Cooking the BEST Chicken Breast

September 14, 2017 by Lauren Schlothauer

I’m pretty sure you all know how I feel about chicken at this point. It can seem really hard to cook. A lot of people are mainly freaked out about how to cook a chicken breast safely which I completely get. But then, even after you’ve cooked it safely, sometimes it spurns you.

Where Does Milk Come From?

September 5, 2017 by Lauren Schlothauer

I know a lot of people absolutely love chocolate milk, (I prefer oval-tine mixed in with mine). But even if you don’t drink it straight most of us use it to cook pretty regularly.

How to Safely Cook a Chicken Breast

Raise your hand if you’ve ever felt personally victimized by a chicken breast. If you’re me, you should just wave your hands in the air.

Pick up any package of generic hot dogs in the store, and you may be wondering. These don’t have a nitrate/nitrite free claim on them. Does this mean they’re loaded with them? Labels concerning Antibiotics In Meat will probably have you feeling the same way and are literally just as confusing. The good news is you can clear that up here.
