One of my favorite ways to spend a relaxing weekend is to binge watch cooking shows. I’m a huge fan of the old school favorites like Chopped and Top Chef but lately, I’ve been impressed by the cooking and baking shows streaming on Netflix. Some are light and funny like Nailed It! others like Ugly Delicious will tug at your heartstrings while making you hungry.
