If you love donuts, be sure to also check out our Beignets, Classic Apple Cider Donuts, and Old-Fashioned Sour Cream Doughnuts next! Do you know when is a good time to eat paczki, other than Paczki Day of course? Anytime, that’s when. Seriously, these are such a yummy treat that it’s sad that they typically only get one short day of glory each year. Paczki (technically, pączki to use the correct spelling from the Polish alphabet) are pillowy soft, sugar-covered Polish donuts filled with a variety of yummy fillings and are traditionally eaten on Fat Tuesday, which comes before Ash Wednesday and Lent....

This silky, smooth stew is cold weather comfort food at its finest!! Chicken is braised in a paprika laced gravy and finished off with a dollop of sour cream. This is a super easy dish that will wow you with both its flavor and simplicity. Many of us are aware of Hungarian Goulash, with that unmistakable flavor profile from their famous sweet Hungarian paprika. Well, it’s about time to make their other family favorite world famous, this time putting chicken in the pot....

Tell me, how many hot peppers can you handle? My Jamaican Jerk Marinade is a flavor BOMB! It’s literally an explosion of flavors, where hot peppers, spices, herbs and a hint of sweetness sing in perfect harmony. This island marinade tastes robust yet complex, exotic and lively. Nothing in this world beats the jerk aroma when that meat hits the grill. All it needs is a good massage with this super easy marinade and rest peacefully for some hours in it, and there you go!...

Mango Sorbet I love having the option of turning frozen diced mango into sorbet, especially on warm days. It’s so easy to do—it’s similar to my Instant Frozen Yogurt—and seriously delish. This is a great option for families who can’t do dairy, those who love mango, or as a snack or dessert to share. You need either a blender or a food processor to make this recipe. They work similarly, so use the one you prefer....

Dal (also spelled dhal or daal) is one of the most versatile, healthy, filling, and delicious meals. Dal translates to lentil, but when referred to in the context of food it means a spiced Indian lentil soup. Dal can be made thick or thin, and with any kind of lentil. It can be made with cream and butter, or with a simple tempering of spices. No matter how how it’s made, it’s sure to turn out tasty....

We love our Easy Pumpkin Pie and sometimes like to make it in individual portion sizes because it’s just fun! This Thanksgiving recipe for kids (or dessert for kids for any other day) is easy to mix up and easy to make, especially if you use refrigerated pie crust from the store. You can also make the pies ahead of time and stash them in the fridge until you’re ready to use them, which makes this an easy recipe to prep ahead....

I sure love a warm slice of cornbread slathered with butter and drizzled in honey, especially with a bowl of chili or a pot of stew. It’s a favorite comfort food for loads of people, but I thought it would be fun to do a pumpkin twist on cornbread for October and the autumn vibes are on point. The addition of real pumpkin puree and warm pumpkin spice sets this cornbread apart from my classic homemade cornbread recipe....

It’s House of Nash Eats’ 6th Anniversary! My first post ever went up in June 2016 and it’s been a crazy, amazing experience developing, photographing, and sharing recipes ever since. There are now over 1,000 recipes on the site and more than a million visitors here every month! The first recipe I ever published was for a Blackberry Nectarine Crumble. I still love that post with all the pictures of my kids when they were tiny and we went blackberry picking at a nearby U-Pick farm....

With all of the easy toddler pasta recipes on my site, I knew I was missing the master, basic, yet most delicious one pot mac and cheese option. It’s a simplified version of my One-Pot Broccoli Mac and Cheese and is so darn fast and yummy! This is my favorite easy mac and cheese recipe since it takes the same amount of time to make as boxed mac and cheese, yet I can make it from basic pantry staples....

This post is sponsored by Colavita. I love easy dinners that require less cleanup and simple cooking methods, and this new one-pot pasta is SO good. It has the best of both worlds of pasta and tacos, requires just one pan, and is so versatile. You can use ground beef or trade in ground turkey or chicken—or make it vegetarian. The pasta is so creamy and yummy, and it’s also rich in iron and protein as an added bonus....

Vibrant green, silky smooth, creamy spinach curry base with succulent paneer morsels floating in between. So, so good and addictively delicious with paratha, or over a bed of rice. This is one of my comfort food that I would like to introduced to y’all. My very favorite Palak Paneer, my style… Yes, there are quite a few different ways and methods to make this quintessential Indian curry. Every restaurant and household would have some tricks and tips to make this just right, and everyone has their own preferences....

Having spent a good part of my childhood in South Florida, I grew up on Cuban food. Mojo Pork has always been one of my favorites, and their Pollo a la Plancha is one of my go-to recipes for a quick and easy dinner. Today’s Palomilla Steak is another Cuban restaurant staple. It’s simply a thin steak that sears up really quick. The secret is in the marinade, which gives it a ton of flavor....

If you love macarons, be sure to check out some of my other favorite flavors like Pistachio Macarons, Lemon Macarons, or Classic French Chocolate Macarons! This post was originally shared in December 2017, but has been updated with new photos and helpful tips. I love the classic Christmas cookies like peanut butter blossoms or soft & chewy gingerbread men, but there are so many cookies to try and so few days of Christmas that each December I like to make at least a couple new cookie recipes....

Sesame Tofu Tofu seems to be one of those divisive foods that people either love or hate, but I’m firmly in the love camp—and this easy method of preparing it has made my kids fans, too.

This healthy jam recipe is packed with nutrition from both the blueberries and the chia seeds....

My pizza adventures continue with this deliciously savory roasted eggplant pizza. We’re talking a pillowy pizza crust topped with juicy, tender chili oil roasted eggplant. Dollops of creamy vegan almond ricotta, a flavorful red sauce, and completed with drizzles of chili oil and fresh basil. Eggplant is one of the most underrated pizza toppings, but it’s so good atop dough! It’s easy to prep in advance, which means low stress when it comes time for pizza assembling and baking as everything is ready to go....

Roasted Frozen Broccoli My son has always been wary of broccoli, but as soon as I tried roasting frozen broccoli, it was like a lightbulb went off. This texture, which is a little softer than roasting fresh broccoli, was easier for him to eat. We also tried it straight off the pan the first time I made it, which made it feel novel and fun, and I think that was key!...

Whenever we have apples lingering in our fridge, I turn them into these delicious sauteed apples. They are soft, yet not falling apart, and they are pleasantly sweet and cinnamon-y without any added sugar. They’re great on their own and served with all sorts of foods. And they are much more interesting and special than eating a plain apple after you’ve had your fill a few days in a row!...
