Summer produce truly shines in this simple triple berry dessert. The recipe calls for a 9x13-inch dish, but you can easily portion this out into individual ramekins and reduce the baking time by about half. Freeze the leftovers so nothing will go to waste. Pro tip: make just four servings by reducing the amount of fruit by half and keeping the crisp ingredients the same, because we all know that sugary, crackly, buttery crisp topping is the best part.

Seitan’s dense and chewy texture makes it a perfect match for veganized popcorn chicken. While store-bought seitan is readily available in most supermarkets, it’s best to make your own with this recipe to get the chicken flavor just right. If you’re crunched for time, try to find a chicken-seasoned seitan at the store (such as Upton’s Naturals Chick Seitan). Once you have your base, the process is as simple as season, dredge, and fry until golden brown. “Addictive” doesn’t even begin to explain the pull of this delectably savory snack.

Can you improve on a classic? Yes, yes you can. The key is to keep the elements that make it marvelous while adding a dash of pizazz that complement not detract from a classic’s essence. In the case of the humble chocolate chip cookie, we’re keeping the ooey-gooey centers, gobs of chocolate, and crisp edges while tweaking the ingredients and preparation methods to create something truly to die for.

1. Add sea salt
The simplest addition can transform everyday afterschool treats into bakesale-worthy splurges. Sprinkling flaked sea salt over the tops of your cookies just before baking will amplify the cookie’s sweetness and create a harmonious flavor balance as the freshly-baked morsel melts in your mouth. In our humble opinion, a chocolate chip cookie is not complete without a few flecks of salt.
