Our Cooking with Kopi & Elaine segments was our way of keeping Kopi on TV while he was sheltering-at-home.

The segments were so well-received that we decided to have them whip up more goodies for you to try at home.

Keep watching Great Day and check the What's For Dinner? webpage for more recipes.
