Healthy, homemade popcorn, five ways.

Panchos Argentinos (Argentine-Style Hot Dogs)

This Argentinian staple is typically topped with mayonnaise, mustard, and chimichurri. We swapped out the chimichurri for a fresh salsa criolla, which takes just minutes to make.

These delicious crisp, cheesy snacks are perfect for entertaining and parties. Serve them with a glass of wine and a bowl of olives or as savory dippers for tzatziki.

Smoky Eggplant Dip

If you don’t have a grill or a gas stovetop, you can broil the eggplants in the oven, turning occasionally, until charred and tender.

A splash of vanilla and honey give this everyday smoothie just the right amount of sweetness.

Spiced Quinoa and Chickpea Bites

Inspired by the flavors of kefta, these protein-packed vegetarian bites are equally good tucked into a pita or served on their own.

This classic recipe from the Gourmet archives is waffle perfection. Make them for Father’s Day so Dad can fill each crevice with butter and syrup, cream and berries, or—if he’s that kind of dad—barbecue sauce and bacon.

Spinach and Artichoke Melts

Your favorite creamy dip—but in a form you (and your kids) can happily eat for dinner. Serve with a salad of bitter greens and a bright vinaigrette.
