E112 - Off-the-Beaten Path Chicago Food Tours with Rebecca Wheeler
11/20/22 • 30 min
1 Listener
This week I talk with Rebecca Wheeler, founder of Chicago Food Walks, a company offering private food tours in Chicago's most interesting neighborhoods. We talk about how Rebecca took her culinary expertise and interest in other cultures and cuisines and turned it into a business that visits the less well-known corners of her own city - no deep dish pizza on this tour! She also shares some tips on finding a great food tour wherever your travels take you.
The meal plan for this week has recipes that will work for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or anything in between so that you can work them in around busy preparations for the upcoming holiday season. Avocado Egg Salad and 15-Minute Vegetable Soup is perfect for lunch or a light dinner, and the Smoked Salmon Brunch Board is so easy but so impressive. Head over to COOKtheSTORY.com/MealPlans to get the meal plan with links to recipes, and the grocery list worksheet that goes with it. This one is Meal Plan #112.
This meal plan is inspired by this week's sponsor, Toufayan Bakeries. Toufayan makes delicious baked goods like pita bread, wraps, bagels, and Smart Pockets. Look for them in the deli section of your grocery store, or visit the Toufayan Amazon Store. Use coupon code COOKTHESTORY by December 17, 2022 for 20% off on your first purchase.
Have a great week!
