Sweet Chili Corn Cakes are simple to make, coming together quiet quickly. Use fresh, frozen or canned corn for this recipe, whichever one is most convenient. They’re delicious served with the sweet chili sauce, avocado, sour cream, green onion & lime wedges. You can add them to a lettuce cup & enjoy a fresh lettuce […]
Simple to make all in one pan Creamy Tarragon Mustard Chicken is a version of the French classic poulet a l’estragon (though the French recipe uses chicken breasts). Creamy, decadent, flavourful yet easy & (virtually) foolproof. Comforting, this is a bit of a reminder of old-school cooking. Tarragon has a subtle anise flavor. If you […]
For when you want dinner done fast Thai Pineapple Beef Stir-Fry delivers on flavor, speed & texture. Ground beef saves time – no chopping! I use frozen pineapple chunks. This means you can enjoy fresh pineapple but without having to peel, core & chop. The sauce is a combination of typical Thai flavors: red curry […]
This salad pairs so well with ham, roasted boar, duck, pheasant, beef & game meats such as deer or elk. If you can’t find blood oranges or Cara Cara oranges, use navel oranges & perhaps Seville oranges or ruby red grapefruit for tartness. I like the combination of the three orange varieties and the lemon […]
When you want to get breakfast made as efficiently as possible, Berry Pancake Bake is your answer. Pancakes aren’t particularly difficult once you’re past the first initial one or two that never seem to quite make the team & need to be eaten stove side as you’re cooking the remaining pancake batter which you hope […]
While many of us are still facing the winter chills, I want to share a bright & sunshiny recipe to speak to warmer days ahead. Though the recipe title might sound a little odd if you’ve never enjoyed pickled strawberries, I promise the results are delicious. The combination of the tartness of the vinegar the […]
There’s no comparison between a homemade Caesar salad and one with processed ingredients. Yes, they’re convenient but this salad can be made in 15 to 20 minutes & is infinitely better than ready-made. This is the only way I like to eat this salad – made from scratch. Soak the lettuce first, then get the […]
A pot roast requires very little effort. Once the beef has been browned, developing nice caramelization which equals extra flavor, then the other ingredients are added – wine, carrots, onion, garlic, rosemary – the usual culprits, then into the oven it goes. Three hours later you’re gifted with a succulent meat & tender veg. All […]
The pancakes are so good: light & fluffy, perfect for a slow start to the weekend. To make the morning pancake making as stress-free as possible, have the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients measured out separately, storing the wet ingredients in the fridge. Add the blueberries just before you go to make the pancakes. […]
Key Lime Pie is so easy to make, doesn’t have a long list of ingredients & it’s completely make-ahead. Having made this with the regular Persian limes and with key limes I can tell you both are good so if you’re struggling to find key limes, use whatever limes you can find just don’t be […]
It’s hard to pinpoint exactly what time of the day these are best served. I’ve had them for brunch, lunch and dinner – hot and cold leftovers, and suffice to say they were splendid each time. I love them served as part of a leisurely brunch because they can be assembled ahead of time and […]
Sticky strips of chicken with a creamy avocado dressing, a quickle of red cabbage makes a delicious meal. Don’t let what appears to be a laundry list of ingredients dissuade you from making these smoky, sticky tacos: several of the ingredients are repeated in each component of the recipe. The chicken can be marinated a […]
