Cheesy Zucchini Crisps with Chef Jack
The goal for these cheesy zucchini crisps was to have a semi-healthy snack for the boys after their first week at camp. Due to the coronavirus, it's been since March since the boys have been in a "formal" setting among other people. While I am so grateful for the...
McDaniel’s Short-Cuts | Summer Corn Soup with Fresh Herbs
There is nothing better in the summer than fresh, I mean, frozen corn soup. What? Well, hey! This is a short-cut recipe, and shucking and removing corn isn't easy + it's messy. Honestly, the real reason I used corn was means to use up the gigantic bag of frozen corn I...

Sometimes I forget how much I appreciate pesto - especially our latest creation: spinach pesto. Not only can the spread itself have several variations, but just a dollop of pesto can elevate the ordinary scrambled eggs or everyday turkey sandwich. Traditional pesto...
Quarantine Snack | Kale Chips
