Isn't this tart just beautiful? You know, as if you picked it up at a European bakery, one of those places where the pastries taste as good as they look?! But I make it and you can too! The crust is made with toasted almonds and – get this – pressed into the tart pan. That's right, no rolling! The recipe comes from a brand-new European tart cookbook published by my friend Helen, a long-time professional baker and the "goddess of pastry". You'll see, the cookbook omits the "hard" bakery recipes and instead features the "easy" bakery recipes that home cooks can handle with ease. Helen's cookbook has given me so much confidence, we're hosting a holiday dessert party this weekend! A Bakery-Beautiful Tart, Super-Easy for a Home Baker. Beautiful Color!

Hearty, homemade soup that's so-so easy, you barely have to cook. Just reach into the pantry for some healthy shelf-stable ingredients (canned beans, tomatoes, corn and green chiles;, a jar of salsa). Throw in some cooked turkey (hello, leftover Thanksgiving turkey) or cooked chicken (hello, rotisserie chicken) and a good measure of cumin for seasoning. Now slip it all into a slow cooker or slow-cook in the oven. It's the easiest supper you've made in a long while ... Real Food, Fresh & Family-Tested. Hearty & Filling. Budget Friendly. One-Pot Meal.
