Spiced Praline Meringues
These meringues are intentionally oversized—just as good hung from the Christmas tree as an ornament as they are to eat—and last for ten days, so, fortunately, their use as both decoration and edible treat are not mutually exclusive options.

Teriyaki Salmon and Kale Sheet Pan Supper
When I made this recipe for the first time, I had it in the oven 4 minutes after starting the process, and I sort of looked around my kitchen, startled, thinking, What just happened? If anything could logically be described as “impossibly easy,” this would be it. If you’ve never experienced crispy kale, you are in for a serious treat. It’s a great snack on its own, but sooooo perfect with the tender salmon. This dinner is a keeper, man!
