If the rumors are true, our wallets are thankful.

We always listen to the Barefoot Contessa.

While Ina Garten, television star and author of cookbooks like Go-To Dinners and Modern Comfort Food, might have a reputation for making complicated recipes, we’ll let you in on a little secret: one of the reasons why we love the Barefoot Contessa so much is that many of her recipes are actually really easy to make. She knows how to work magic with a handful of ingredients, and because she’s such a rigorous recipe tester, she often finds ways to simplify cooking processes that have been needless…

While we *would* literally trust Ina Garten with our lives, usually, we can keep things low-stakes and simply rely on her for trustworthy advice on all things cooking-related. Her cookbooks, television shows, and website offer a plethora of recipes, tips, and tricks that make life in the kitchen easier.

She’s the business-savvy cooking show host that makes every meal seem effortless, turning even the simplest meals (like roast chicken) into something worthy of celebration. Garten lives in the Hamptons, which are most well known for their summer soirees but come September, things start to cool down. Soon enough, the leaves are changing and cold ocea…

Fall is officially here, and that means it’s finally time for our favorite cooking season of the year to be fully embraced. Once the weather turns crisp enough to break out our boots and sweaters, we’re oh-so-happy to cover up the grill and ditch the cold salads and popsicles of summer in favor of warm, cozy, and hearty dishes that fill the house with nostalgic aromas from the oven as the wind whips and howls outside. On those cold nights, nothing quite hits the spot like the meals many of us at…

From weeknight bolognese to truffle butter tagliatelle, Ina does it all.
