Vegetable Recipes

Squash casseroles are perfect for busy weeknights, holiday dinners, and potlucks alike.

Sad but true: Not every summer tomato is sandwich or salad-worthy. Or maybe your perfect heirloom tomatoes sat on the counter one day too long and have lost their glory. Fortunately, there's a simple way around that: Taking your tomatoes that are past their prime and disguising their flaws by cooking them. Repurpose those slightly disappointing tomatoes into soups, sauces, pies, tarts, and more while still capitalizing on their flavor. With the help of an oven, stove, or pressure cooker, nobody has to know you used less-than-ideal tomatoes.
