This is the richest, most intensely chocolatey cake I've ever made and it only needs a few ingredients. It also happens to be gluten free which is a bonus.
Dense, fudgy and absolutely incredible. Made this: https://totallythedream.com/easy-flourless-chocolate-cake/
This chile relleno casserole has all the smoky, cheesy comfort of the classic dish without stuffing, battering, and frying individual peppers.
It’s made with roasted poblanos, taco-seasoned ground chicken, cheddar, Monterey Jack, and a soft egg layer that bakes into one hearty 9x13 pan. It also includes dairy-free swaps if needed.
It’s great for dinner, even better leftover, and surprisingly excellent for breakfast with an over-easy egg on top. I’m not saying this was my finest breakfast decision, but I’m also not taking it back.

This flavor combination is so underrated. The tartness of the cranberries against the sweet white chocolate works so well and the muffins come out incredibly fluffy. Made a batch last weekend and they didn't last long. Used this: https://totallythedream.com/white-chocolate-cranberry-muffins/
I made these as a side dish and they ended up being the main event. Crispy potato slices topped with bacon and melted cheese out of the air fryer. I had to stop myself from eating the whole tray.

This peach salsa is what happens when summer fruit gets a little attitude. Sweet, juicy peaches meet fresh lime and jalapeño heat for a combination that works on chips, grilled fish, chicken tacos, grain bowls — honestly almost anything.
Ready in minutes. Zero cooking. Disappears faster than you'd think possible.

Made this for a summer get together and it was the easiest crowd-pleasing dessert. Soft vanilla cake, fresh strawberries, whipped cream and you can slice it like a regular sheet cake. Everyone asked for the recipe. This is it: https://totallythedream.com/homemade-strawberry-shortcake-sheet-cake/
I've been trying to eat more plant-based during the week and kept running out of ideas that actually taste good by day three. This list genuinely helped me mix things up.

My very meat-loving partner actually preferred this over the traditional version which says a lot. The lentil and mushroom filling is hearty and deeply savory under a creamy mashed potato topping. This is the one I make: https://totallythedream.com/mushroom-lentil-shepherds-pie/
I'm not vegan but I make this regularly because it's just really good. Creamy Tuscan-style butter beans with wilted spinach, ready in under 30 minutes. Filling enough that you don't miss the meat at all.
