📅 Food Holidays

We celebrate a couple of fun food holidays this week. They're silly little holidays but it gives us an opportunity to make some memories and have some fun!

  • June 26 Chocolate Pudding Day
  • July 1 National Gingersnaps Day

🍹This week's cocktail

A pink cocktail in an on the rocks glass.

Durango

The Durango cocktail is similar to a Paloma with tequila and grapefruit juice but this has Amaretto to smooth it out. Unique and delish!

💭 Tips for success

  • Get a big bag of chicken breast at Costco and cook it all at once. Use the cooked chicken for the chicken spaghetti, the chicken salad, and the chicken empanadas.
  • When you make the easy baguettes make enough to go with the chicken spaghetti, the rigatoni ragu, and the shrimp po'boys. If you are going to buy baguettes be sure to get them all at once. They'll freeze if you are worried about them getting moldy.
  • Get enough green beans for the salad and southern green beans. They are best fresh.
  • I like to make a big batch of snickerdoodle dough and form it into balls and then flash freeze them right on the cookie sheet. When they're frozen put them in a freezer container with parchment between layers. Whenever you want cookies roll in cinnamon sugar and bake!
  • If there are leftover snickerdoodles make ice cream sandwiches with them!!!

Rigatoni with Ragu Sauce

This easy ragu sauce simmers all day in the slow cooker and by the time you're ready to eat it is absolute perfection. We like it with rigatoni but shells are good, too! Serve with a baguette from earlier in the week.
