Roasted Garlic and Herb Chicken with So Many Peppers by Sarah Grueneberg

Everyone needs a go-to roasted chicken recipe. Spatchcocking is the best way to cook chicken at home because the chicken cooks so evenly, and fairly quickly too. Normally, I like roasting the chicken on a rack, but this method of cooking the bird over the peppers is insanely delicious and they steal the show!

Broccoli and Cheese Twice-Baked Potatoes by Sarah Grueneberg

The potato is one of the humblest foods, but it has the ability to be a superstar — especially when you add cheese and broccoli. This dish is a winner for kids of all ages and is as welcome on a holiday table as it is for a quick mid-week meal. This recipe is inspired by Jaime's Grandma Nina, who makes twice-baked potatoes every Christmas. I learned her secret of adding cream cheese, which guarantees creaminess. Use your leftover filling and either bake it off in a small dish or fold it into scrambled eggs for breakfast the next day.
