This week, we're listening back to some of our favorite tips to make you a better cook, including Chris Prosperi's trick for preparing your whole dinner in a rice cooker. It's possible! Plus the gang shares tips for using a mandolin to prep ingredients for salads and slaws; as well as a fast, easy recipe for garlic-lemon shrimp and grits. Instant grits are the "cheater" ingredient that make this a quick weeknight meal. Finally, we call out, "Table for one," loud and proud. Cookbook author Klancy Miller joins us to talk about her book, Cooking Solo. It's all about the joy of cooking for yourself. Klancy shares recipes for a salmon pasta dish (it uses up leftovers!), and Polenta with Shiitake Mushrooms. She shares her Orange Blossom and Almond Cake, too, because, well. . .you have to have friends over!
