I have been meaning to post this recipe for a while now, but each time I make it we dig into it before getting the pictures for the blog. But today, I was determined to take pictures before sitting down to dinner. For a dish with so few ingredients, it is packed with enormous taste. [...]
Dare I say it?! Nasi Goreng-ish with a twist (of course). I was looking through old photographs in my archives and found this picture of a recipe I first made probably 15 – 20 years ago. It’s been done a few times since then and I don’t know why it never got blogged. But here [...]
Looking for a not too sweet, crunchy, chewy, moist bite of deliciousness in your day? Try these muffins! I know I’ve given you a lot of apple recipes, but you can always substitute and I listed some possible substitute for them in the recipe section below. This is a great treat for those mornings where [...]
My mum was a marvelous cook! She could make anything tasty! I think most of my love of food came from her love of cooking for us. This is one of our favorite dishes and one of the few I can duplicate thanks to her patience for translating “this much...” into “1/2 tsp...”. This is [...]
Avocado, walnuts, eggs, dark chocolate – check! Individually all good for you, combined – oh my goodness, a slice of heaven on a plate! I was out shopping the other day and bought a big bag of avocadoes. The last time I bought a big bag of avocadoes from that big store that sells everything [...]
This is a super simple cake recipe to do. Best part again is flexibility with what fruit or berries you have available at the moment or are shopping for. In my case, we eat a ton of apples so we always have apples in the fruit bowl. I'm using Ambrosia apples for this recipe, but [...]
Here’s a great Breakfast Muffin recipe. I like it because it has some whole wheat flour in it, and, the choice of flavorings can be anything you have in your pantry. I added a handful of dried coconut, dried blueberries and currants, as well as almond slices. I also made them in a mini muffin [...]
I think just about everyone has finally been able to get all purpose flour by now. If you were one of the few that bought a bag of whole wheat flour and didn't know what to do with it not that the all-purpose is available, here is a recipe for you. I have various types [...]
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I love salmon! One of my favorite fish to cook and eat! So tasty, it’s really hard to screw it up and there are so many ways to cook it - baked, broiled, pan fried, bbq (among others) and of course, my favorite - poached! [...]
Ridiculous!! This is a feel good treat. I categorized it as "Pantry Staples" because you can use really any type of fruit you have in the kitchen. The aroma while it bakes in the oven - the cinnamon and brown sugar topping - is what sells homes. So if you are a real estate agent, [...]
