I’m obsessed with Food Network lately. With my travel scheduling being as crazy as it’s been this summer when I’m home on the weekend, I love to turn on the Food Network and watch for hours (or at least until I make myself get up)…
I adore The Pioneer Woman, the new Valerie Bertinelli show, and mostly… The Kitchen.
If you haven’t seen this show, you really should. It features FIVE Food Network stars, and each of them brings their recipes, unique personality, and fun to the show!
Last weekend, GZ cooked up these tomatoes… and I had to give them a go.
