Cheese Days Ahead


June 4th is a day to celebrate in your kitchen with easy, cheesy dishes! I always find ways to let cheese creep into my recipes, slowly but surely. Take a walk on the cheesy side with a few of my favorite dishes that answer the call of your Cheese Day cravings!

Cozy Cravings

Soup happens! This easy, hearty soup is perfect for those impromptu dinners when you need something cozy and cheesy. Happily, the base is easy to get started and the soup will accommodate whatever cheese you have on hand.

Ravioli Remix

Too much chicken? Leftovers for what feels like days? Make these on a day when your chicken overrunneth. You can store your extra ravioli in a single layer in a resealable plastic bag in the freezer, making this a recipe remix with a cheesy twist that is as efficient as it is delicious!

Parmesan Magic

A cast-iron skillet. Thick slices of eggplant. A ladleful of marinara sauce and a double-topping of cheese. Take advantage of your favorite variety of eggplant using this simple frying technique to create a super Italian-inspired dish and make eggplant parm magic tonight!

Cheese and crackers are my go-to food when the tummy rumbles and that fasting headache emerges. What happens next is that cheese begins to sneak its way into my dish. I love cheese on my scrambled eggs, cheese in my salad, and of course, cheese in my chicken dinner.
