During the week of May 2nd - May 7th, each of our creators will be taking turns hosting a TikTok Live sharing some favorite and creative ideas to inspire you to create a fun and creative Mother’s Day Brunch for folks with all cooking abilities.

The traditional Italian American version of this Easter Ham Pie was something of a “must have” in our house growing up. In fact I can distinctly remember it being my job every year to dice up all the meats in cheese in preparation of the making of it.

The original of recipe, as far as I can tell dates back to the late 70s, early 80sin some of the cookbooks I found.  My version reflects some of my favorite flavors; “Everything but the bagel” style seasoning, goat cheese, bacon, parmesan cheese, and red pepper flakes.

A pal recently send me a box of winter citrus fruit from my garden. I don’t like to waste anything so decided this would be a great chance to make some marmalade and freeze. I use this particular marmalade as a topping but it also is great added to the slow cooker or instance with chicken or pork. The sweet-bitter blend mellows further and compliments the meats and vegetables well. There are many versions of this so as with any fruit based dishes, you will need to adjust for sweetness based on the fruit and natural sugars

No matter how you feel about Chick-fil-a, you must make this dressing.

You may be thinking how do I start eating healthier and more aware. I am sharing a few tips that I use to help keep the weight in check and keep my energy up without feeling deprived.

This is casual recipe that I grew up with which can be made with meatless, with meat or even canned tuna. It was a common dish for us on Fridays or when cash was a little low.

Once upon a time, there was a wise and benevolent Queen. Her Majesty Erica ruled her rangoondom with a gentle but stern hand, but with any monarch of her stature, she was so easily irritated before her morning joe. So enters Clinton, son of Svatos. (He must’ve known this..right??)

Grandma Jackson’s Rum Cake; My Grandma Jackson was known about the community for her cornbread and her cakes. She would happily share either one with you, but she would never give you the recipe.

Before I moved to the Fort Smith, Arkansas area, Joey always cooked special foods for me when I visited, which was at least once a month. His tacos were one of my very favorite meals. It still is!
