Back to School Recipes with @GLEEonFOX

The end of Summer is approaching fast. A little too fast if you ask me. It feels like just yesterday I was making end of the year gifts for the kid's teachers. 

With the end of Summer being just around the corner and the new school year approaching fast, I wanted to share a couple of recipes from one of my favorite shows, Glee! If you're a fan of the show none of these recipes will surprise you as these are what some of our favorite characters from McKinley High have either made or have eaten on the show.
