Caprese Skewers are the perfect summer snack in our house. They’re also one of my go-to’s to bring along when someone’s having a party. I seriously can not get enough of these. Sweet cherry tomatoes, soft bocconcini cheese, fresh basil, all drizzled with a little bit of olive oil and balsamic glaze. I haven’t even…
Cheese
Apple Cheddar Muffins
My apple cheddar muffins are half biscuit, half muffin and all flavour. They’re totally the kind of snack kids love, and can pull double duty as a side for a hearty fall dinner, like my harvest stew. Apple cheddar muffins. I know, cheese and apples? Your first reaction may be to close this page as…
Tomato Sandwich
An open face tomato and cheese sandwich is the perfect quick meal for a busy day.
Healthy Cheese and Pear Crisps
Cheese and pears on a crispy slice of whole grain bread drizzled with honey and topped with walnuts. A low fat, high protein snack that satisfies!
Frittata Lyonnaise
A classic meal, Frittata Lyonnaise is packed full of onion, potato, sausage (or bacon), and gruyere cheese. It’s an amazing one pan breakfast that’s only 30 minutes from start to finish!
Cajun style stuffed BBQ chicken breasts
Cajun style chicken breasts stuffed with mozzarella cheese and sautéed peppers and onions, then grilled, make for a quick and easy weeknight meal that’s not short on flavour!
4 Layer Breakfast Skillet
An entire breakfast buffet stacked up in just one skillet. A hash-brown base is loaded with scrambled eggs, ham, and cheese. The best part though: you can customize it any way you like, with anything you like. I’m going to be mixing up my next one by adding some onions, peppers, and mushrooms!
Top 5 BBQ Recipes
These are my top five recipes for the BBQ, the ones I go back to over and over again because they never let me down.
Havarti, Pesto & Pear Grilled Cheese Sandwich
I feel like my fingers need a stretch. There is absolutely no holiday I love more than Christmas, and to do it justice, I completely break off from the blog for a couple of weeks. We go big on the 25th, but Bo’s background is part Serbian, so we always make sure to acknowledge that…
Castello Brie with Roasted Garlic
I was so excited to be asked to help promote the new movie Burnt (starring Bradley Cooper) along with Castello Cheese, which is featured in the film. I have been a movie fan for as long as I can remember, literally. My first real movie memory is of my Mom freaking out because I fell…
Three Cheese Corn Cappelletti with Pancetta
Three Cheese Corn Cappelletti with Pancetta. I show you two ways to make it: one all from scratch, and one in 30 minutes!
Croque Monsieur – The Ultimate Ham and Cheese Sandwich
Alright, here we go, back at it after a week of house-wide sickness, and then another week trying to get everything back in order and the house clean. Sorry. It’s that whole balance thing where, while I love being a blogger, until I’ve got three kids in school (aka the glory years), I’ve got a…
Summer Melon Salad
This is another throw back post to one of my favorite salads of all time. It’s just so “Summer” in every bite, and seeing as I had snow on my lawn last week, I’m desperate for a reminder. It’s just a few simple ingredients: sweet melon, salty prosciutto, mild bocconcini, fresh mint, and a squeeze…
Tilapia with Lobster Mornay Sauce
Tilapia topped with a creamy lobster mornay sauce and fresh veggies. This is my take on a recipe we used to order The Pickle Barrel in Toronto.
Spaghetti alla Carbonara
This is one of my favorite recipes to make. It’s really quick to pull together, and I always have everything on hand in the fridge and pantry, making it great for my #EffortlessApril. I’ve already got it up on the blog here, with step by step photos, because when I only had two kids I seemed…
Leftover Turkey Pocket Pies
Easter is just around the corner, and it’ll be a toss up for cooking a turkey or a ham in most houses. If you’re cooking turkey though (and maybe this will be the push you needed, even if you *just* had turkey for Christmas), here is a super easy way to use up those leftovers….
