a cold pitcher of lemonade will instantly make your celebration feel more festive, and it gives everyone something to sip while you put the finishing touches on […]

May is one of my favorite months to cook. It’s a delicious mashup of spring and summer, with veggies like asparagus, peas, fresh herbs, and radishes all over the farmers market and tomatoes and zucchini on their way. We have the occasional chilly night or two, where a cozy bowl of asparagus soup might hit the spot, but we also kick off grilling season over Memorial Day weekend, ushering in months of cookouts, picnics, and generally eating outside as often as possible. Our most-saved May dinner recipes reflect all of that. This month, our readers loved produce-packed weeknight meals like pasta […]

In late spring and early summer, I have strawberry recipes on repeat. As soon as these sweet, ruby red berries appear at the farmers market, I start tossing them into salads, blending them into drinks, eating them for breakfast, and of course making strawberry desserts. (No summer is complete without classic strawberry shortcake, if you ask me.) Below, I’m sharing 15 fresh strawberry recipes that belong on your table this summer. They’re the ones I come back to every year—desserts like that strawberry shortcake, my go-to strawberry salad, homemade strawberry lemonade, and more. Try one or try them all to make […]

Break out the tequila—let’s make margaritas! These margarita recipes range from the classic combination of tequila, orange liqueur, lime juice, and agave to fruity margaritas, frozen margaritas, jalapeño-infused drinks, and more. They’re all refreshing, delicious, and easy to make. With Cinco de Mayo coming up next week, almost everyone where I live in Austin, Texas will be sipping a margarita this weekend. Often confused with Mexican Independence Day (September 16), Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Mexican victory over France at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. In Austin, it feels like a broader celebration of Mexican-American heritage, and margaritas are […]

Last weekend, I came home from the farmers market with tender asparagus, bright pink radishes, lush greens, and sweet, juicy sugar snap peas. Spring can sometimes get a slow start in April, but with the arrival of these spring vegetables, I’m calling it official: peak spring is here. For the next few weeks, I’ll be cooking spring vegetable recipes nonstop. Some of my favorites, like this asparagus risotto and meaty steamed artichokes, are best reserved for relaxed weekend cooking, but there are plenty of others that are entirely weeknight-possible. Below, you’ll find the quick and easy spring vegetable recipes I make […]
