Get a subscription to https://cooking.nytimes.com/. I know it sounds crazy to pay for recipes when there are so many free cooking websites and youtube channels, but everything is tested and the instructions are clear for beginning cooks. There are whole sections for weeknight meals, chicken, pasta, vegetarian, etc. And thousands of recipes in the database so you'll never run out. Source: 9 months ago

From there I'll go to America's Test Kitchen, NYTimes Cooking, and Milk Street. Milk Street is the (relatively) new project from Chris Kimball, who used to head ATK and has more of a focus on everyday cooking and international cuisine and has produces a few gems for me (and is also an absolutely excellent place to buy supplies and tools).

NY Times cooking — Another subscription service, but you can create a free account. Also, try refreshing the page and spamming the ESC key on PC right before the prompt to log-in pops up. They have some very famous recipes, including one for chocolate chip cookies (seriously, make this one!), no-knead bread, and many others. Source: 12 months ago

Add Simply Recipes and New York Times Cooking (although with that one, you only get a certain number of recipes for free each month, then you have to pay.) I do pay for New York Times because I found myself using their recipes so often that I was running out of free ones each month. They publish really good, solid recipes. Source: over 1 year ago

If you're used to eating burgers, Impossible Foods makes awesomely meaty tasting plant-based burgers. Burger King uses them to make their "Impossible Whoppers," and a lot of people who like meat say they can't even tell the difference. Seriously they taste amazing. The mayo Burger King puts on them has eggs in it though, but you can order an Impossible Whopper without mayo and then add a vegan mayo substitute... Source: 11 months ago

Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat are widely regarded as making the most realistic meat substitutes for people who like the taste of animal meat, and they are plant-based, but they are not whole food plant-based. Source: 12 months ago

I agree. I used to be quite flustered that the "meat offering" in Lev. 2 (KJV) does not even contain any meat. Kind of like our plant-based "impossible meat" today 🤣. Source: over 1 year ago
