We’ve eaten a lot of black beans & chick peas this winter on Meatless Mondays. Recipes that are good sources of protein, but I’m a little bored of them already and I only make a meatless meal once a week! When I went to the Food & Drink Show in Hamilton last month, I was introduced to Paneer cheese as another protein option for ... Read More »
Good afternoon & Happy Meatless Monday! This week, I made my Meatless Monday meal on Sunday, but it’ll taste just as good on a Monday – I promise you! Pancakes are often a breakfast meal, but I tossed in some veggies and herbs to make these savory pancakes a great & filling dinner! I made these with El Peto Gluten ... Read More »
I love, love, LOVE breakfast. I could eat breakfast for every meal of the day. I really enjoy going out for breakfast (a very rare occurrence, now that we’ve got kids!), but I always have such a hard time figuring out what to order because I want to eat it ALL! The Hungry Man Breakfast with sausages, bacon, eggs, and pancakes? ... Read More »
I made these empenadas last week for the first time. They were a huge hit with everyone, so I thought that when I made them again today, they’d be the star of the table. However. I added a side of Mexican Sweet Potato Mash tonight, and it blew me away. I almost ate half the pot before it hit the ... Read More »

Heads up: this recipe is neither.This is my second time making this dish for Meatless Mondays this fall – as many good recipes & ideas as there are out there, this one was a real hit & the zucchini is still coming out of the garden on a regular ...

Last week sort of knocked me flat on my back, and I didn’t even have kids heading to school. I did, on the other hand, start babysitting – and had 2 long (7:30-5:30) days of 5 kids under 5. Between recovering from the Long Weekend’s antics, babysitting, and trying to get my house in some sort of respectable shape (I ... Read More »
I happened to get a bunch of zucchini on clearance yesterday and wanted to do something fun with it. The kids and I searched on Pinterest and decided on zucchini boats. (They also thought we should try to float them on water before eating them…) I looked at a variety of recipes and settled on winging it with ingredients on ... Read More »
Happy Meatless Monday! I’m going to share with you a recipe that I tried out a couple weeks ago – and I REALLY apologize for horrible pics – they don’t look good, but the dinner was actually really tasty! It was the kind of meal that I felt could have been served on April Fools – Gluten-free pasta with alfredo sauce ... Read More »
I’ve tried a few different Eggplant Parm recipes in the past couple years, but all of them just required way too much work for me to repeat them again – the egging, breading, & frying BEFORE all of the work to make them actually happens! So I was thrilled to find this recipe from Chic galleria in which the eggplant was ... Read More »
Along with those super delicious spinachballs that my two-year-old just devoured, I made an attempt at my very first soufflé.My first exposure to soufflé was watching Sabrina (the classic movie with Audrey Hepburn, not the teenage witch). She learned how to bake a soufflé when she went off to cooking school in Paris. “A woman happily in love, she burns ... Read More »
