I’ve got an entire meal cooked up for you today. Crispy skinned chicken thighs topped with my citrus spiked BBQ glaze and a charred corn salad. It’s well known that my favourite season is BBQ season because for me it lasts all year. You can find me cooking outside no matter how much snow is…
Vegetables
Best Potato Wedges Ever
These are hands down, the best potato wedges ever. Not just absolutely delicious and perfectly seasoned, they’re super easy to make too! Quick to prep, effortless to cook, and almost too easy to devour!
Caprese Skewers
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…
Fall Harvest Stew
My fall harvest stew is loaded with butternut squash, parsnips, onions, apples, potatoes, chicken, and fresh cider. It’s absolute perfection paired on a crisp fall day with some apple cheddar muffins! Fall has always been my favourite season. I’ve never been a sun worshiper, the heat just ain’t my thing. In the fall though, when the…
Indian inspired cucumber salad
An Indian inspired cucumber salad with tomatoes, peppers, and red onion with a yogurt and lemon dressing that’s delicious on it’s own, or as a way to cool the spice from another dish.
Orange Sesame Crispy Chicken Bowl
A delicious (and fast!) Orange Sesame Chicken bowl done in 30 minutes. This is a new weeknight favorite!
roasted garlic mashed potatoes
Roasted garlic mashed potatoes so creamy, sweetly garlicky, and buttery that you’ll never make regular ones again!
Chili Chicken & Shrimp Tortilla Bowls
These chili chicken and shrimp tortilla bowls with cilantro slaw and pico de gallo are a great way to pull a meal together fast! A total life saver on my busy sports nights!
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!
English Style Roast Potatoes
Before we get to the recipe is it ok if I just bitch for a minute. I’d like to say I have a Mother’s instinct, but really, it’s just that my kids are so damn predictable that I KNOW when life is about to go tits-up. Last night was one of those nights. I ran…
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!
BBQ Jerk Chicken Pizza #GrillWithGrace
UPDATE: I’ve included the recipe for regular (non-jerk style) BBQ chicken in the notes section of the recipe as well! There is nothing more that I enjoy in the summer then grilling a meal outside. The kids can go crazy in the backyard, Bo can relax with Sophie on the daybed, and I can stand at…
Ultimate Macaroni Salad – Amish style with eggs and cheese
There are a few things that you just can not buy. I was walking around, trying to pick out some easy sides for a BBQ last Saturday, trying to make life easier by not making everything from scratch. I picked up the macaroni salad (it was basically fluorescent orange), I looked at the tiny little…
Truffled Steak Salad
A week ago I got to take a trip back to McEwan Foods in Toronto. This store holds really great memories for me. The first time I was there, I wandered around for 45 minutes, in absolute awe of everything you could buy, and stocking up on probably a little too much. I had just…
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.
