A great way to start the holiday weekend is to fire up the grill. I read the NY Times foods section this Wednesday on: 101 Fast Recipes for Grilling by Mark Bittman, author of several cookbooks, contributor to the NY Times and was inspired! I have long enjoyed the energy he provides his readers and cooking enthusiast of all categories. In fact his cookbook “How to Cook Everything” is a purchase I have gifted to several friends who have started their own personal culinary journey in their kitchen’s (after taking a class or two with me)! The book provides a defined foundation in every category you would like to explore with food.

Anyway, the point today is the topic of grilling and having 101 Fast Recipes as a guide is worth the review. If anything, it can help you to be creative and more importantly provide examples on how to keep it simple while you’re at the grill. One of the things I like best about the article is that each grouping is uncomplicated enough to comprehend & make you a star of your grill. Especially if you have a repertoire of your own grilling practices that you know are family favorites. So follow the link below

Thanks – enjoy…
