No-Fuss Baby Back Ribs

The name says it all here. Kardea marinates meaty ribs with a savory-sweet mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar and Worcestershire then bakes them until the meat is succulent and tender.

French Onion Grilled Cheese

Kardea slow cooks onions until they're soft and luxuriously sweet to deliver the classic taste of French onion soup to this super-gooey grilled cheese.

Seafood Mac and Cheese

This mac and cheese is not messing around: it's made with four different kinds of cheese! Kardea's secret is to add a bit of cream cheese, which creates the perfect texture.

Aunt TC's Lemon-Lime Soda Cake

Kardea is most proud to have mastered this favorite family recipe: a super-fluffy cake her aunt TC made for her growing up. Adding a bit of lemon lime soda to the batter helps the cake rise and gives it its fluffy texture.

Aunt TC's Potato Salad

Aunt TC still comes over to help Kardea make her famous Potato Salad. To make it she dresses up red potatoes and hard boiled-eggs with ingredients like yellow mustard and sweet pickle relish.

Rotisserie Chicken Salad Sandwiches

It's a good idea to let the chicken salad chill in the fridge for a few minutes before building the sandwiches. That'll ensure all the flavors have a chance to marry.

Charleston Chewies

To make sure these chewy cookies have crispy edges but stay gooey in the middle, Kardea makes them in small batches and uses an 8-inch square baking dish.
