Virtual Cookbook - Recipes for Your Family

By Jodi Lorence, Macaroni Kid Publisher May 12, 2020

With the COVID-19 pandemic it seems as though at home cooking became increasingly more necessary. During the at home orders, I started exploring new recipes with having leftovers in mind. It definitely helped with ideas for the following day's lunch. It seemed as though I lived in the kitchen most of the day but my family had good food to eat.  We have definitely found some new favorites. I would love to add your recipes to my Virtual Cookbook if you would like to share them. Just a quick picture of your finished meal and a recipe and I will add your recipe to my website and Virtual Cookbook. You can email recipes to jodil@macaronikid.com if you are interested. Stay Well.
