Want to make some cookie magic this upcoming baking season and create some buzz?

This time on Food for Body, Mind and Spirit we’re exploring Timeless Classic Cookies Reimagined, and it seems to me, America’s Test Kitchen has been having a fun time creating the go-to resource we all need now.
I sat down (virtually) with Stephanie Pixley, deputy food editor of ATK’s books team, and culinary producer of Cook’s Country. She’s the kind of person who lights up talking about baking projects, and she walked me through The New Cookie, their brand-new collection that takes everything we love about traditional cookies and gives them a fresh, modern glow-up.

There’s something special about gathering around a beautifully arranged board of food; the colors, the textures, the shared laughter as everyone shares it together. In her newest book, Celebration Boards: 50 Creative Boards to Turn Any Occasion into a Celebration, bestselling author and entertaining expert Maegan Brown (better known as The BakerMama) shows us that those joyful moments don’t have to wait for big holidays or milestones. This fourth book in her beloved series continues the fun, festive trend she helped popularize. It offers approachable, family-friendly boards, which we can’t wait to make and try. In our conversation, Maegan shares the love she expresses in her creations, and we’re excited to give you a closer look at four of her newest boards; just in time for those autumn get-togethers too.

In the mountains of Lebanon, there is a house called Beit Trad and food is never just about sustenance. It is a memory made edible, a quiet thread that carries stories from one generation to the next. Sarah Trad’s new book, A House in the Lebanese Mountains: Recipes & Stories from Beit Trad, invites us into that world. It is a place of light, generosity, and the enduring pleasure of gathering around a table.

We are privileged to share four recipes from this beautiful book: simple Peas and Carrots, a comforting Beef Stew, a fragrant Bulgur Pilaf, and a bright Lemon Lentil Soup. Each one reflects the spirit of a home where traditions live on through the act of cooking and sharing. Here we are bringing it to yours.
