Turkey, Spinach & Bacon Meatballs

May 29th, 2013 · 1 Comment · Appetizer, Dinner, Healthy, Turkey

Anybody else out there enjoy the awkward and hilarious online cooking show made by food blog Bon Appetempt? About two months ago, I was going on a 3AM Vimeo food video binge when I came across Bon Appetempt’s “30-Minute Meal?” video. Shortly after discovering Bon Appetempt, I began watching their videos and not so […]

Roasted Cauliflower Mash (a.k.a Faux Mashed Potatoes)

May 5th, 2013 · 3 Comments · Dinner, Easy, Healthy, Side, Vegetable

Yesterday I posted a simple Roasted Cauliflower recipe, and today I am following it up with this delicious roasted cauliflower mash! Given how impressed I was with the flavour of the roasted cauliflower, I was even more impressed with these faux mashed potatoes! They were awesome!

Roasted Cauliflower

Let’s start by saying I don’t really like cauliflower, but I bought some because it was on sale…story of my life. I had high hopes for this head of cauliflower, but I felt the light fading as it sat in my fridge for one month…and then another month… Yeah. Two months.

Baked French Fries

Anyone who buys those bags of frozen french fries is just cheating themselves. Especially if you have potatoes in your cupboard. These things are so simple, so delicious, and just look at how beautiful they are! Your frozen potato sticks don’t come close! Grab a russet potato, slice it up, bake it and feel the […]

Collard Green Scrambled Egg Wrap

March 2nd, 2013 · 1 Comment · breakfast, Egg, Healthy, Vegetable, Wrap

Being new to collard greens, I am quite the fan, the large, hearty leaves make a great vegetable side dish, or a great vehicle for other ingredients! Although I kind of failed at this being a healthy recipe (see: bacon & cheese), using a collard green as a wrap instead of your typical tortilla style […]

Baked Onion Rings

Baked onion rings have been on my to-do list for a couple months now, so having plenty of free time this long weekend I finally got around to trying them out! While they can be a little bit time consuming (from unpeeled onion – to onion ring in my mouth, it probably took around an […]

Loaded Portobello Mushroom

March 24th, 2012 · 4 Comments · Appetizer, Dinner, Easy, Healthy, Potato, Side

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 […]

Earl Grey Tea Latte (London Fog)

November 13th, 2011 · No Comments · Drink, Easy

In an effort to sate my girlfriends serious addiction to Starbuck’s Earl Grey Tea Lattes I set out to see if I could easily (and cheaply) make them at home. Since I don’t own anything with a milk steamer I was unsure how this would work out, but I made do!

Homemade Potato Chips

Today I utilize another Christmas gift. But this time, I am using the gift I gave to my parents, a Cuisinart Food Slicer. Maybe I am a bad son, or maybe just a little selfish, but as I purchased this item I began dreaming up all the wonderful food I could slice up and put […]
