These tacos have been a stealth archive favorite for nearly 17 years now -- they seem so simple but they hit all the perfect weeknight dinner notes with a quick black bean filling, easy slaw, and pan-crisped taco shell we should never be deprived of.

This is the pasta I crave every fall and my way is quick, not-too-heavy, and full of flavor from the silkiest sauce. Rigatoni, with its wide tubes and big bite, are my favorite here. Dinner tonight is sorted, yes?

A forever favorite soup, this one is unbeatable on a weeknight: five ingredients, less than 30 minutes, and tastes incredibly rich for something so light and simple.

A deeply toasty brown butter, brown sugar caramel tart with salted peanuts in a crisp shortbread shell. You finish it with a dollop of sour cream, which is cold and perfect here. I also include instructions to make this as salted peanut bars.

I don't make the rules, but if it's Halloween week, there needs to be chili on the stove at least once. Hearty, warming, easy to make ahead, and ready to feed a crowd before everyone sets off on a candy prowl.

This is the best candy I’ve ever made, compacting a whole bottle of fresh apple cider into a salt-flecked, cinnamony, buttery caramel that is so loud with everything awesome about fall, no October is complete without it.

Lemony, light and ever-so-crisp at the edges, these ricotta pancakes are finished with sauéed apples and I can hardly express how little I’d mind if someone came over and made them for me right now.

My favorite place, my favorite drink. Happy Friday!

One of my favorite fall combinations, ever, roasted winter squash is half-mashed with a tangy mess of vinegar-maple onions then heaped on ricotta toasts and finished with fresh mint. It's great for a party appetizer, or light meal with a big salad.

I think we deserve cake, a spiced, dreamy, single-layer cozy cake with a generous swoosh of cinnamon cream cheese frosting on top just because it's Thursday and waiting until the weekend seems kind of mean.

New! A one-skillet, super quick fall dinner that starts with frozen pierogi and ends with a blissful pan full of crisped, browned edges, buttery onions and mushrooms, a shake of vinegar, dollops of cold, tangy sour cream, and fresh herbs, lucky us.

A warm fall spin on one of my favorite summer salads, this keeps the bright flavors and textures — lemon, scallions, parsley, mint, garlic, and pita chips — but uses the cozy vegetables that are in season right now.

A cozy chicken noodle soup with buoyant, tender meatballs, all of the noodles your heart desires (ours desire a lot) and a speed of assembly impressive even for a weeknight.

Two dark chocolate cookies, a generous vanilla cream filling, and so much better when homemade.

Letter of recommendation: Make a deep skillet of your favorite taco or burrito filling, cover it with cheese and broil the lot of it until lightly charred and gooey on top, then scoop it up with tortilla chips. Repeat as needed, which will be often.

One bowl and one full can of pumpkin yield a towering loaf with a crisp cinnamon-sugar lid that's impossible not to pick off in deeply satisfying bark-like flecks. This is my forever recipe for pumpkin bread.

The simplest, fuss-free pan pizza with a thick, airy dough rippled with blistered cheese on top, and browned to a seasoned crouton-like crisp underneath, the kind that makes an audible crunch when you cut through it.
