Cooking for a Cause

We had our premier this week as Guest Chefs at the Ronald McDonald House here in Portland.  Volunteers in the Guest Chef provide home cooked meals for the families staying at the house. Tom & I will be Chef-ing once a month and we're really excited to be combining our love of cooking with such a great cause.

We kept it pretty simple for our first menu - baked ziti, salad and plain and (of course) garlic bread. Since the families come back to the house at different times, we wanted to have something that would stay warm and be easily re-heated. It feels good to be able to provide warm and tasty meal for the families at RMH.

We already have some ideas for our next meal, mac-n-cheese being a leading contender - especially while we're still in mac-n-cheese season here in Maine. Truthfully though, other than our 3 hot summer days a year is there anytime that mac-n-cheese not great?
