Cheese Please

How do you make any dish even more delicious? Some would argue, just add cheese. To prove this point Sara’s got two recipes elevated by our favorite milk product: a French Onion Soup Burger topped with melty, gooey cheese and an equally gooey Alsatian Onion Pie with caramelized onions and melted Gruyere. Later, a visit to a dairy farm where the cows are treated like queens and a homemade ricotta.

Easy weeknight cooking takes strategy, and Sara has one of the best: cooking a dish one night, then repurposing it into a different meal for another night. Food entrepreneur Maya Kaimal joins Sara to make Turkey Keema with sweet potatoes and ground meat, which morphs into Indian stuffed peppers another night. Then Sara Sautee’s Duck Breasts for a quick meal. She uses those in a Peking Duck Wrap.
