"The Lord has blessed me with the gift to cook to give somebody else," said Gwen Baker. "To give back, to make a meal for someone who says they're in need."

It's in her name... Gwen Baker is no stranger to making food for her husband, kids, and grandkids.

But in the last couple years, she's been reaching out to strangers, many of whom she never meets, through a nonprofit called,
'Lasagna Love' .

'Lasagna Love' is an international nonprofit which was founded in 2020. It reports over 52,000 volunteers across 3 countries who've made 430,000+ lasagnas.

Anyone can request a lasagna through the official website . If there is a volunteer in their area, and the demand is able to be met, they can be slated to receive a meal.

Baker, who covers a 20-mile portion of New Castle County, Delaware, says they are always looking for more volunteers.

"People are in need, still," she said. "And if you can cook, will cook, use a recipe to cook to help somebody else out, I think you should."

These Ritz Cracker Sandwiches Vanish Before the Party Starts

Ritz Party Sandwiches transform familiar buttery crackers into warm, savory appetizers that are exactly the right size for grabbing from a crowded table. Cheese and flavorful sandwich fillings sit between pairs of crackers, creating miniature bites with a crisp exterior and rich center. As they bake, the cheese melts, the filling warms, and the crackers become even more aromatic without losing the delicate texture that makes Ritz crackers so recognizable. Each small sandwich delivers salt, butter, cheese, and savory flavor in one or two bites, which explains why people rarely stop after taking only one. The recipe does not require elaborate pastry, specialty bread, or hours of preparation, yet the completed tray looks more thoughtful than simply opening a box of crackers. It is party food built around convenience without tasting like the cook took an obvious shortcut.

Grandma Was Right About Potatoes and Onions

Sometimes the most memorable food begins with ingredients so ordinary that their transformation feels almost unfair. Southern Fried Taters and Onions take potatoes, sliced onion, garlic, oil, salt, and pepper and turn them into a skillet full of golden edges, tender centers, and deep savory flavor. As the potatoes cook, some pieces crisp against the hot pan while others remain soft enough to soak up the sweetness released by the onions. That mix of textures is what makes a simple recipe so hard to leave alone. Every serving contains a few crunchy bites, several buttery-soft slices, and caramelized onion tucked between them. No cream sauce, specialty cheese, or expensive meat is required to make the skillet smell like a proper country breakfast or old-fashioned family supper.
