I’ve never had much luck with recipes requiring yeast. Either the dough didn’t rise, or I over-proofed it and it collapsed. Recipes calling for yeast always seemed very science-y to me. You know, requiring you adhere to the recipe exactly. I will say that this recipe does require you follow the steps to the letter, […]
Possibly an exaggeration, but ultimately, that’s the kind of dinner I’m looking for during the week. Today’s recipe came about somewhat haphazardly when wandering through the aisles of our new local grocery store. You know you live in a small town when the opening of the grocery store leads to near riot type of excitement. […]
Salads in the summer appeal to me for a couple reasons: I don’t like heating my house any more than I have to and I don’t often feel like having a heavy meal when it’s hot outside. Enter this salad.
Back in the kitchen and looking for a challenge, I decided to tackle pork carnitas. In fact, I had big plans to make my own tortillas too, but the motivation ran out after several hours were spent in the kitchen. I searched for ages, trying to find a recipe for carnitas that didn’t involve using […]
I’m not eating eggs that often. I love eggs and this is very upsetting. In fact, I had blood taken for a food sensitivity test and it let me know that I shouldn’t be eating any dairy, egg whites, corn, peas, or food or drink made using brewer’s yeast. Essentially, all of the things that […]
Happy New Year! It’s the 6th, so I guess we’re getting to the point where it’s no longer necessary to mention that it’s 2018. I have several new cookbooks to share recipes with you this year. Today’s recipe is for Mango Apple Ceviche and it’s really good. It’s from the new Smitten Kitchen cookbook, which […]
Kale. How do you feel about kale? This following recipe is a super easy recipe for a simple kale salad. It requires minimal effort, but is quite filling and, without a doubt, healthy! I enjoy it as a main, but it could easily be a great accompaniment to a meal. This is a similar, but […]
I’ve left you for so long, I decided that my first recipe back better be killer. THIS recipe deserves all the praise. It may stop your heart, because it certainly isn’t healthy, but it is delicious. Yes, it’s another NY Times Cooking recipe. Have you subscribed yet? You may want to after you try: “Crisp […]
I’m sure by now you’ve gathered how much I love pasta and different pasta dishes. This recipe is another great NYT Cooking find that is absolutely amazing. It’s ridiculously easy to make and is big on flavours. (Have you subscribed to NYT Cooking yet? I swear they’re not paying me to advertise their stuff!) Start […]
Hello there. I took some time off. I was in a bit of a recipe rut again. It’s either feast or famine when it comes to recipes, but I’m back. I’m back with a real hit. A new favourite, actually. It’s for rice with poached eggs. I know, it sounds extremely boring and uneventful. It […]
