I’m officially retiring bread croutons (that’s a lie). BUT! I must tell you that these Garlic Parmesan Smashed Potatoes that I piled on top of this Caesar Salad with Steak have all that crouton crunch plus a fluffy centre and they are so good at holding onto all that yummy […]
I’d rather not say I’ve been living under a rock, but apparently, I’ve been living under a rock. Instead of mashing these bananas with a fork like I always do (like an idiot, apparently), I just threw them in the mixer and that wonderful guy mashed them up in a […]
Always wanted to know how to make Strawberry Tanghulu ? This crunchy, crackly candied treat is so fun, so good, and actually easy to make. Tanghulu Strawberries are crunchy candied strawberries… juicy, ripe strawberries are covered in a crunchy candy shell… and they are just magic. How could that not […]
There are cookies… and then there are cookies that feel like a seasonal event. These Mini Egg Cookies are the second kind. Soft, impossibly chewy centres, lightly crisp edges, big chunks of crunchy chocolate mini eggs in every bite. I perfected these through a lot of quality control and it […]
This Sheet Pan Chimichurri Chicken and Potatoes!! Friends, I have to confess… I don’t generally make dinners I’m not excited about. It’s either something I reeeeaaally want to eat… or it’s takeout. And in some cases, a box of mac and cheese makes an appearance as a very necessary life […]
I know what you’re thinking… Blueberry Sourdough Bread with white chocolate? Really? Did she really do that? Yes. Really. She really did. And I know what else you’re thinking… ummm… are we still in The Pypers Kitchen? Yes, friends. We are. And listen… I know this recipe takes patience, which […]
I like to call this Quinoa Arugula Salad the forbidden salad and I’ll quickly tell you why… I love arugula salads. I love them so much that I go for periods of time where I’ll make one every single day. I have made them so much that my family will […]
I’m about to take every kid’s favourite food and glow it up so us grown ups can indulge without the shame I know you feel when you order them in a restaurant. These Cornflake Chicken Strips are oven baked until deeply golden and super crisp, coated in seasoned cornflake crumbs […]
It’s still January and we’re (mostly) keeping it clean around here which means I must come up with treats that fit with our virtuous vibe so that I don’t go insane. So here I am with these Oatmeal Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies… They’re super chewy with crisp edges and […]
Crispy on the outside and cheesy on the inside, these Cheesy Spinach Quinoa Bites are one of those recipes that somehow work for everything. Appetizer? Yep. Light dinner? Totally. Meal prep snack you eat straight from the fridge while standing at the counter? Absolutely. I started making these a zillion […]
Welcome to my site! I'm a self-taught, home cook who pretty much lives in the kitchen. Or with my nose in a cookbook. Cooking is my passion, my obsession, my very favourite thing. I make a lot of really good comfort food with creative twists and bolder flavours. My food is slightly elevated but isn't too fussy. I'm not here to teach you how to cook, I'm here to inspire you, to show you something new and really, really good. And to make you hungry. In my home, in The Pypers Kitchen, this is what we eat.
