Quick and Easy Apple Tart

The secret to Ree's speedy dessert is a store-bought timesaver: prepared puffed pastry. By using that as the base of her tart, she can get right to the layering of the apples before quickly baking.

Beth's Brisket

An all-in-one meal featuring tender beef, earthy mushrooms and sweet carrots, Ree's big-batch recipe is gently simmered in a savory broth laced with equal parts Worcestershire, soy sauce and vinegar.

Cheesy Cauliflower Soup

Similar to potato soup in that it's creamy and decadent, Ree's cauliflower-based soup is filled with Monterey Jack cheese, which melts well into the cauliflower puree.

Simple, Perfect Chili

Ideal for game-day tailgates and casual dinners alike, Ree's smoky chili features a base of ground beef and two beans, which guarantee texture as well as heft.

Pumpkin Gingersnap Cheesecake

Follow Ree's lead and ditch the usual graham cracker crust; use a base of crushed gingersnap cookies instead. The spicy sweetness pairs well with the rich, creamy filling featuring smooth pumpkin puree and tangy cream cheese. For over-the-top decadence, she serves the cheesecake with a buttery salted caramel topping.

Chicken Spaghetti

With a 5-star rating, Ree's hearty casserole is a fan-favorite pick. It's made with shredded chicken, spaghetti and colorful bell peppers — and some cheese, of course — so it's an entire meal served in one casserole dish.

Applesauce

If a trip to the orchard has left you with a plethora of apples, turn them into applesauce in a flash. Ree's top-rated recipe features a dash of cinnamon for subtle warmth.

Macaroni and Cheese

Once you put together Ree's silky-smooth mac and cheese, it's up to you to decide if you want to eat it straight from the stove or go one step further and bake it beneath a blanket of cheddar for even gooier results.

Perfect Potato Soup

By building her comforting soup in the same pot in which she fries bacon pieces, Ree guarantees a subtly smoky flavor base in the finished product. She finishes each bowl with those crispy bacon bits, plus grated cheese.

Skillet Apple Crisp

Unlike pie, which requires the careful rolling of dough, crisps and crumbles are fuss-free. Ree simply creates a flour-butter mixture with sugar and fragrant spices, then sprinkles it atop a skillet full of sweetened apple slices.

Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

Canned pumpkin puree lends both subtle sweetness and a vibrant orange hue to the dough for Ree's rolls. She fills these tender beauties with plenty of butter, plus a spiced cinnamon-sugar mixture studded with chopped pecans for welcome crunch.
