It was a huge hit and it will definitely be going on our regular appetizer rotation! I made it with deli meat, cheese, finely diced veggies like onions and tomatoes, and a creamy dressing. This mix makes…

A Light Summer Treat For years I taught preschool for the Chicago Park District. There was a grandmother who used to make these Salami and Cheddar Beach Snacks for every classroom party. They were so simple, so delicious, didn’t cost a lot of money to make, and people went crazy for them. I was meeting a bunch of friends at the beach and I needed to bring a snack. That’s when I remembered these mini sandwiches that the grandma made. I whipped up a batch and they turned out to be the BEST thing to eat at the beach, or…

Meet Your New Favorite Sandwich Imagine, for a moment, that you’re opening up a picnic basket in a French park just outside of Paris. You hear an accordion playing romantic music as you pull the most amazing baguette sandwich out of your picnic basket. I watched a cooking show on the Food Network with my mother where they were making a sandwich similar to this and it inspired me to get to work. I love a salty sweet combination and the Ultimate Picnic Sandwich has all the components I love: great crunch, salty thinly sliced prosciutto, sweet cantaloupe, and peppery…

The Best of a Best Thing A grilled cheese seems pretty simple to make. That being said, I’ve sampled a lot of them and have had some pretty bad ones.

There will be a printable recipe card for the perfect grilled cheese at the end of this post but first you’ll want to read some necessary background information from my cheesy travels.

One of the best tips I was taught was how to cook bacon in your oven. Bacon can be tricky for even the best cooks. Anyone who has braved the continental breakfast bar knows the gamble you take when you approach the bacon tin. Sometimes it’s so overdone it could only be eaten crumbled over a baked potato. Other times it’s so chewy, you can’t eat it without worrying about the stomach ache you’ll be suffering later. Plus…
