Back in my college days, I tended to eat the same meals at the same dining halls. We had an Au Bon Pain in our student union, and their chicken mozzarella sandwich was a favorite of mine. My original post was a copycat of that recipe, but I’ve updated this post to reflect the new…
Back in my college days, I had the finest food offerings at my disposal. Despite nine dining halls and countless entrees, I ate pretty much the same things day in and day out. Chicken quesadillas were one staple of my diet from the Cantina at Owens Dining Hall. So Mac and I have recreated them…
