To accompany the Winter Squash Salad I was conjuring up, I decided to whip up an Apple Cider Vinaigrette. I wanted a vinaigrette that had some pretty bright flavours, but still added to the “comfort” of the winter squash salad. The resulting vinaigrette was light, tart, with a touch of sweetness and hints of apple […]

Pork Chop & Acorn Squash with Squash Seed Vinaigrette

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 […]

To go along with the Lemon Pepper Seared Tuna, I decided to try mustard greens and made this salad. The mustard greens are fairly bitter, so I paired it with a sweet lemon vinaigrette.

Fried Beet Arugula Salad
February 5th, 2012 · 1 Comment · Appetizer, Dinner, Healthy, Salad, Side, Vegetable
I made this salad a while back for my mom’s birthday after she had picked up several different ingredients from the farmer’s market and wanted me to construct a dinner for her! Some of those ingredients were beets, parmesan cheese and fresh berries, so I decided to go with a fresh and flavourful beet salad!

Cooking pork seemed like a flashback to our days of our Maple Leaf promo – so who wants to guess what kind of pork I used?? You’re right! Only the best – of course, Maple Leaf. These pork chops were great when crusted with the hummus and Cavender’s greek seasoning. The salad dressing was an […]

I tasted this salad the other night while out for dinner at McNally Robinson’s restaraunt “Prairie Ink” (a great local place with great ambiance and occasionally vibrant live music) and decided that I had to try making it at home. After a quick trip to Sobey’s, I was armed with my ingredients and ready to […]

Caprese Egg Sandwich

Another breakfast with Bob! Now this isn’t totally following the caprese dish, seeing as I had no basil, but I had to make do with what I had and this was the result! I was a little unsure about drizzling the balsamic olive oil vinaigrette on the egg sandwich, but i must say it was […]
