Hi! Thank you for your interest in Rachel Cooks!

Hi Reader! This whipped ricotta is what I make when I want something that looks impressive but takes almost no effort. If you need an easy appetizer that still feels a little special, this is it. Blend, spread, drizzle—done. It really couldn't be easier. It's great served with crisp crostini, but it also makes a yummy fruit or vegetable dip! Get The Recipe

Hi Reader! Happy Friday! I hope you have a fun weekend planned and something to look forward to! We're planning to get together with family at least a couple of times, and head to our favorite spot to watch the fireworks! This week, I'm sharing a couple easy dinner recipes (the kabobs would be perfect for this weekend) and an assortment of other delicious recipes that I've shared over the years. New!

Hi Reader! There are nights when I want something that doesn’t feel heavy, but I still want it to taste like an actual dinner. This cod piccata is quick and simple. The lemon and capers keep it bright, and the butter smooths everything out. And cod has the perfect mild flavor to let those big flavors shine. It's great with a simple green salad (my arugula salad is always my go-to) or a simple pasta. Get The Recipe

Hi Reader! I just love grilling season. The food is flavorful, fresh, and easy to make. And typically quite healthy! I put together a list of some of my grilling essentials that make cooking outside a lot easier - if you bought just one thing from the list, make it be the Thermapen! It's honestly one of favorite kitchen tools. If you're looking for more inspiration, make sure to check out all my grilling recipes! Thermapen This is a must-have! It's by far the best meat thermometer out there...

Hi Reader! There are some meals that just feel like summer, and this is one of them. There's something special about food on skewers, cooked outside, eaten right off the stick. And because it's a meat and a veggie, you won't be running in and out of the house to cook the side dishes. It's summer perfection. And they're so pretty! Get The Recipe

Hi Reader! With the 4th of July right around the corner, I wanted to share a few easy and festive recipes for whatever celebration you may have planned!

Hi Reader! I truly know I'm a broken record, but WOW how is it almost July! I already want to slow down summer and make it last forever. This week's recipes celebrate summer in so many different ways - the grill, in-season produce, and a classic summer pie. I hope you find a recipe to love! Hit reply and let me know if you make one of these recipes, I love hearing from you! New! Grilled Pork Tenderloin Click For The Full Recipe! Updated! Asparagus Tart Click For The Full Recipe!

Hi Reader! Anyone else obsessing over asparagus right now? I've been picking up a bunch nearly every time I hit the grocery store and I'm so thankful that it is vibrant green, crisp, and fresh. It's so easy to cook whether it's grilled, sautéed, roasted, pickled, or ribboned. Lately, we've been loving easy air fryer asparagus. When you add it to puff pastry, it feels special and gourmet. This tart is way easier to make than you'd expect and it's perfect for any spring brunch, or you can serve...
