7 Recipes from Great Chefs that Families Can Make at Home

Chefs from all over the country have generously contributed their culinary skills to the ALSF Great Chefs events series, helping to raise millions of dollars for childhood cancer research. Now, many chefs are separated from their restaurants and their culinary team. Our Great Chefs from across the nation have been taking to the internet to share their favorite recipes to get you through the isolated days ahead. The hospitality industry is taking a huge hit (and you can do something about it), but these chefs are choosing to infuse our lives with their passion – and reveal a few of their secrets along the way. If you’re running out of ideas for mealtime or your culinary skills could use some sharpening, give these free lessons from the pros a whirl!

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has extended farther than many of us could have imagined. In this challenging period, we feel an extra dose of gratitude for the supporters who have helped Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation and the fight for cures for childhood cancer. Our culinary community has remained a dedicated ally. And now, our culinary community, needs us. Find out how you can help.

Alex’s Table: The Story Behind the first-ever ALSF cookbook (Plus a sneak peak of a recipe!)

“Being from Philly, I remember when Alex’s Lemonade Stand was an actual lemonade stand. It received an enormous amount of attention, rightfully so, and has evolved to be one of the most important fundraisers of our time. Fighting to end pediatric cancer is not just noble, it is necessary for the future of the human race. Whenever and wherever I am, I will be ready, willing and able to join the fight," Joey Campanaro, chef and contributor to Alex’s Table.
