Easy and Delicious Bites

There’s nothing like a fresh, warm dish to satisfy at the end of a long day, especially as the weather grows cool. For simple recipes that won’t leave you feeling like you’re spending hours in the kitchen, try these options from the Tastemaker cookbook. The zucchini fritters are the perfect guilt-free snack, while the s’mores dip makes it easy to indulge in the classic treat without the hassle of a campfire.

Not everything fried has to be bad for you—take it from this recipe, which uses more egg than flour to bind the vegetables and avocado oil for a light fry.

You won’t believe how fast you can whip this dessert up in the oven, allowing you to enjoy maximum gooey goodness in no time.
