Korean Meatballs – Sweet & Spicy In 30 Minutes
Korean style meatballs that are baked in the oven, then coated in a sweet (and as spicy as you want it) glaze. They’re start to finish in just 30 minutes!
Easy Peri-Peri Chicken
Peri-Peri style chicken is coated in this indescribably delicious and complex tasting marinade that has a bit of heat layered within some incredible smoky and garlicky flavour. I became obsessed with ordering it in on those crazy hectic nights, but my wallet demanded I learn how to make a quick and easy version of it at home.
5 Minute Fresh Salsa
When I went grocery shopping last week there was a pile of tomatoes still on the stem that looked incredible. They instantly made me want salsa like at the restaurant, where it’s fresh and cool, and just full of flavour. I have never had a jarred salsa that I liked, other than homemade (thanks Mom),…
Chicken Fried Rice
This recipe is all thanks to Stephanie (so thanks Stephanie!). She pointed out on Instagram that it’s delicious and I need to have the recipe up on the blog. I, fool that am I, never thought to post it, because it’s too easy. Ummm, some days I think I live in a giant brain fart….
5 Minute Pantry Pineapple Cream Pie
This is a family favourite recipe, one that my Mom made all the time when I was growing up, and that the kids and I still absolutely love. The best part: it literally takes 5 minutes or less to throw together with things you can keep on hand in your pantry. It does need to…
Baked Summer Chicken with Fresh Tomato Salsa
The way to put a smile on Bo’s face most nights is to string together “chicken” and “breaded” when describing dinner. It’s summer though, and the last thing I felt like last night while in a rush to get dinner ready was heating up some oil, and dealing with the clean up. Also, we could…
Cajun Style Shrimp Pasta
The is one of my go-to dinners right now, because it’s super fast and easy, and tastes really (REALLY) good. It’s a lot like the Cajun chicken pasta that you can get at Chili’s, and if you wanted to use chicken instead of shrimp, go for it. I’ve put the spice level at about a…
Ancho Chili and Tequila Glazed BBQ Chicken Thighs
You might have noticed from the last couple recipe posts that I live in two seasons. Winter, where I hibernate and seem to rarely cook anything exciting, and BBQ season. I love BBQ season almost as much as I love my kids. Hell, in another few months when I can have a beer while I…
Brushetta Style BBQ Pork Chops
Oh man, am I ever excited to share this recipe with you guys. Hands down, this is my new summer jam for dinner. It was so incredibly easy to whip up, it was AWESOME tasting, and the best part, it made it look like I really knew what I was doing. This is a dinner…
Sausage Crostini
Alright, this has to be one of the quickest and easiest things you’ll find to make. The day I made these, I did them as a side. I made some fresh cheese ravioli in a light tomato sauce, and I knew that Bo would be looking for a hit of meat somewhere (he’s not a…
Summer Salad with Cantaloupe, Bocconcini, Prosciutto and Mint
Alright, getting back in to the swing of things around here with a super quick and easy salad. It’s delicious too. What isn’t delicious about juicy balls of fresh melon, soft mild cheese, salty cured meat, and brisk mint. I mean honestly, I could probably eat this daily for a month before I was sick…
Italian Style Sausage and Peppers
I’ve been making this dish for a while now, but it always felt like there was something missing in it. I had gone through a bunch of different recipes, but they were all variations of the same. It wasn’t until I got this great cookbook to review “Lidia’s Favorite Recipes by Lidia Bastianich” that it…
No Bake Berry Cheesecake
Alright, I’ve got a ridiculously easy dessert here that tastes like summer. That’s all I could think digging into it last night, looking out the back window at all the snow. This is one of the most refreshing desserts I’ve every had, and it’s exactly the pick-me-up this house needed after a lazy weekend spent…
Pork Florentine Casserole
Alright, all cards on the table: I hate spinach. I have never found a way to eat it where I didn’t think it tasted like old socks. Being the great wife that I am though, when I saw the picture of golden brown, Parmesan crusted pork chops nestled in a bed of creamed spinach, I…
Fillets of Sole Muenière
You wouldn’t really know it, but I’ve been taking part in the JC100. It’s a celebration of Julia Child where bloggers from all over the world have been cooking her classic and memorable dishes, in honor of what would have been her 100th Birthday. We all get one recipe delivered to us each week, to…
