Spicy Pork & Kimchi Noodles
Noodles, thank you for everything you are. Today was a snow day in my part of the Canadian East coast. Do snow days exist where you live? Basically for us that meant that our city was shut down today. No going anyway. Crazy amount of snow, blowing wind, all that good stuff. AKA – comfy pants, […]

Pulled Chicken Mac & Cheese
Happy New Year everyone!!!! 2016!! Seriously, 2016. It’s almost hard to believe. 2015 seemed to completely fly by, in the best of ways. If time flies when you’re having fun, then 2015 was soaring at light speed. Such an amazing year, full of adventure, travel, SO MUCH FOOD, and crazy exciting opportunities. And I, for […]

Garlic Chili Kumato Pasta with Fresh Mozzarella
The holidays are here. It’s official. As I write this, gazing through my office window at the Maritime snow storm blanketing my city, I am very aware that winter is here. Ol’ Saint Nick is just around the corner. For the home cook, chef, and avid eater, the holidays are an especially wonderful time. The […]

Roast Chicken Fusilli with Garlic Cream Sauce
Monday, what’s up. Be kind to us, please. Friends! How’s your week been? Good? Good. September in our part of the world is in full swing. Trees are starting to change, the mornings are getting a little chilly, and pumpkins are rocking the market. This time of year is, in my opinion, perfect, though. Summer […]

Tagliatelle with Rainbow Trout, Roasted Tomatoes, and Buffalo Mozzarella
Last weekend I spent two days in one of my favourite places on earth. Fundy National Park in New Brunswick, Canada is one of the most beautiful places on earth. Yes, I’m biased. Yes, I’m probably right. I’ve spent years going to the park to camp, hike, visit waterfalls, watch beavers swim in the pond…one […]

Grilled Shrimp Noodle Stir-fry
Shrimp. Shrimp is new to me. Well, new(ish) in the grand scheme of things, anyway. It’s one of those foods that everyone else around me seemingly chowed on the daily, but based on my non-seafood eating childhood, shrimp was, to me, akin to that crazy food on Fear Factor. No interest, no thanks. Thankfully, a […]

Caprese Pasta Bake
Last week was wonderful. The sun was shining as bright as July. There were t-shirts and flip-flops as far as the eye could see. And patio hang outs were the dinner local of choice. This week…not. so. much. RAAAAAAIIIIIIIINNNNNNNN. It’s freezing in Atlantic Canada, and has been raining for what feels like a year (or […]

Beef Noodle Stir Fry
If you’re anything like me (which it’s fairly safe to say that most of you are), you love food. You love delicious food. And you love to take the time to cook delicious food. But some nights, after a long day full of surprises (*see stress), all you want to do is sit on the […]

Lobster Ramen
At this point in the game, it’s no secret to anyone that I love noodles. All kinds, all flavour, all shapes & sizes. Love em equally. When I was a kid, we ate a lot of ramen at school. Seriously, this is what we would do. We would go to the local gas station, buy […]

Rigatoni with Ricotta & Kale Basil Pesto
Two food processor based recipes in two days! I know, right!? Simple, quick, delicious, other adjectives, etc etc etc amen. Pasta. Let’s chat a second about how wonderfully versatile pasta really is, shall we. Most cultures in the world have some form of noodle based dish that they call their own. And thankfully, along […]
