We’re Kelly and Stephanie, two friends who started a cooking club to make our dinners more exciting and now we’re inviting you to pull up a chair and join us. Here’s the deal: Every month, one of us picks a recipe. It could be a cozy family favorite, a new dish we’ve never tried, or something that pushes us out of our comfort zone. We each make it in our own kitchens, navigating grocery shopping adventures, ingredient swaps, and plenty of “learning moments” along the way. Then we get together to dish on: ~Why we chose it ~How the shopping went ~The steps that made us cheer, laugh, or groan ~The tweaks we’d try next time ~Whether it’s destined to become a weeknight staple or a one-time experiment That’s our main monthly episode, a recipe deep dive with real talk about what worked and what didn’t. The rest of the month, you’ll get short and snackable episodes filled with quick meal ideas, time-saving cooking tips, kitchen gadget finds, and simple recipes you can make anytime. Think of them as the side dishes to our main course. If you’re looking for a home cooking podcast that feels more like chatting with friends in the kitchen than watching a polished cooking show, you’re in the right place. We believe great food doesn’t have to be complicated, mistakes make the best stories, and every home cook deserves a little club of their own. So grab your spatula, pour yourself something tasty, and hit play. Welcome to Everyday Cooks Recipe Club where we’re sharing recipes, tips, and laughs one month at a time, with plenty of delicious detours along the way.https://everyday-cooks-recipe.captivate.fmfalseepisodic49061350-fe02-11f0-8614-8dd22b4d4460yespodcastFresh Fish Tacos And Roasted CauliflowerFresh Fish Tacos And Roasted CauliflowerIn this episode of Everyday Cooks Recipe Club, Stephanie layers the flavors in this crowd favorite: Tacos.

Kelly and Stephanie thought a great way to celebrate this rare event is by revisiting a recipe from Nini Nguyen’s cookbook Dac Biet - lemongrass-marinated pork chops. Nini is based in New Orleans. Her cookbook is a special blend of flavorful, inspired Vietnamese and New Orleans cooking.

In this episode, we talk about:

  1. Starting a recipe club
  2. Why we chose this recipe
  3. What it was like shopping for fresh lemongrass and the other key ingredients
  4. How each of us prepared the pork chops (and where we improvised!)
  5. Our honest thoughts on flavor, texture, and whether it’s worth making again

If you’ve ever been curious about cooking with lemongrass or you’re just looking for a fresh twist on pork chops, you’ll want to cook along with us!

The full recipe can be found in Nini Nguyen’s cookbook Dac Biet. We highly recommend checking it out anywhere books are sold.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • 10 Crock Pot tips for the best experience
  • We review the Beef and Bean Chili recipe below 
  • Stephanie gives us a bonus idea of cooking a whole chicken in the crock pot
  • How each of us prepared the meal (and where we improvised!)
  • Our honest thoughts on flavor, texture, and whether it’s worth making again

Resources & Links

https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/slow_cooker_beef_and_bean_chili/

Here are crock pot tips for beginners:

  1. Don’t Overfill It - Aim to fill the crock pot ½ to ⅔ full. Overfilling can cause uneven cooking, and under-filling can make food cook too fast.
  2. Layer Ingredients Wisely - Heavier, tougher ingredients (like root vegetables and meats) should go on the bottom, closest to the heat source. Lighter ingredients go on top.
  3. Brown Meat for Better Flavor (Optional) - While you can throw raw meat straight in, searing it first adds richer flavor and better texture.
  4. Keep the Lid Closed - Every time you open the lid, you lose heat and add 15–30 minutes to the cooking time. Peek only when necessary.
  5. Use the Right Amount of Liquid - Crock pots don’t let moisture escape. Use less liquid than you would on the stove—usually 1 cup or less unless you’re making soup.
  6. Choose “Low and Slow” When Possible - Most dishes turn out more tender and flavorful when cooked on Low for 6–8 hours vs. High for 3–4 hours.
  7. Add Dairy and Fresh Herbs at the End - Milk, cream, cheese, and fresh herbs can curdle or lose flavor if cooked too long. Stir them in during the last 15–30 minutes.
  8. Use Cheaper Cuts of Meat - The slow cooker excels with budget-friendly cuts like chuck roast, pork shoulder, chicken thighs. They become super tender with long cooking.
  9. Prep Ahead to Save Time - Chop veggies, measure spices, or assemble entire freezer-to-crock-pot bags the night before for easy morning cooking.
  10. Clean Up Easily - Use crock pot liners or fill the pot with warm soapy water right after dinner to avoid stuck-on food.

Here is the soup recipe Kelly talks about in the episode, but she always doubles the recipe.  This is also one of those recipes that you can “eyeball” and you don’t need to strictly follow the quantities.  So make it how you want! 

Creamy Ham and Broccoli Soup

4 t butter

4 t flour

1 can chicken broth or stock

1 c chopped broccoli

2 T chopped onion

1 c chopped ham

⅛ tsp fresh thyme

¾ shredded swiss cheese

Chop your broccoli and ham and put to the side.  Prepare your thyme and swiss cheese if you didn’t buy shredded swiss cheese.  Melt your butter in a sauce pan and mix in the flour to incorporate.  Slowly stir in the chicken broth (or stock).  Bring to a boil (about 2 minutes).  Stir in broccoli and onion. Then add the ham.  Stir in the cream and thyme.  The last step is to stir in the swiss cheese.

Small Bites Episode 2In this episode of Everyday Cooks Recipe Club, Kelly talks about a healthy and versatile dish she often makes: baked apples.  This dish couldn’t be easier to make and the baked apples can be used as a snack, on pancakes or even on top of ice cream.  

In this episode, we talk about:

  • How you can prepare this dish in 5-7 minutes
  • The various mix-ins you can add
  • The different ways you can serve this dish

You can make this dish spicy or sweet, but it is one your family will love and you will feel good about feeding it to your family. The best part is you can make this dish in real life faster than you can listen to this episode!
