December 2025 Cooking Club Recipe

This month, we’re making my baked ziti with sausage . It’s a cozy recipe that is perfect for chilly December evenings. It comes together easily and is packed with flavor – I especially love the pesto topping.

Swaps to try: If you don’t eat meat, feel free to use plant-based sausage instead. And if you can’t find ziti in your grocery store, go ahead and use another short-shaped pasta.

The Prize: A $150 gift card!

One lucky winner will receive a $150 gift card. The winner will be notified via email.

December 1st: The recipe is announced and the first day you can submit your photo.

December 31st: The last day to enter this month’s Cooking Club Challenge.

January 1st: The winner will be contacted via the email provided when leaving a comment and submitting a photo.

Get excited about what you’re making!
