No matter what time of day, these delicious baked eggs made with tangy kimchi and fresh summer squash are a delightfully flavorful dish.

Ingredients

4 tbsp unsalted butter
4 Eggland's Best® large eggs
1/2 small onion, sliced
1 medium zucchini, cut into 1" pieces
1 medium yellow squash, cut into 1" pieces
2 cups chopped kimchi with brine reserved
1/2 small bunch kale, stems removed and leaves torn (about 4 cups)
Cilantro, leaves and tender stems, for serving

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat oven to 375F.

    Step 2

    In a large, oven-proof skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onions and squash and cook until golden and crisp-tender, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the kimchi and its juices and cook until the pan is almost dry and the kimchi is rusty in color, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in kale leaves and toss until slightly wilted, about 1 minute.

    Step 3

    Make 4 divets in the kimchi mixture, crack an egg in each divet, season with salt and pepper, and bake in the oven until egg whites are cooked through and the yolks are still runny, 9 to 10 minutes. Top with cilantro and serve out of the pan.

This is what I call a fridge-eater recipe. The key here is getting a nice sear on the sausage and cooking the tomato down until it coats the sausage and vegetables well.

This summery sheet-pan dinner celebrates the bounty of the season and couldn't be simpler to make. Chorizo plays nicely with the salad, thanks to its spice.

You can consider this recipe a template for creating a gooey, cheesy instant ramen dish with an appetizing golden crust in the oven.
Charred Vegetable Ragù
This sauce is slightly magical. The texture cloaks pasta much like a traditional meat sauce does, and the flavors are deep and rich, but it’s actually vegan!

Garlic and chile are what really make this das medames sing, while hearty cumin, fresh cilantro, tomato, and tahini pile on layers of flavors.
Fufu
Fufu is a dish that has been passed down through many generations and is seen as a symbol of Ghanaian identity and heritage. Making fufu traditionally is a very laborious task; this recipe mimics some of that hard work but with a few home-cook hacks that make for a far easier time.
Crispy Oyster Mushroom Skewers With Bok Choy Salad
Oyster mushrooms are a strong all-rounder in the kitchen, seeming to straddle both plant and meat worlds in what they look and taste like when cooked. Here they’re coated in a marinade my mother used to use when cooking Chinese food at home—honey, soy, garlic and ginger—and roasted until golden, crisp, and juicy.
Kung Pao Cabbage With Tofu
Reliable cabbage is cooked in the punchy sauce and then combined with store-bought baked tofu and roasted cashews for a salad that can also be eaten with rice.
