Which scent do you prefer? I love the smell of fresh cut grass in the spring, but in the summer, I prefer the smell of coconut scented suntan lotion! www.tiny.cc/pccm

July 5 - National Graham Cracker Day

When Sylvester Graham first invented the slightly sweetened cracker, he intended it as a health food. In the early 1800s, the Presbyterian minister developed the cracker as part of his "Graham Diet" program. They were made from whole wheat graham flour with added bran and wheat germs. He believed his snack would curb sinful cravings.

Today, makers use bleached white flour and blend a variety of flavors including honey, cinnamon, and chocolate. They also come in smaller bite-size snacks and fun shapes.

While a delicious snack on their own, they also make terrific ingredients for desserts. Crushed graham crackers blended with butter and pressed into pie tins, or springform pans make excellent crusts when lightly toasted. Graham crackers layered between yogurt and fruit taste delicious in a parfait. When it comes to crumb toppings, oats, brown sugar, butter, and crushed graham crackers blended together and lightly toasted will always satisfy.

Coconut-Lime Icebox Cake
Prep 15 min | Ready in 15 min

Fresh lime and sweet, creamy filling make this lime coconut icebox cake a breath of fresh air.

Ingredients
½ cup (125 mL) sweetened shredded coconut
2 limes
2 pkgs (8 oz./266 g each) cream cheese, softened
1 cup (250 mL) sugar
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract
2 cups (500 mL) heavy cream
⅔ pkg (14 oz./408 g) honey graham crackers (about 16), divided
Optional: Lime zest, lime wedges, or mint
Directions
Evenly spread the coconut onto a large microwave-safe plate. Microwave until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes, stirring after every 30 second interval. Cool completely.

Zest and juice the limes into a medium mixing bowl. Add the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla. Beat with a hand mixer until smooth.

In a large mixing bowl, whip the cream on medium or high speed until stiff peaks form. Fold in the cream-cheese mixture.

Break half of the graham crackers into pieces and lay them on the bottom of the Rectangular Cool & Serve. Spread half of the cream cheese mixture over the crackers. Repeat with the remaining crackers and cream-cheese mixture. Top with coconut, and, if you’d like, lime zest, lime wedges, or mint.

Chill, covered, for at least 3 hours or overnight before serving.

May your 4th be spent with family and friends. Happy Independence Day

07/04/2025

Three presidents, all Founding Fathers—John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe—died on July 4. Presidents Adams and Jefferson also died the same year, 1826; President Monroe died in 1831. Coincidence? You decide.

July 4 - Caesar Salad Day

Using a raw (or coddled) egg and Worcestershire sauce as the main ingredients, Chef Caesar Cardini developed a salad that has stood the test of time. He added parmesan, dijon mustard, and lemon juice for brightness. A dash of salt brings all the flavors together. Beautifully, the ingredients rest on a bed of romaine lettuce with croutons. Once garnished with freshly grated parmesan, the salad is ready to be served. Considering it is found on nearly 50 percent of the restaurant menus across the country, it is served with frequency.

Grilled Caesar Salad
Prep 20 min | Ready in 25 min

This hearty main dish spin on Caesar salad includes cannellini beans. Grilled romaine lettuce hearts make for a stunning presentation.

Ingredients
Vinaigrette
1/3 cup (75 mL) olive oil
1/4 cup (50 mL) fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp (15 mL) Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
1/4 tsp (1 mL) coarsely ground black pepper
Salad
1 can (15.5 oz or 540 mL) cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup (250 mL) grape tomatoes, halved
2 tbsp (30 mL) chopped fresh parsley
2 romaine lettuce hearts
1 large red onion
4 slices (1/2 in./1 cm thick) French bread
1 oz (30 g) Parmesan cheese
Directions
Prepare grill for direct cooking over medium-high heat. For vinaigrette, whisk together ingredients in Small Batter Bowl. For salad, combine beans, tomatoes, parsley and 3 tbsp (45 mL) of the vinaigrette in Classic Batter Bowl; toss to coat and set aside.

Cut romaine hearts in half horizontally with Santoku Knife, keeping cores intact. Wash lettuce (see Cook's Tip). Cut onion crosswise into 1-inch-thick (2.5-cm) slices. Brush lettuce and onion slices with remaining vinaigrette using Chef's Silicone Basting Brush.

Grill onion slices 3 minutes or until grill marks appear. Turn using BBQ Tongs or BBQ Spatula. Add lettuce and bread slices; grill 2-3 minutes or until grill marks appear and edges are slightly charred, turning occasionally. Remove from grill.

Slice bread into 1/2-in. (1-cm) cubes. Place romaine halves onto serving plates. Top with bean mixture, onion rings and bread cubes. Grate Parmesan cheese over each serving using Rotary Grater.

Cook's Tips:
Look for firm, tightly packed romaine hearts, which hold up best for grilling. Grill the lettuce just until grill marks appear in order to impart a smoky flavor while keeping it crisp.

To wash lettuce, cut romaine hearts in half and rinse under cold running water without separating the leaves. Gently shake out excess water and place lettuce, cut side down, onto clean kitchen towels until mostly dry. Excess water will steam the lettuce.

Cannellini beans are white kidney beans. If desired, Great Northern beans can be substituted for the cannellini beans.

July 3 - National Eat Beans Day

Though the exact date and reason for National Eat Beans Day being made a holiday are not known, we do know that the history of the bean itself predates even the invention of the pots used to cook beans. Bean cultivation dates back as early as 7,000 years ago, making it a staple that has stood the test of time, and we’re not surprised.

Beans are originally from wild vines which grow in Central and South America. This is known as the common bean, and since then, thousands of bean varieties exist today and are cultivated all over the world. They are one of the most versatile crops and can be grown almost anywhere.

Here's one of my FAVORITE bean recipes:
White Bean, Kale & Chicken Sausage Stew
Prep 10 min - Ready in 30 min

This stew is hearty, healthy comfort food that's perfect for a chilly evening.

Ingredients
3 tbsp (45 mL) oil, divided
2 links sweet Italian chicken sausage, sliced
1 medium onion, chopped
2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced (or 8–10 baby carrots)
3 celery stalks, sliced
2 tbsp (30 mL) Garlic Rub, divided
1 can (14.5 oz./411 g) diced tomatoes (undrained)
1 can (15.5 oz./439 g) reduced-sodium cannellini (white kidney) beans, rinsed and drained
4 cups (1 L) low-sodium chicken broth
4–5 cups (1–1.25 L) chopped kale (about 1 bunch whole)
1 demi French bread loaf, cut or torn into bite-size pieces
Optional: Finely grated Parmesan cheese
Directions
Heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) of oil in a large pot over medium heat for 3–4 minutes. Add the chicken sausage. Cook until browned, 4–5 minutes. Remove the sausage from the pot.

Add the vegetables and cook until softened, 4–5 minutes.

Add tomatoes, beans, broth, and 1½ tbsp (22 mL) of rub and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 12–14 minutes.

Turn off the heat. Stir in the kale until slightly wilted, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken sausage.

Preheat the broiler and position your oven rack closest to the broiler. Combine the bread, remaining 2 tbsp (30 mL) of oil, and 1½ tsp (7 mL) of the rub in a medium bowl; toss well.

Transfer the bread pieces onto a baking sheet. Broil for 2 minutes or until golden, stirring once after 1 minute (watching closely).

Serve soup with croutons. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top, if you’d like.

Cook's Tips:
Easy Change-Ups
Vegetarian Option: You can omit the chicken sausage and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. It will still taste amazing!

Meat Substitutes: You can also swap the chicken sausage with ground turkey or ground turkey sausage.
