Hi! Thank you for your interest in Rachel Cooks!

Hi Reader! I have so many sheet pan meals coming this month and I could not be more excited! Whether you're vegetarian, trying to eat more plant-based meals, or just like good food, this one is for you. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. Get The Recipe

Hi Reader! If you’re stuck in a “we always eat chicken” rut (I get it!), this is the recipe that will snap you right out of it. Everything roasts together on one pan: juicy pork chops, crispy potatoes, and tender green beans. But the best part is that all of it gets kissed with that buttery, herby ranch magic. It's another sheet pan dinner win, and I can't wait to keep them coming for you! Get The Recipe

Hi Reader! Whew! Can you believe 2025 is already coming to an end? If you like to celebrate with some bubbly cocktails, I have a few great drinks for you!

Hi Reader! We do a super low-key New Year's Eve with our neighbors (it might just be so low-key that it involves Totino's pizza rolls), but it's fun, relaxed, and we get to be in comfy clothes. When you serve certain things that are just so delicious, they quickly become traditions. Below is what I'll be making this year to avoid everyone rioting. 😅 My neighbor brings over pigs in the blanket and a deliciously meaty queso. It's clearly a night of very healthy eating. This is a short email,...

Hi Reader! I love this salad because it really screams "holidays!" At the very least, it's wintery, cozy, and perfect for those colder days where still you're craving a delicious salad. Juicy oranges, crunchy pecans, creamy feta, and those ruby-red pomegranate arils that make it feel extra special. It's equally at home on a holiday table or your weekday lunch plate. Get The Recipe

Hi Reader! This may not be a traditional Christmas menu, but these are my go-to recipes every single year. We do Zuppa Toscana and homemade bread for Christmas Eve dinner. It's cozy and fairly easy, but still special. My mom always brings a spectacular salad, and dessert is usually an assortment of Christmas cookies! Maybe your family will love it, too?

Hi Reader! This meatball sheet pan dinner combines juicy turkey meatballs with roasted potatoes, carrots, and parsnips — all baked together for maximum flavor and minimal cleanup. Brightened with lemon, parsley, and a creamy cottage cheese sauce, it’s wintery food with a Mediterranean twist. This one was fun to develop and even more fun to eat! Get The Recipe
