So I moved out recently and discovered I pretty much only know how to prepare scrambled eggs and smoothies.
I’ve been trying to find cool cooking resources online, but most feel like are just either clickbait or advertising me a lot of garbage (that vibe reminds me of toxic fitness channels).
Any good resources you guys may know? It doesn’t necessarily have to be YouTube channels, extra points if it has beginner level recipes, easily findable ingredients or it’s funny to follow. Thanks! :)
It has had it’s rise and fall, but Bon Appétit has a ton of great videos, both for instructions and entertainment.

A few years ago, a lot of the chefs came together in some sort of union against the leadership with pretty ugly claims, resulting in most of the chefs leaving Bon Appétit. I’m not sure what the current situation is, maybe we’re morally supposed to stay away from the channel?
Anyways, I love the old videos with Brad Leone, Molly Baz, Claire Saffiz and several others. The videos beyond the major resignation has a completely different feel to it, so I haven’t been following the channel a lot since that.
Clair Saffiz now has Her own channel and some of the other former Bon Appetit chefs appear in her videos. Most of them are pretty nice informative cooking videos, but she does occasionally do the “Clair has a mental breakdown while trying to cook something” format like with her gingerbread house video
