Happy American Thanksgiving

Vegetarian Kishke

When I was a kid, I loved kishke. Then one day I made the mistake of asking my mom what it was. HA.. For those of you who don’t know, kishke is a stuffed section of cow intestines, I thought it was kind of chewy! The stuffing is made of bread crumbs or flour, onion,…

Turkey Breast with Sweet Potatoes & Onions

I used a delicious spice rub on a boneless skinless turkey breast. roasted it with sweet potatoes & onions… a perfect dinner for us!! The spice rub I used was a mixture of ingredients I had in my spice drawer & combined they made a very flavourful coating for the turkey breast. I used a…

Brussels Sprout & Kale Slaw

Brussels Sprouts are not my favourite vegetable by any means. Sometimes if they are roasted & seasoned with maple syrup….haha….I can eat them! But I do like them raw in this salad. I posted this recipe last year…. The original recipe has the kale & brussels sprouts cut thinly, but I like a quick prep…

Sautéed Brussels Sprouts

Puff Pastry Apple Pie

Apple Crisp

Always a welcome dessert, it seems that everyone loves Apple Crisp! Apple Crisp is so much simpler to make than pie…& I bet it is healthier too. Though I am no nutritionalist..it makes sense to me…though don’t get me wrong…I love pie!! But for a quick fruit dessert…Apple Crisp is a really delicious choice. You…

Kale Salad with Roasted Butternut Squash & Chickpeas

I saw this recipe recently on foodiecrush.com and thought it would be great for a vegetarian meal but I served it as a side salad with a frittata! This salad has kale, roasted butternut squash and chickpeas with a tahini dressing. I will be using this dressing on other things because I really liked it. I  added more…

Many people ask me "how did you do that?" "will you show me how?' So I decided to make a blog about what I cook and bake. I am in no way a professional cook, but I love to feed people and try new things as well as making the "old foods" My friends are wonderful cooks, each with their own 'specialty' and i will be having guest cooks here, showcasing their favourite things to cook as well!! I hope you enjoy this blog and maybe decide to make some of these foods yourself! I am always available to answer any questions you might have about anything you see here. Some of my recipes are unique to me but most are not. They are all recipes I have found in a variety of ways, some are old family recipes that date back decades and some are new ones!
