Butter Chicken
Butter Chicken, aka Flavour City. There are days that you step into the kitchen, open your fridge, and decide that on a scale of 1-10, you’re at a BLT level of cooking energy. You want to be in & out in 10 minutes flat. Back to the couch. And back to your marathon style “Suits”…

Eggs Benedict Breakfast Pizza
This may be my new favourite breakfast pizza. Margarita, you’ll always have my pizza heart, but this one is a zinger. But sometimes when brunch time rolls around, you want to be able to eat pizza without shame. To boldly breakfast, where few have breakfast’d before. This is perfect for a crowd, and they won’t…

Lemon Glazed Raspberry Yoghurt Loaf
At my house, Sunday afternoons are for Netflix marathons, huge plates of nachos, and the comfiest of pants. And as with most Sunday’s this year, it’s snowing today. Again. Seriously, isn’t it Spring! Not in Canada friends. Not in Canada. So this Sunday, I’m rocking the world of comfort to the max with an Arrested…

Baked Ravioli. Comfort food, embodied.
It’s National Ravioli Day. More days like this, please. Also, pizza/burger/pie/ice cream day. Bless you, too. Never leave me. I cook all the time, usually 6 or 8 dishes a day when I’m recipe testing. Some of these days I want beautifully plated, gorgeous, locally sourced dishes…and sometimes you just want comfort food x a…

Coconut Curry Mussels
Living on the east coast of Canada, you might assume that I grew up on a diet of seafood and maple syrup. But I really didn’t get into the world of seafood, and most specifically shellfish, until I was in university. My family just really didn’t eat shellfish, and probably because of that, it kind of scared me.…

The Art of Grilled Cheese.
When I was in University, I couldn’t cook. At all. Lunch for me basically consisted of overcooked macaroni with butter, salt, & pepper, garlic fingers (food icon of the Canadian Maritimes), and the grilled cheese sandwich. Honestly, it’s kind of amazing that I’m still alive after that (not to mention years of playing in a…

Creamy Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons
Everyone needs a crazy comforting, super easy, 30 minute meal, that they can make on the fly with ingredients straight out of the cupboard. In our house, I cook all day/every day. And some days, that means multiple doughnut, ice cream, or cinnamon bun recipe testings. Not that I’m complaining in any way, but I’ve…

Homemade Pop-Tarts
Pop-Tarts. There are few things I loved more as a kid (or a poor college student) as I loved pop-tarts. K-D maybe….but seriously, POP-TARTS. So good. They were my after school snack for years. They’re fun, especially if you’ve got little ones, and they’re really easy to make. If you’ve made a pie from scratch…
