Hi! Thank you for your interest in Rachel Cooks!

Hi Reader! I love a good game day, but let’s be honest: I’m really just there for the snacks. Dips are the ultimate hosting hack. They’re easy to prep, they feed a crowd, and everyone loves them. Plus, they're often recipes you're not making on a Tuesday night for your family - they're a special treat, and perfect for gathering with friends and family. Get The Recipes

Hi Reader! I have been super-duper leaning into one-pan meals and sheet pan dinners lately. I hope you're loving making them as much as I'm loving thinking them up and testing them! The new recipe this week are both one pan meals. The older recipes include a time-saving crockpot meal, and two of my go-to breakfast recipes. I hope you're all staying warm! I am personally counting down the days until summer comes! New! Red Lentil Curry Click For The Full Recipe! New! Greek Salmon Sheet Pan...

Hi Reader! This is my favorite lazy-but-good salmon dinner. It's one of those recipes I lean on hard during busy weeks (which is....every week?). Everything goes on one sheet pan, making cleanup a breeze, which I always appreciate. It’s simple, dependable, and exactly the kind of dinner I actually want to make. Get The Recipe

Hi Reader! Teenager me would never believe adult me was saying it, but this curry is so delicious. Red lentils are the secret. As they cook, they break down and turn thick and creamy all on their own, which makes this curry incredibly comforting without much effort. Coconut milk adds richness, warm spices bring all the flavor, and most of the cooking time is hands-off. It’s easy, cozy, and even better the next day, which makes it perfect for busy weeks. Even if you're a curry skeptic, I urge...

Hi Reader! The year is already off to a busy start - it's hard to believe we're almost through January already! The kids have been busy with chess club, robotics, watercolor class, and lots of indoor tennis. We're counting down the days until it's warm enough to play outside again (although, sadly, we have quite awhile before that happens). In the meantime, we're eating lots of fresh and flavorful meals, but keeping them quick and easy to fit our busy schedule. I'm sharing some great ones...

Hi Reader! This meatball soup is my answer to comfort food that still feels good to eat. The turkey meatballs are tender and flavorful, the veggies make it hearty without being heavy, and the flavorful broth pulls everything together. It's also a fantastic one for meal prep - make it on Sunday and have warm, hearty lunches all week. Get The Recipe

Hi Reader! This teriyaki chicken bowl is one of those recipes that quickly makes life easier. Tender, saucy chicken, colorful veggies, and then the leftovers that can turn into lunches you’re actually excited to eat. And you know I don't love doing dinner clean-up. This feels like a complete, balanced meal without requiring five burners and a sink full of dishes. Get The Recipe

Hi Reader! While there's a place and time for gently braised meats, pot roast cooking for hours, or a beautiful roasted chicken, most of my winter nights call for quick and easy meals. More time to relax and spend time with my family. In this email, I'm sharing some of my 20 minute favorites, along with some pro-tip shortcuts. Let me know if you give one of these recipes a try! Pizza Pasta One pan. 20 minutes. PIZZA. This one is always a winner. Click For The Full Recipe! Chicken Bites These...
