34 TikTok Recipes That Are Totally Worth The Hype

We can't believe we never thought to swap out our cooking oil of choice for pesto before! It makes SO much sense—once heated, the basil, pine nuts, and Parm in pesto fry up crispy and nutty, deepening their earthy flavors. Combine that with the perfection of an egg in a hole, and you’ve got yourself a special, next-level breakfast that comes together fast.

If you thought a can of White Claw was perfect on its own, you haven't given it a whirl in your blender.

This TikTok number has taken breakfast tables by storm, and for good reason.

Back in 2020, the Internet went crazy over Gigi Hadid's recipe for spicy vodka pasta. In a series of Instagram stories, she taught us how to transform tomato paste into a rich, creamy sauce that rivals the famous $32 version at NYC's Carbone. TikTok went crazy for them, so we created our own! The secret to the delicious recipe? Turn caramelized onions into your creamy, Parm-filled sauce.

These TikTok famous muffins are cheesy, herb-studded, and more like a savory scone or biscuit in texture than your average muffin. The muffin itself is fantastic, and we wouldn't be upset to eat it all on its own, but add a perfectly soft-boiled egg inside, and we're OBSESSED.

Although birria can be served in countless ways, we love making trending quesatacos stained red with the fat of the meat and seared until almost crispy. This helps melt the queso oaxaca and create what is essentially a mini quesadilla. What's not to love?

Bella Hadid's prosciutto pasta looks incredible in the TikTok, but how does it actually taste in real life? Is it better than her sister's recipe? In the spirit of scientific experimentation, we decided to put it to the test. The verdict? It's delicious.

TikTok has been taken over by a new food sensation, and this time it's…an enormous sandwich. Grinder is the New England name for what you might call a sub, hoagie, or hero, and our favorite of them all is the Italian combo . The two things that set the TikTok recipe apart from a typical Italian sub: 1) Though it's typically served cold, this version is toasted, so the cheese gets nice and melty and the cured meats get slightly crispy. 2) The grinder salad itself (hint: it's got non-traditional mayo in it!).

ICYMI: Chocolate molds are filled with homemade hot cocoa mix and marshmallows that explode after being dropped into hot milk. Although theyare extremely fun to watch unfold, it's not just a novelty thing. The melted chocolate, along with the hot chocolate mix, makes the creamiest drink.

Made with a base of phyllo dough, the "viral crinkle dessert" emerges from the oven a crispy, sweet, custard-covered, GORGEOUS delight. Our take tastes like the love child of a kringle and baklava, with just a hint of cinnamon-spiked sticky bun.

We know some folks might prefer not to mix booze and beer, but we think, with the right combinations, it can be a match made in heaven. Why do we love this tequila sunrise-inspired trend? It's genius, simple to make, and looks gorgeous. Bonus: using the bottle means you don't need to dirty up any extra dishes for mixing!

This is essentially a deconstructed watermelon and feta salad. Slice the biggest round of watermelon you can, top with crumbled feta, red onion slices, torn basil, and balsamic. Slice into pizza-like triangles, and then post your photo to TikTok!

When we came across the visual of chocolate-covered strawberries in the shape of mini roasted turkeys on TikTok, we knew we had to try it. The trend seems to have started last year, with people taking strawberries, mini marshmallows, pretzel sticks, and melted chocolate and, with a little magic, transforming them into mini roasted turkeys. They are honestly so cute, we kind of want to make a chocolate-covered version of the whole Thanksgiving table.

The Baked By Melissa vegan green goddess salad video has garnered 19 million views on TikTok and has started a serious cult following. We loved her original recipe so much, we did a Greek/Mediterranean twist on it, including a bit of crumbled feta to the salad to add a brine-y, cheesy bite!

With more than four million followers on TikTok, vegan chef Tabitha Brown created the wholesome community we all so desperately needed in 2020. (Yes, some of her followers even call her "mom.") Tabitha shared one of her favorite taco recipes with us and invited her daughter, Choyce, along—but when we asked for specific measurements, she said "she cooks from the heart" and doesn't include. So channel your inner-Tabitha and don’t worry about exact amounts!

It might sound wild, but it really works: Cooking zucchini low and slow for 4-5 hours turns it into a “mush” that’s surprisingly delicious, substantial, and best of all, simple. As Meghan Markle said, "The sauce gets so creamy, you'd swear there's tons of butter and oil in it, but it's just zucchini, water, and a little bouillon."

Get the Zucchini Bolognese recipe.

We're going to let you in on a little secret—you can whisk pretty much anything if you combine it with heavy cream! Here, we take a queue from food blogger Valentina Mussi and whip our childhood fave—strawberry milk powder—into a fluffy cloud of fruity goodness. Move over, Dalgona!

We didn't think we needed a new way to eat sweet corn, but TikTok convinced us with these "ribs". After a quick trip to the oven, these spiced cobs get crispy on the outside and sweet and juicy on the inside. Plus, they're fun to eat!

What is a hot dog board exactly? It's an easy way to turn the cookout staple into a fun "charcuterie" board for your party to build and top their own dogs—because, let's face it, everyone likes their dogs a different way!
