When you think of cooking with cannabis, the first thing that comes to mind might be the ultimate classic — pot brownies. However, with the help of cannabutter and cannabis-infused olive oil, you can pull off plenty of other recipes, spanning from breakfast to dinner. Try your hand at cannabis-infused brioche French toast for a relaxing (and decadent) start to your morning or a soothing mug of cannabis-infused tea. For dinner, cannabis-infused pasta with clams and green chiles is a fun way to experiment in the kitchen. And if you're here for the brownies, don't worry, we have a recipe for those as well, plus blondies if you want to switch it up. Read on for our best cannabis recipes.

Note: As cannabis regulation continues to evolve across the United States and around the world, please consult your local laws.
