5 Utah Dinner Recipes to Try at Home
Fill your dinner plate with a taste of #UtahFromHome.
Written By Visit Utah

A kitchen is a special place — large or quaint, remodeled or retro. No matter the square-footage or appliance size, any cooking-space has the power to yield creativity, experimentation and a great deal of “mmmmm’s.”
We recently reached out to various Utah culinary artists and asked them to write a recipe that all chefs (yes — you!) can recreate from their homes. These dinner recipes are simple to create and designed to give you a piece of #UtahFromHome.
For right now, your culinary creations are being shared safely with those in the home, but while you mix, stir and reheat for leftovers, remember that daydreaming for your future dinner parties and back porch happy hours is still allowed. When the time is right, we hope you’ll branch out and support these local restaurants in-person. Until then, try Utah's flavors from home.
