Rachael Ray Roundup

Happy Friday, everyone!  This week's menu plan turned out very well.  I was wondering if my toddler would accept mac and cheese made with brie and gruyere, but like her mommy, any cheese is good cheese.  The salad I made with it would be perfect on its own with some chicken, so I'm storing that away in the memory bank for the summer.

Here are some Rachael Ray posts from around the blogosphere this week. If you see a post that you think would be good for the Roundup, or you write one yourself, e-mail me (everythingrachaelray at gmail dot com) so I can be sure to include it.
