I’m on a fig kick because it’s they are in season. A few days ago I made a grilled fig and prosciutto flatbread which was so delicious I wanted more figgy goodness and so this recipe was born. You also HAVE to check out these warm figs with goat cheese, pistachios and balsamic glaze. A fig galette (or tart), doesn’t always have to be sweet. This galette is made savory with creamy brie and where the figs are slightly sweet, they are perfect pairing....

Everyone loves french toast, whether it’s served for breakfast or dessert. I personally love all variations of french toast, plain, with chocolate, fruit or marshmallows. All kinds of french toast! For the past few years, we’ve been making this on BBQs as we put this on the grill or barbecue and wait for the magic to happen. It has also been our go-to camping breakfast, as it’s so easy to make and the result is just divine!...

I’m the youngest of 5 kids, and every other year my family and I all get together for Christmas in the same house. (It’s like 25 people. I can’t even keep track.

It’s a similar method to a smoked turkey, however, grilling a turkey requires no flavored wood chips, so it has a more traditional roast turkey flavor. Cooking a turkey on the grill is actually really fun and other than basting a few times, it’s basically hands-off. It takes about 10 minutes of prep time and just a few simple ingredients for seasoning and that’s it! I highly recommend that you brine the turkey beforehand to really ensure added moisture and juicy meat, but it’s not all the way necessary to grill a turkey with bang-on results....
