I love https://smittenkitchen.com/. Deb Perelman's three Smitten Kitchen cookbooks are all excellent. Her recipes are full of strong, bright flavors and lots of veggies. She is a perfectionist who tests her recipes repeatedly, eliminating steps until she's sure that every step and ingredient is necessary for flavor. You know she'll never make you do a step that's not absolutely necessary for the dish. Not all of her recipes are quick, easy weeknight meals, but many of them are, and she's up front about how long things actually take (no saying you can caramelize onions in 15 minutes, for example). She's a home cook in a tiny New York City apartment with a tiny kitchen, with no space for single-use appliances. So none of her recipes require fancy tools or equipment. I go back to her recipes over and over again.
