The Easiest, Tastiest Mashed Sweet Potatoes | Chris Cooks

Sweet potatoes are all the rage these days. They're nutrient-dense, cater to all sorts of dietary trends, and are super versatile. Seriously, not many foods can be delicious as both pies and fries.

Rosemary & Chili Smashed Potatoes

I love potatoes. What can I say? You can take the boy out of Idaho, but you can't take Idaho out of the boy. Potatoes have so much potential for delicious flavor, and these Rosemary & Chili Smashed Potatoes are no exception. These are basically a hybrid version of a moist (trigger word, sorry) boiled […]

Roasted Butternut Squash with Rosemary & Sage | Chris Cooks

Squash is nobody's favorite food. Maybe a baby's? But when it comes to adult foods, squash doesn't fall at the top of the favorite food list. That being said, I think squash is a very underrated food that doesn't get enough hype. Consider this my attempt to hype up some hearty, yummy, roasted butternut squash. […]

Deviled eggs–you either love 'em or hate 'em. I'd say I'm in the "for" category, emphatically - especially with these babies. Smoked salmon and egg is a great pair, and with all the other flavors, it balances perfectly and will really surprise and delight anyone you make them for. Vase | Pendant | Table | […]

Roasted Beets You'll Wanna Eats | Chris Cooks

You probably won’t make this dish. It has beets in it, so why would you make this dish? Your mom used to make you eat beets, straight from the can, mushy and bright red. So, beets are gross. Right? Fluted Bowl | Ginger Jar | Honey Pot | Glass Carafe You probably won’t make this dish, […]

Cauliflower with Anchovy Panko | Chris Cooks

Anchovies get a bad reputation. I blame the 90s Ninja Turtles movies, but whatever the reason it is unjustified. Just because they're fish, doesn't mean that what you add them to will taste like fish. They are a seasoning, like garlic powder. If treated right, they add depth to a dish without drawing attention to […]
