Cheese Fanatic

Rebekah Garcia is the food blogger behind Kitchen Gidget. She creates recipes influenced by her Midwestern roots, Hispanic heritage and insatiable sweet tooth. She loves that cheese is so varied and versatile to be used in all of those categories! When she’s not cooking cheesy goodness, you can find her at the beach with a book. She is married to the man of her dreams and home is where the military sends them. She believes food is better when shared…unless it’s the last bite!
