Hi Reader, Basmati rice gets a flavorful upgrade in this easy baked pesto version. It starts on the stove with garlic, then the skillet goes right into the oven, so there’s no need to babysit a pot.

Hi Reader, I wait all year for asparagus season, and now that it’s here, these are the recipes I’ve been making on repeat lately.
