I got a note a little while ago from MaryKate telling me that she recently got a grill and was hoping to hear my thoughts on a winter grilling.

Would love more kids recipes for future newsletters! 🥰

My tip for the tofu lovers out there is to oil your grill beforehand as tofu will stick to the grill otherwise!
