Cheese

This portable pocket of cheesy goodness tastes like your favorite pizza toppings found a puff pastry home.

Grilled cheese? Yes, please. But not that kind. We’re talking creamy-charred paneer with grilled green beans—a perfect vegetarian side for your next cookout.

This vegetarian recipe makes a strong case for replacing a veggie burger with a slab of melty, salty cheese.

This flavorful lamb patty with lemony yogurt sauce is guaranteed to spice up your burger routine. 

This gnocchi (Is it pasta? Is it a salad?) with a jammy cherry tomato sauce takes just 25 minutes and one pan.

A laid-back risotto (not an oxymoron!) in a summer state of mind.

The best part about grilling ground chicken is that you can mix in as much garlic, herbs, and spices as you wish. (Also, cheese!)

Fried eggs, pico de gallo, melty cheese, and refried beans, all piled atop crusty bread.

These light and eggy cheese puffs are channeling your favorite bar snack.

This salad is a textural dream—creamy Tepary beans, sturdy dandelion greens, crumbly goat cheese—but our favorite part might be the bright cranberry-sumac dressing.

Did somebody say fried cheese? Halloumi drizzled with honey and aromatic thyme makes for an ideal sweet-salty-crunchy appetizer.

Tangy sour cherries meet sweet and pillowy cheesecake in the ultimate spring-to-summer dessert.

Making fresh dumpling wrappers isn't hard when you have Hetty McKinnon to guide you. (But we won't tell if you use store-bought.)

Chef Preeti Mistry’s Bombay Sandwich is like a “grown-up grilled cheese,” made with jammy onions, potatoes, melty Monterey Jack, tangy cheddar, and Scallion Chutney.

A cross between fondue and artichoke dip, and you don’t even need a fondue pot to make it happen.

Don’t rush the cooking process on this one. Moderate heat allows the cheese inside to fully melt without burning the outsides.

Just when we were starting to run out of ideas for what to make for lunch at home, these melty broccoli toasts appeared.

Silky Swiss chard, briny pops of mustard-macerated onions, sharp cheddar, chunks of sausage, and crushed pretzels mingle in this ode to the flavors found at beer gardens.
