Roast Chicken Sandwich

September 27, 2015

About 15 years ago there was a cafe I’d have lunch at every so often and they had a chicken sandwich that was really great. Since then I’ve been making a similar sandwich when at home, altering some of the flavours from time to time. It’s the perfect small lunch to throw together when you …

Basil Pesto Beef Sliders

May 26, 2015

May gave us some warm days around here and we’ve been using our grill a lot. I wasn’t really intending to blog about these sliders, but decided that they were so good I had to share them now at the beginning of the season, rather than make them again later for the blog. It feels …

Crunchy Chicken Salad for Cup of Jo

May 19, 2015

Last week I had the honour to share this salad recipe with Cup of Jo readers. It’s always fun to contribute to other blogs. This is a delicious salad, something you won’t find on every menu. The dressing adds brightness and the chicken and nuts provide you with some filling protein. This salad also keeps …

Smoked Trout Snails

January 19, 2015

I’m in a January lunch box rut – everything seems boring, overly predictable or just not enticing. I’m sure it has to do with the bitter cold we’ve been dealing with and the only marginally brighter evenings. However, these little guys came to the rescue. These Smoked Trout Snails are fun for kids and adults …

Slowcooker Chicken Curry with Sweet Potato

November 19, 2014

It’ that time of year again. It’s dark outside all the time (at least when I’m home), there’s a chill in the air and bits of snow have fallen. All we really want to do is cuddle up in blankets and binge watch Scandal (which I just started this fall, so I have lots of …

Weekends can be a time where you might want to stand in the kitchen a little longer, work on an intricate meal, invite people over for multiple courses or prepare a batch of sweets for the week to come. But it might also be a time of busy engagements, such as birthday parties, swim classes …

Gazpacho with Shrimp for Style Me Pretty Living

August 28, 2014

Inspired by our trip to Spain, I created this summery gazpacho for Style Me Pretty Living. With lots of tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers being delivered by my CSA, I decided to recreate this iconic cold soup, but with shrimp like I had at a tapas restaurant. This is the perfect summer meal – it comes …

Tilapia and Shrimp Sandwich

July 30, 2014

My son is a very picky eater, but he does eat fish in every shape or form. In light of that, I try to cook fish at least once a week and this time I was thinking of a fun summery dinner. Summer screams lobster rolls and po-boy sandwiches, so this is a riff on …

A Summer Fête – Special Edition

June 18, 2014

Here in Canada we have long, cold and dreary winters. I’m not a winter person, so summer can’t come fast enough. Once the temperature heats up a bit I love to invite people over for outdoor BBQ’s, dinner on the lawn or just a casual picnic. The season is so short, I think we need …

Mussels in White Wine

March 10, 2014

I love mussels, I love the simplicity of them, the drips of broth on my fingers and that they come together easily – really without a recipe. Mussels are versatile – add to the pot what you like and you’ll end up with a wonderful light broth – nothing too heavy. This was the perfect …
