Jim Carroll is an Arkansas farmer in Monroe County, member of the United Soybean Board and Arkansas Soybean Promotion Board, and Monroe County Farm Bureau Board Member.

Quiche is a savory egg dish often served at brunch. Usually, quiche is custard made with various combinations of cheese, meat and vegetables in a pastry crust. This broccoli cheddar quiche significantly cuts down your prep time by omitting the crust.
If you didn’t already know, May is National Beef Month. I love any excuse to eat beef. Steak, burgers, roast, anything beef is good in my book. Recently, a friend told me a tip to really tenderize steak before grilling. It will work on any cut of steak that you normally grill.
Saw this come across the Times’ Eat Arkansas blog, and I thought it would interest this audience. Congrats to the filmmakers for securing an air date!
