I have been wanting to try making stuffed skin chicken breasts for several months now, and had purchased the chicken, put it in the freezer, but never gotten around to making it until now. Since I had just gotten back from Jamaica, my fridge was a void of empty space, and so began the raid […]

June 4th, 2012 · 8 Comments · JC100, Potato, soup, Summer Fresh
We are now on week five of trying various recipes of Julia Child’s – hard to believe time is zipping by this quickly. When we received this soup recipe I was quite excited because potatoes are one of my favourite veggies and leeks are pretty sweet too with their fun, light onion taste. With this […]

Loaded Portobello Mushroom

It’s time for another portobello recipe! This one is real easy and a great healthy platform for all those wonderful things you put on a loaded baked potato (which may not be so healthy!). I’m pretty sure you could put sour cream, bacon, chives and cheese on anything and it would taste awesome, so this […]

After watching an episode of the Food Network’s Diner’s Drive-ins & Dives where they made a potato crusted salmon, I was inspired to try making my own variation, so here’s what I came up with.
