Two former personal chefs turned best friends share their expertise with each other and you! Kari and Sonya have been inspiring each other in the kitchen for over 15 years by swapping recipes, tips, and trade secrets in the pursuit of better home cooking. FOOD FRIENDS is a bi-weekly podcast inspiring home cooks to try new dishes in the kitchen by sharing trusted recipes, tips, and friendship. Every Tuesday, each host delivers 3 unique solutions to seasonal home cooking, like: how to make craveable soups with your farmers market haul, the easiest one-pot meals for busy nights, or what to do with leftover rotisserie chicken. On Thursdays, we serve up a pint-sized chat about our “Best Bite” of the week, pantry essentials we can’t live without, and more. Previous guests include Seth & Lauren Rogen, actor Randall Park & writer/director Evan Goldberg, recipe developer Justine Doiron, #1 Food & Beverage Substacker Caroline Chambers, and more. If you’re looking for a boost of fun in the kitchen by discovering recipes that will make mealtime easier and more delicious… ## Machine-readable JSON: https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/food-friends-home-cooking-made-easy-5775849 Markdown: https://stenobird.com/podcast/food-friends-home-cooking-made-easy-5775849.md ## Episodes - [A 10-Minute Dessert from Cookbook Club + A Lemony Pasta with Greens | Our Best Home Cooking Bites](https://stenobird.com/podcast/food-friends-home-cooking-made-easy-5775849/a-10-minute-dessert-from-cookbook-club-a-lemony-pasta-with-greens-our-best-home-cooking-bites) — 2026-07-09T09:00:00+00:00 - [What Do You Do With All The Zucchini?
