Pesto + VIDEO

In a never ending quest to expand my culinary horizons and due to a large amount of fresh basil in my fridge, I decided it was time to try making pesto for the first time! It certainly won’t be my last! This stuff was delicious! I ate a significant amount just “taste-testing” the pesto and […]

Margherita Pizza

For whatever reason, this week just felt like a pizza week, but truth-be-told, every week could be pizza week because that stuff is freakin’ amazing! Especially with this ridiculously easy pizza dough recipe. It literally takes about 5 minutes to make (maybe less). For this pizza I decided to keep it simple and go with […]

Savoury Watermelon Salad

I have had visions of creating a salad in this style for quite some time and finally got around to actually doing it the other day! Along with fancying up the presentation of a watermelon salad, I wanted to try marinating watermelon and this was the perfect opportunity! Initially I had plans to add some […]

Smoked Salmon Potato Salad

Here is a recipe I created the same day I made the delicious Smoked Salmon Bagel Grilled Cheese. Given that I wanted to keep things grilled cheese focused during April, I have kept from posting it until now! Although for anybody following me on Instagram, you might remember seeing it! As I have previously mentioned, […]

The GBC (Gin, Basil, Cumber) + VIDEO RECIPE

May 13th, 2013 · 10 Comments · Drink, Fresh herbs

Inspired by a similar drink at a local Saskatoon restaurant/lounge called The Rook & Raven, I decided to try and make my own version! Cucumber and basil in a cocktail may seem like a strange combo to some, but I assure you it is delicious and very refreshing! Especially with gin! I even decided to […]

Porchetta Sandwich

In my last post, I made Porchetta inspired by the Meat & Bread’s Porchetta sandwich in Vancouver, so obviously I had to do a sandwich post too! It’s really the Porchetta that’s the star here, because there is not much else going on in this sandwich, just delicious roasted pork, crackling, and salsa verde. You’ve […]

Porchetta Pork Shoulder

Ever since eating at Meat & Bread while living in Vancouver (in 2011), I have wanted to try making my own porchetta. It’s been a long time coming, but I have finally made it!! While picking up groceries at my local Sobey’s I noticed they started stocking pork shoulder in the meat section, seizing the […]

Buttermilk Dill Chicken

March 10th, 2013 · 2 Comments · Chicken, Dinner, Easy, Fresh herbs

Having buttermilk and chicken in my fridge, and after seeing an episode of Michael Smith’s Chef at Home where he marinates chicken in buttermilk, I quickly scanned my surroundings… Surely I wasn’t just watching the Food Network, but it was watching ME… Well, turns out it wasn’t. But I took it as a sign, and […]

Pork Chop & Acorn Squash with Squash Seed Vinaigrette

February 23rd, 2013 · 2 Comments · Dinner, Easy, Fresh herbs, Pork, Side, Vegetable

Once again Bon Appetit is appealing to my taste buds with this recipe. Pork chops are a regular staple in my diet, I love acorn squash, AND simple recipes! Although I’ve never been a huge fan of cilantro, it was perfect in this recipe, really complimenting the flavour of the squash seeds, I actually found […]
