For over 150 years, Americans have come together to celebrate those who have fought and died for American freedom on Memorial Day. Each year, the holiday honors the fallen men and women of the five Armed Forces, who spent each day protecting the American people. In honor of Memorial Day, we’re featuring five books depicting each of the five branches through the years.

Looking for the best Cinco de Mayo recipes? I have rounded up my favorites for you! Let’s start with a quick history lesson. Don’t confuse Cinco de Mayo and Mexican Independence Day – that’s on September 16th. Cinco de Mayo commemorates May 5, 1862, the date that the Mexican Army had an unlikely victory over the French in the Battle of Puebla. The Mexicans were outnumbered, and the French Army was better equipped, but the Mexicans were victorious. This was a major victory that lifted the spirits and patriotism of the Mexican people and  added strength to the resistance movement. Some people have argued that if the Mexicans didn’t defeat the French in the Battle of Puebla, that the French might have fought with the Confederacy in the American Civil War and which may have led to a different outcome. So… maybe it isn’t so silly that Cinco de Mayo tends to be more celebrated in America than Mexico. The Best Cinco de Mayo Recipes: Now that we have a little more context, here are my...

Good old-fashioned chicken Parmesan gets the skillet treatment in this one-pot dish. Serve with rice or spaghetti for comfort food at its finest—and fastest! One of the first classic Italian dishes I mastered was a traditional chicken Parmesan. It’s a special dish but does require some serious work. A classic chicken Parmesan recipe will probably take a few hours to fry, bake, and clean up. As a reward, however, it’ll make a huge amount of food. This Skillet Chicken Parmesan has all the same flavors as the traditional version, but is ready in much less time. Plus, everything is made in one oven-safe skillet! Can you say  easy cleanup ?! EASY CHICKEN PARM IN ONE SKILLET The only thing you need to make this recipe happen is a good oven-safe skillet for cooking everything. I use a cast iron skillet with high sides. First, I bread and then lightly fry the chicken on the stove top in a little olive oil. You could use any oil you have, but I like the flavor olive oil gives. Jus...
