For a night of backyard camping with her nephews and nieces, Kardea Brown is cooking brisket and bean chili with sweet mini corn muffins and vegetable medley sauté; s'mores cereal treats are perfect for everyone to enjoy around the fire.

Kardea Brown is cooking up some Tex-Mex flavors to celebrate her friend's birthday; she makes a cheesy birria dip, elote burger sliders and summer squash salad with a smoky agave vinaigrette, with pineapple upside-down cupcakes for dessert.

Kardea Brown's pal Nancy Fuller is in town, so Kardea and Nancy head to the local farmer's market to get inspired by farm-fresh goodness and grab ingredients for a delicious meal! On the menu is Lemony Herb Shrimp Scampi over Middlins Risotto and Collard Green Salad with a BBQ vinaigrette. For dessert, there's a beautiful Berries and Cream Layer Cake. As Nancy always says, "Fresh is best!"
